SOL.IM.I. srl

What SOL.IM.I. srl does

SOL.IM.I. srl is a privately held Italian limited liability company (Società a responsabilità limitata) founded in 2013 and headquartered in Rome at Via Cloanto 12, 00155. The firm employs approximately 9 people and operates as a specialized value-added reseller and systems integrator of industrial equipment, focusing on compressed air systems, air treatment, nitrogen generation, vacuum/blow systems, industrial aspiration and purification, chillers, evaporative cooling and heating, and sandblasting/painting cabins. Its commercial offer spans the full lifecycle: on-site analysis and simulation (including non-disruptive compressed air audits), custom 2D/3D CAD design, equipment sales and rental, professional installation, and scheduled or occasional maintenance tracked through an internal digital plant registry that captures purchase dates, serial numbers, certificates, manuals, and intervention history for every installation. Product range spans from 1.5 kW compressors up to 1,200 kW chillers, with PSA nitrogen generators supplied through a partnership with Slovenia-based Omega Air covering flow rates of 0.83-766.8 Nm3/h at purities up to 99.999%.

The company's go-to-market is a sales-led B2B model targeting industrial customers across more than ten vertical sectors including food and beverage, pharmaceutical and healthcare, graphic arts and packaging, mechanical and automotive, ceramic and glass, electronics, industrial laundries, furniture, and workshops. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific, with revenue derived from five streams: equipment sales, rental and leasing, installation services, maintenance and support (multi-year contracts), and custom plant design and construction. Marketing is conservative and locally focused: the company website (solimi.net), downloadable general catalog, telephone, and email are the primary channels, supplemented by presence in Italian business directories (Pagine Gialle, Pagine Bianche). There are no disclosed funding rounds, parent companies, subsidiaries, or external investors; the firm appears to be founder/owner-operated, and it has aligned portions of its aspiration and air-purification portfolio with the INAIL Bando ISI 2026 grant program (offering Italian clients up to 65% non-repayable contributions up to EUR 130,000 for eligible safety investments).

Geographic scope is concentrated in Lazio and central Italy, with no disclosed international expansion. Competitive positioning is built primarily on the founders' 30+ years of accumulated domain experience in compressed air and air treatment rather than on patented technology, software platforms, or AI-driven differentiation. The firm operates as a regional specialist with a broad horizontal product portfolio within industrial plant engineering, leveraging partnerships (notably Omega Air) to access capabilities it does not develop in-house.

Core offering

SOL.IM.I. srl designs, sells, installs, and maintains industrial compressed air systems, nitrogen generators, vacuum and blow systems, air aspiration/purification systems, trim aspiration systems, chillers, and evaporative cooling/heating equipment. The company provides end-to-end solutions for industrial plants including on-site analysis, custom 2D/3D CAD design, professional installation, and ongoing maintenance services.

Product overview

SOL.IM.I. srl is an industrial equipment company founded in 2013, offering a portfolio of physical products and services for industrial plants. The core product portfolio includes: compressed air systems and distribution networks (Aria compressa e rete distribuzione), nitrogen generators (Generatori di azoto) via PSA technology in partnership with Omega Air, vacuum and blow systems (Vuoto e soffio), air aspiration and purification systems (Aspirazione e depurazione aria), trim/waste aspiration systems (Aspirazione rifili) for paper/plastic/metal, sandblasting and painting cabins (Sabbiatura e verniciatura), chillers and refrigeration units (Chiller e gruppi frigoriferi), and evaporative cooling/heating systems (Raffrescamento e riscaldamento industriale). These products are complemented by four service offerings: analysis and simulation (energy audits, consumption monitoring), design and implementation (CAD 2D/3D, custom installation), sales and rental, and after-sales support including digital plant registry and maintenance contracts. The products function as standalone industrial systems rather than a unified software platform.
