Redaelli RGB

Founded in 1819, Redaelli started up as a steel drawing mill in the area of Lecco, Italy. Around 1860, the original mill expanded into a larger factory and in 1870 it became a share capital company. By the 1980's, Redaelli had begun to diversify its activities by expanding its product range. In July 2008 the Company with the core ropes activities has become part of the Severstal-metiz group of companies.

Now, Redaelli Tecna S.p.A. ("Redaelli") is a leading international manufacturer in steel wire ropes used in a variety of applications, including suspension bridges, cable cars and cranes; service and distribution of lifting system; engineering of tensostructures. Redaelli is positioned to pursue attractive growth opportunities in each of its three business areas. As a matter of fact, the presence in so many different market sectors ensures ongoing growth of production volumes and profitability, whilst the expansion policy outside Europe - mainly in the Far East, USA, and Emerging Markets - is undergoing a consolidation process, which includes new clients and new fields of action. In this context of continuous development, in 2010 Redaelli breaks new record at international level: the Guinness World Record for the heaviest steel wire rope in the world.

The Company is based in Milan, Italy, all steel wire ropes are developed and produced in Italy, in its plants located in Gardone VT (Brescia) and Trieste and it has a network of service centres for distribution and service of ropes and hoisting accessories with branches in Italy, Turkey, Russia and China.

The Division Engineering of Redaelli offers complete technical solutions, design and production options on all tensional applications such as bridges and roofs for large halls, stadiums and exposition centres. Since the seventies, Redaelli Engineering Division has provided tensioned structural systems of every type and size all over the world becoming a global market leader.

The projects are developed on sophisticated software capable of defining the single rope as well as the entire tenso-structure. The Division also provides turnkey service thanks to its experienced team for installation.

In the recent past Redaelli Engineering Division was involved in the Storebælt (Denmark) suspension bridge project (the largest suspension bridge in Europe), in the Pisa (Italy) leaning tower consolidation works, in the cables system of the Giant London Eye observation wheel, in the Athens Olympic Stadium cable stayed roof, in the Zagreb Arena (Croatia), in the Khan Shatyr Entertainment Centre in Astana (Kazakhstan), the tallest tensile structure in the world, and in the cable stayed roofs of Warsaw Stadium (Poland), BC Place Vancouver Stadium (Canada) and New Juventus stadium in Turin (Italy).
