What Rivisa Icm S.a. does

Rivisa Industrial de Cerramientos Metálicos S.A. (Rivisa ICM S.A.) is a Spanish manufacturer and installer of perimeter protection systems. The company traces its origins to 1854 as a family business and has operated under its current corporate form as a Sociedad Anónima since 1987, with the distinction of being the first Spanish manufacturer of perimeter protection systems. It is headquartered in Lliçà de Vall, Barcelona, with primary production concentrated in a 130,000 m² facility in Santa Margarida de Montbui.

The product portfolio spans residential and rural fencing (Lux line), residential and industrial fence families (Brico, Fax, Ritmo, Classic, Calitax, Nove, Ultra, Pantah, Decor, Nature, Onix, Elegance), security-grade systems (Defence Plus, EST), sliding and swing gates, ACCES automation systems and barriers, mobile/temporary fencing, sport systems, railings, meshes, and wires. Underlying technology centers on a proprietary anti-corrosion coating branded Protecline, supported by automated painting lines and robotized welding. The company holds ISO 9001 certification.

Rivisa generates revenue through four channels: direct sales via eight commercial delegations across Spain, an international distributor network exporting to more than 40 countries, an e-commerce channel enabled by an online configurator application, and installation services. It serves four customer segments — individual homeowners, distributors, installers and specifiers, and contractor/institutional buyers — and has maintained a distribution partnership with Leroy Merlin since 2021.
