What ECISA - Equipos y Controles Industriales S.A. does

ECISA - Equipos y Controles Industriales S.A. is a privately held Guatemalan corporation operating for 15 years in the local and regional market from its headquarters in the Mariscal district of Guatemala City. The company operates three distinct business verticals under one corporate entity. The first vertical is distribution and resale of Tesa brand adhesive tape products, including BOPP packaging tapes, double-sided tapes, TESAFIX mounting tapes, Tesaprint printing tapes, ACX series, masking tapes, duct tape, and specialty safety tapes (reflective and non-slip). The second vertical is industrial safety product distribution, including flexible bollards, metal and polyethylene buoys, traffic cones, road delineators, column protectors, speed bumps, parking stops, containment barriers, road markers, caution tape, and stretch film.

The third vertical is gas station services, spanning turnkey construction from bare land through planning, legal management, civil works, tank fabrication (up to 10,000 gallons), piping systems, dispenser installation, canopy construction, and electrical systems. This vertical also includes ongoing repair, modernization, and maintenance of gas stations, including submersible pumps, dispensers, and electrical systems, plus spare parts supply for Gilbarco and Wayne brand dispensers. A distinguishing feature is that calibration and maintenance services are mandatory under Guatemala's Ministry of Energy and Mines and Hydrocarbons (MEM) regulations, creating recurring compliance-driven demand.

The business model is sales-led direct distribution with quote-based pricing across all three verticals. Revenue streams are transactional product sales for adhesives and safety products, plus project-based professional services for gas station construction and maintenance. The company uses a website with separate pages per vertical, plus Facebook and LinkedIn presence, and direct contact forms (including a specialized gas station inquiry form) as its primary lead generation mechanism. The company does not operate any software platform, mobile application, or API, and has no disclosed AI capabilities.

• Intertape Polymer Group: Manufacturer of packaging tapes and industrial adhesive products serving similar industrial and packaging end-markets as ECISA's adhesive distribution business.
