Walvoil Distributor Meeting 2026 – Technical Edition

A past to remember and a future to build together.

Parmafluid and Walvoil: over 50 years of collaboration, trust and shared values.

Recently, the Parmafluid and VHS team attended the Walvoil Distributor Meeting – Technical Edition, held in Reggio Emilia, Italy.

For Federico Ferrari, Andrea Guidorossi, Lorenzo Savi, Rob Turner and Stan Brindley, it was a valuable opportunity to exchange ideas and learn about the latest developments in Walvoil's product range, as well as to visit the Research & Development Department and the impressive Walvoil Innovation Center.

We would like to sincerely thank the entire Walvoil team for their warm welcome, excellent organization and, above all, for presenting our Group with the prestigious Partnership Award – “Continuity & Service” category.

This recognition makes us particularly proud, as it represents a history of collaboration that began over 50 years ago, even before Parmafluid was founded.

A story rooted in the dedication and vision of our unforgettable Franco Ferrari, who, even back then, travelled alongside the Walvoil team to visit numerous international distributors, many of whom would later become an integral part of today's global distribution network.

This journey continued and grew stronger throughout the 1980s and 1990s, with the establishment and development of Parmafluid alongside Giuseppe Lanfranchi, Giovanni Quattrini and Roberto Filippini, ultimately leading to the company's appointment as a Walvoil Master Distributor.

Since 2002, shared strategic projects, the involvement of VHS Hydraulic Components and collaborations in the field of test benches have further strengthened a relationship that, over the decades, has grown far beyond a simple business partnership.

Receiving this award today is a truly special moment for us.

An opportunity to look back with pride, admiration and deep gratitude towards all those who helped build this story, especially those who are sadly no longer with us.

But also an inspiration to look ahead with the same enthusiasm, the same passion and the determination to keep growing, improving and facing new challenges together.

Thank you, Walvoil, for these first 50 years of shared history. The best part is continuing to write it together!
