What Sanremo Coffee Machines does

Sanremo Coffee Machines S.r.l. is an Italian, family-owned designer and manufacturer of professional espresso machines and coffee grinders, headquartered in Vascon di Carbonera (Treviso), Italy, with approximately 93 employees. Its portfolio spans multi-group professional platforms (Café Racer, F18, Opera, D8, YOU), single-group and compact models (D8 One, ZOE 2026, F18SB, Cube), and a complementary grinder line anchored by the X-ONE high-precision grinder with integrated bean weighing and 98mm vertical flat burrs, alongside the SR 64/SR 83 OD grinder family. The technical platform is built around proprietary precision systems including multiboiler real-time temperature stability (±0.2°C), the CDS (Coffee Extraction Dynamics System) for three-phase extraction control, the Flowactive pre-infusion system, dry-steam milk texturing (less than 8% humidity), an Energy Saving System (up to 40% energy reduction), and IoT/mobile-app connectivity (My Sanremo) for remote monitoring and programming.

The company operates a worldwide direct sales network with branch offices and a dedicated US-market entity (sanremous.com), supported by a direct e-commerce spare-parts portal and after-sales service. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of machines and grinders, supplemented by spare parts and after-sales services; pricing is quote-based with no public list. End customers include specialty coffee shops, coffee roasters, restaurants and hospitality venues, and (more recently) premium domestic and enthusiast users. Quality management is certified to ISO 9001:2015 through 2027.

Sanremo's brand has been validated by selection as the official machine for World Coffee Events competition finals (WLAC and WCIGS) from 2018 to 2020, and the #wearesanremo community initiative is positioned as a core element of the company's identity. Recent strategic activity includes the 2022 launch of the X-ONE grinder, the 2024 launch of the D8 modular platform, and the 2026 launches of ZOE 2026 and D8 One, alongside the maintained US-market presence and aftermarket e-commerce operations.
