Mastervac

What Mastervac does

Mastervac is an Italian industrial vacuum and aspiration equipment manufacturer headquartered in Settimo Torinese, Italy, with 30 years of continuous operation (founded 1997) and a headcount in the 51–100 range. The company designs and produces a broad portfolio of industrial vacuums, centralized aspiration systems, dust collectors, and pneumatic conveying systems, organized across distinct product lines targeting specific industrial applications. These include single-phase wet/dry vacuums (M Series), three-phase heavy-duty vacuums (TS Series up to 25 kW), ATEX-certified explosion-proof models (zones 20, 21, 22 including combined gas/dust), oil and chip separation systems (MEKA), heavy-duty lobe pump units for foundries and steel mills (MHV, 800–1000 liter capacity), dust collectors (FLOW), fine dust extraction (XCOLLECTOR), machine-mounted integrated units (AFM, ASM, MBF/MBFV, MS FIXE, ZEFIRO CUBE), and centralized installations with pneumatic conveying in dense and dilute phase. Technical differentiation is centered on regulatory certifications (ATEX zones 20/21/22, EN IEC 62784:2018, BGIA, OSHA/silica), HEPA H14 absolute filtration at 99.995% efficiency at 0.18 microns, proprietary self-cleaning filter systems (Selfclean/PN) for continuous 24/7 operation, and sealed disposal mechanisms (Endless Bag 20-meter system) for hazardous dust containment.

The company operates a sales-led, project-based go-to-market model targeting industrial buyers across metalworking/CNC maintenance, heavy manufacturing (steel mills, foundries, cement plants), hazardous material handling (pharmaceutical, toner, asbestos), construction and surface treatment, and centralized systems integrators in food, pharmaceutical, and chemical sectors. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time capital equipment sales with a quote-based pricing model; no recurring subscription or service revenue is disclosed. Aftermarket accessories, filter media, hoses, and spare parts provide a secondary revenue stream tied to the installed base. The company reaches international markets through dedicated language websites for Italy, France, English-speaking markets, and Spain, with primary geographic concentration appearing to be Italy and broader Europe. Marketing and lead generation are conducted primarily through the multi-language corporate website, an extensive product technical downloads portal, and 13 industry-specific solution pages, with no disclosed social media, paid advertising, or developer relations programs.
