McV Millennium Valves Italy Srl

General information

It is 1950 and Riv, at the time called “Artemio Rubinetteria”, opens in a small workshop in the village of Valduggia, in the province of Vercelli.
Its founder, Cav. Artemio Velatta, works with skill
and tenaciousness, in those years the working
hours are impossible: from 5 am to 10 pm, you
go to work on a bicycle in any condition, even in
one meter of snow.
Slowly, the small company grows and Artemio has to ask his father
Lorenzo and his brother Renato for help, so he changes the name of the company to “Rubinetteria Lorenzo Velatta & Figli” in honour of his father.
The years pass and the number of customers continues to grow: Artemio is right, producing high quality taps and valves has been a smart choice.
The company, now grown, is moved to Borgosesia, always in Vercelli province, and takes the name of “Rubinetterie Industriali Valsesiane”.
In 1965 the death of his brother Renato leaves Artemio devastated: he has lost his brother, but also a valid collaborator and his father is getting old.
Artemio does not lose heart and with his staff he acquires an increasing number of markets throughout the world.
Increasingly advanced processing and assembly machines make it possible to produce high quality products in larger quantities.
Artemio has made it, his dream has come true, he has created a trustworthy brand throughout the world.
Today the “RV Rubinetterie Italiane Velatta” has its
head offi ce in Grignasco (N0), two factories in Borgosesia (VC) and one in Brazil in Joinville; prestigious recognitions and international homologations have contributed to expand the diffusion of its products in 70 countries around the world.
Today, our father, Artemio, can look at his company with great pride. This year it celebrates its fi rst 60 years, standing tall in diffi cult moments and continuing to grow and
expand.
