main stages of our history

1986 - 1987

Birth

Parmafluid srl is founded.

The four owners launch the venture of the company in the hydraulic sector, based in Parma, Manara Road.

1988 -1998

Consolidation and first partners

Staff grew in support of the four owners together with increasing turnover. In the early years of production, the company made known its brand by focusing on the strengths that characterize it: quality, convenience and expertise.

This strategy allowed Parmafluid to become an authorized distributor of the major groups of the hydraulic sector, such as Rexroth, Casappa, Emmegi, Oleostar Hydr -app and Walvoil.

1998 - 1999

Growth: new head-quarter, new productions

Parmafluid srl moved to new premises in Azzoni 9 / A, Parma.

The company continued to grow by developing new branches and departments. It optimally separated the distribution from the production department of cylinders, hydraulic systems and test benches.

2002

First Sister Company

Our response to market globalization was the Joint Venture created in 2002 in Great Britain with VHS Hydraulic Components Ltd., a Sister Company recognized for the same human and technical values.

2008

Automation: warehouse 4.0

Two vertical Auto-Stores were installed for optimal management of the components, to which two more will be added in the following years.

About 80% of the codes of the components managed by the company are currently stored in the automatic warehouses, for a total of over 10 000 items, allowing Parmafluid to reduce management costs, reduce storage, search and picking times, increase the warehouse capacity.

2016 - 2019

Internationalization, re-branding, CE Rexroth

The new renewed Brand Identity is launched and for the first time Parmafluid participates in important international trade fairs: EIMA in Bologna, MDA in Hannover, BAUMA in Munich, Offshore Energy in Amsterdam. The presence on the British market is strengthened: VHS Hydraulics acquires Neilson Hydraulics & Engineering Ltd which then becomes part of the group.

We are officially CERTIFIED EXCELLENCE SOLUTION Partner of Bosch Rexroth for the industrial, mobile and compact hydraulics sectors.
