In mid-July, the Hromatka Group expanded its Europe-wide network of local sales companies in the plastics industry to central and southern Italy. With the acquisition of the southern Italian family-owned company Sotac Tecnopolimeri, the Italian market will benefit from the expanded product portfolio of the European group based in Austria and Switzerland.
As southern Italy has played a rather minor role in the portfolio of the Europe-wide Hromatka Group to date, this will change with the acquisition of Sotac Tecnopolimeri. In addition to Guzman Polymers, a company belonging to the group and based in northern Italy, the catchment area of the new "family member" extends from the province of Marche to the south, thus perfectly complementing the group's field of activity.
Sotac Tecnopolimeri specializes in engineering plastics such as PA, POM, ABS, PBT, PC, PC-ABS, and PP compounds. With renowned manufacturers such as Radici, Vamptech, Cossa Polimeri, and Kolon, the Italian plastics expert is not only adding new suppliers to the Hromatka Group's supply portfolio, but also benefiting itself from an expansion of its product range, including products from the group's own compounder SAX Polymers.
The goal of the Pigini family, who have been running Sotac Tecnopolimeri for over 50 years, has always been to be number one in meeting the various needs of their customers through reliability, material quality, delivery reliability, a broad product portfolio, and technical advice. As of July 11, 2023, the company will have a new owner, but neither the goal nor the management will change: The Hromatka Group—also a family-owned company—has always valued regionality. That is why Sotac will remain an independent Italian company in the future. The employees, who are part of the family here and there, will continue to be able to live out their passion for plastics.
