CIE turns 50
To our father.
This year our company reaches 50 years of activity in the industrial automation sector. We would like to remember the main stages of this growth path that has brought us to the level of experience and maturity that distinguishes us today.
1975
CIE was founded by Rodolfo Cesare with its headquarters in Monguzzo (CO). The first steps were taken in the installation of both civil and industrial electrical systems. The main sectors are the installations for surface and thermal treatments.

Besides electrical installations and PLC programming, an innovative system for supervision and remote control is developed: the IPS Cloud.

The geographical expansion brings the UL certification for exporting to the American market as well.
2022
Further growth during the latest years brought us to move again, relocating the company to a bigger building at Merone (CO).
Since it was born, CIE has never stopped growing, not only in size but, above all, regarding its competencies. The development of know-how has always been our priority, and we feed it with the objective of analysing and using new technologies. In this sector, keeping up with the times is essential and we put all our efforts to ensure that this remains true for the years to come.
