Authentic artisanal tradition

we introduce ourselves

We turn stainless steel into quality products

We work on two fronts: the production of manwaydoors and manhole covers and pattern carpentry.

Our factory is located in the province of Brescia, in the Western zone of lake Garda.

Our products are the result of experience gained in 50 years of activity and are designed and manufactured in Italy. We provide our expertise and professionalism to develop products to customer specifications. Indeed, our strength lies in our great capacity for adaptation and personalization.

A technical office with experience, the continuous professional training of our welders, the certification of welding processes and a controlled polishing and satin-finishing process: everything to guarantee constant, high-level quality standards.

All design and production phases are state-of-the-art to ensure high performance during the execution of orders.

years of experience

OUR HISTORY

The brothers Alessandro and Enrico Mora realize the first cast-iron manways and manholes for concrete tanks, in their own foundry in Gavardo (BS). The product is successfull and becomes the highlight of the foundry.

1950

POST-WAR PERIOD

Thanks to the economic growth of the post-war period, the demand for manways and manholes increases in the wine industry and together with it also the availability of new materials and production techniques. Mora brothers begin to mold stainless steel covers.

Mora brothers establish ARTEN, located in Prevalle, a new factory specialized in the production of manways and manholes.

1974

1982

They abandon cast-iron on behalf of stainless steel. All the manways and manholes begin to be entirely made of stainless steel.

With the building of the new production site the company's expansion begins.

2000

TODAY

At the helm of our business there is Mora family’s new generation of entrepreneurs, who continues Arten’s path of growth in Italy and foreign markets.
