Founded in 1982 by Luigi Bisogni

F & B was founded in 1982 on the initiative of its founding partner, Luigi Bisogni, to meet the growing demand for quality and reliability in the mechanical engineering sector.

The need expressed by many companies, which later became our customers, was to be able to count on a highly qualified, punctual, attentive and technologically advanced professional service, able to follow the evolution of the market and of the companies themselves, while providing a very high quality standard of products and services.

F & B was therefore created to provide the technical solution to the problems of manufacturers and users of industrial machinery, equipment and plants of all kinds, through the supply of spare parts, maintenance services, improvement of machine performance and reliability, specific design studies and applied engineering.

Our core business

High-precision mechanical engineering with the supply of spare parts made through special processes, and mechanical maintenance on equipment and plants in the chemical, petrochemical, oil, energy, pharmaceutical, food, mineral water, steel, marine, cement, mining, paper and moulding sectors.

Our people

F & B’s work has always been carried out by people who live their job with passion and professionalism, putting their know-how at the customer’s disposal. Experience, quality of materials, modern equipment, special processes and highly qualified staff allow us to meet the most varied demands of the market.

Today

Many years of activity, continuous monitoring of the market and a constant pursuit of improvement make F & B one of the leading, albeit small, Italian companies in the industrial manufacturing and maintenance sector, present through its customers in the most demanding branches of mechanical engineering. We continue our evolution to provide the highest added value in expertise and technical reliability.
