What Baccarelli Group does

Baccarelli Group is a privately held, family-controlled Italian energy and petroleum products group founded in 1949, headquartered in Pantalla di Todi, Perugia. The group operates through seven wholly owned subsidiaries spanning petroleum product trading (Baccarelli Nazareno Sas), transport and logistics with a 16-vehicle ADR-compliant fleet (Socobit Sas, ISO 9001 certified since 2000), retail fuel distribution across 9 stations in Perugia Province (Bigest Sas and B_New Srl), modified bitumen and emulsions production (PBM Sas, holding an international patent for RAP regeneration), petroleum trading (Panoil Energia Sas, acquired from API Spa in 2008), technical gases distribution under exclusive partnership with Sapio Group (Baccarelli Gas & Tecnologie Srl), and adjacent tourism/wine operations (Il Collino di Todi Sas).

The group's core technology centers on bitumen chemistry — specifically the MASTER modified bitumen line, ACF functional chemical activators for recycled asphalt, ETB eco-compatible bitumens, COLORBIT colored bitumens, and TIEPIMIX warm-mix additives that reduce compaction temperatures from 180°C to 120°C. PBM has specialized in bituminous binders for over 30 years. The product portfolio spans conventional and renewable diesel (HVO from waste vegetable oils reducing CO2 emissions by up to 90%), agricultural and heating diesel, gasoline, fuel oils, lubricants distributed from API Group, LPG (as official Liquigas spa agency since 2011), and technical gases including welding supplies (with exclusive Umbria distribution of KEMPPI and STEL equipment). Renewable energy generation via three photovoltaic installations and one biomass cogeneration plant, operational since 2009, sells electricity to GSE.

Revenue is generated through transaction-fee models across all product lines with entirely quote-based pricing and no public rate disclosure. The go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales (industrial, agricultural, construction clients served via the owned fleet), retail consumer fueling at owned stations, and channel partnerships (Liquigas, Sapio). Additional professional services revenue comes from excise recovery consulting (up to €4,320 per 10,000 liters), plant management consulting, and technical assistance. Geographic focus is regional — Umbria and central Italy — with extra-network commercial sales spanning the national territory. The group has no public listing, no institutional investors, and remains under family control with Leonardo Baccarelli leading the parent entity.

• Q8 (Kuwait Petroleum Italia): Q8 operates a large network of branded fuel stations and wholesale fuel distribution across Italy. While much larger, it shares the same regional retail/wholesale petroleum distribution model and competes for the same Italian transport, agricultural, and heating customers as Baccarelli.
• Tamoil Italia: Tamoil Italia is a mid-sized Italian petroleum company operating both retail fuel stations and wholesale fuel distribution across multiple Italian regions. It is directly comparable to Baccarelli as a regional-scale petroleum distributor with branded retail and B2B fuel supply.
• Iterchimica S.p.A. Iterchimica is an Italian specialty chemical company developing innovative bituminous binders and asphalt additives for road construction, including recycled asphalt pavement technologies. It is directly comparable to PBM as a domestic Italian bitumen technology specialist serving the same road construction and infrastructure market.
• Gruppo API: Gruppo API is an Italian integrated petroleum company producing fuels and lubricants (the products Baccarelli distributes under partnership). It serves as both a supplier and a comparable peer for regional Italian fuel distribution and lubricant marketing.
• Sapio Group: Sapio Group is an Italian leader in technical and industrial gases and Baccarelli's distribution partner since 2013. Sapio provides gases and welding supplies to industrial, food, and laboratory customers in the same central Italy market where Baccarelli Gas & Tecnologie operates.
