From the late 70's Tecnimont has been following a policy of marked internationalisation of its own activity, backed by its having access to technologies of the Group's or of Third Parties', by its huge experience, and by the highly competitive quality of its services.
Tecnimont is today one of the best known and acknowledged "General Contractors" on the international market. Its main field of activity is in the process industry, in particular in the following sectors:
where it applies primary technologies of Third Parties' or of the Group's.
Thanks to the experience acquired in the implementation of over
1000 plants in four continents, Tecnimont is a global operator capable
of handling integrated projects in any sector. The latest contracts cover
process plants located in the following countries:
Tecnimont offers a full range of services, from market research and
feasibility studies to project financing, from process design to basic
and detailed engineering, from safety audits to environmental impact assessment,
from equipment procurement to construction and turnkey plant supply, from
technical assistance to plant operation and maintenance as well as product
marketing.
Tecnimont is in a position to meet today's most sophisticated
demand through innovative technical, economic, and financial instruments
as well as by assisting clients throughout the investment.
Tecnimont's tradition and consolidated success as General Contractor
for process plants have favoured a diversification of the company which,
thanks to its establishing an "Agro-industrial and Pharmaceutical" Division
and an "Environment and Infrastructure" Division some years ago, has broadened
its activity.
As far as agro-industry is concerned, Tecnimont has access to
the entire know-how of Eridania Bˇghin-Say (Montedison Group), a multi-national
leader in particular in the sectors of sugar, starch and its derivatives,
soybean proteins and lecithins, animal feed, products for industrial processing.
Tecnimont designs and implements integrated development programmes
aimed at a rational agricultural exploitation.
With regard to environmental protection, the company designs and
builds waste pre-treatment units at the battery limits of process plants
as well as centralised multi-purpose treatment units. Tecnimont is engaged
in methodological and applicative studies for the assessment of the impact
on the environment, studies for commercial plant location and relocation,
watershed projects, emergency plans for the management of technological
and natural risks, data banks and territorial information systems.
Furthermore, Tecnimont is active in the field of construction
of civil and industrial buildings and in large infrastructure projects.
Tecnimont is staffed with over 800 people, out of which 76% hold
university or secondary school diplomas.
In 1993 the company's backlog reached Italian Lire 1576 billion,
with a turnover of Italian Lire 863 billion.
Tecnimont, based in Milan, Italy, has several representative and
branch offices abroad, such as in Beijing (China), Moscow (Russia), Kiev
(Ukraine), Ufa (Bashkortostan), Tripoli (Libya), Tehran (Iran), and Singapore.
Moreover, it has established a number of foreign companies, for example
