Founded in the late 1960s by Osvaldo Sartini, I.C.O.S. has established itself as a leader in the Italian metalworking sector. Originally a small artisan workshop specializing in perforating tubes, prickers, and punches for the footwear, leather goods, and paper-converting industries, the company has evolved into a versatile and dynamic organization. Today, it is a benchmark for precision mechanical processing. Led by the second generation of the Sartini family, I.C.O.S. combines tradition with innovation. With a skilled and motivated team and a flexible structure, the company is committed to sustainability and people-centered values while honoring its family legacy.
In the late 1990s, significant investments in new technology enabled I.C.O.S. to thrive in an increasingly competitive market. The new generation introduced diversification in both production processes and product offerings, which has enabled the company to excel in two key areas:
Through subcontracting services, I.C.O.S. is now a trusted partner in the mechanical supply chain, delivering precision components for a number of industries. Success lies in anticipating market demands, staying proactive and adaptable, and turning challenges into growth opportunities.
Thanks to its expertise in metalworking and continuous investment in advanced machinery and technology, I.C.O.S. has expanded its capabilities to serve a wide range of industries, by manufacturing precision mechanical parts. From packaging to automation, automotive to motorsport, medical to nautical, electronics to aerospace, our know-how allows I.C.O.S. to deliver tailored solutions for each sector’s unique needs.
This diversification has strengthened our position in manufacturing by providing high-quality, customized solutions that meet specific client requirements.
Experience and flexibility serving the metalworking and manufacturing industries.
Our state-of-the-art machinery allows us to handle a wide range of processes with precision and reliability. Thanks to our CNC lathes with sliding and fixed head with Y-axis equipped with loaders, we efficiently manage both large-scale production and small customized batches or prototypes.
Our 3- and 5-axis vertical machining centers enable us to perform complex operations such as milling, drilling, countersinking, and threading with meticulous attention to detail.
Wired electrical discharge machining (EDM) complements our range of services, adding extra value to the production process. We also carry out heat treatments on small metal parts made from special steels.
To refine surfaces and ensure a flawless finish, we use tumbling techniques as the final step in our production process.
I.C.O.S. stands out for its production flexibility, enabling rapid and precise responses to client needs, regardless of the size of the project or the complexity of the requirements.
I.C.O.S. is able to manufacture both small series and large-scale batches with the same care, attention and professionalism, without compromising the quality of the product or service.
We treat every client equally, from large corporations to small businesses. Each project is handled with dedication and professionalism because our clients’ success is our success.
Our adaptability allows us to provide personalized consulting and ongoing support tailored to specific requirements.
