What Novaltec Group does

Novaltec Group S.r.l. is an Italian industrial cleaning machinery manufacturer founded in 1994 and headquartered in Scorzè, in the province of Venice. The company designs, produces, and sells a complete portfolio of professional and industrial cleaning and sanitization equipment, including saturated dry-steam generators (power range 1.8 kW to 48 kW, temperatures up to 180°C), ozone-based sanitizers, HEPA H13 and Class H (EN 1822:2019) air purifiers, automated conveyor-belt cleaning systems (Belt-Steam and Robo-Steam), and a certified medical-device disinfectant (Sterilnova Plus). Its core technology centers on saturated dry-steam delivery combined with IoT-enabled 4.0 connectivity through the My-Novaltec telematic platform, which provides Wi-Fi-based remote monitoring, filter-status indication, and predictive maintenance scheduling across the installed base.

The company serves B2B customers across at least six verticals — Ho.Re.Ca. (hotels, restaurants, cafés), automotive and car-wash detailing, food and beverage processing, mechanical engineering and metal degreasing, public transport, and automotive/clinical sanitization — with HACCP-compliant products addressing both chemical-free cleaning requirements and food-safety regulatory standards. The flagship Pawnee professional steam generator has accumulated over 20,000 units installed in Italy alone. Newer industrial offerings include the Atlantis 18.0/30.0 line (2025) for large industrial environments and High-Steamer/Eno-Steam specialty units for the mechanical and wine industries.

Novaltec operates a quote-based B2B sales model through website contact forms and a domestic Italian network of authorized technicians and sales outlets, with no public pricing disclosed. Distribution is primarily single-country (Italy), though the company maintains an international .com web presence and participates in trade shows such as Sigep 2023 with support from Regione Veneto's international development program, signaling selective export activity in Europe. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investment, funding rounds, M&A activity, or public listing.
