In 1998 ELCO presented its first electronic commuted motor or ECM, a high efficiency energy saving motor designed for the commercial refrigeration world. If compared to the traditional shaded pole motors or PSC, the efficiency of the ECM motor is definitely higher and can reduce the consumptions up to one-third. This range of motor promptly received the approval of a significant number of food retailers and OEMs, this thanks to the concrete possibility to reduce the energy costs and especially to the several economic benefits that can be generated in the long term. With over 4 million units sold worldwide, the market of these motors is expected to grow, expanding its use to the HVAC market sector.



History

History

The Group’s origins date back to 1954, when the Colombo family founded Elettromeccanica F.lli Colombo di Vittorio, initially manufacturing electric motors for small electrical appliances in Italy.

Through the years the Group made a name for itself as a leading manufacturer of electric motors for the commercial refrigeration. Now the group has emerged also in the sector of the HVAC-R products.

In 1982 the first assembling plant was established abroad, in Spain. Subsequently a manufacturing plant was set up in Brazil in 1998 and in China in 2002.

Presently, the Group employs approximately 800 people of which about 160 employed at the plant of Inzago, located between Bergamo and Milan, whose area is of about 40.000 m² and holds the manufacturing plant, as well as the top management, the sales, the administration and R&D departments.
