Secco Sistemi is an Italian trademark leader in the production of systems for doors, windows and facades in galvanized steel, stainless steel corten steel and brass. Every year, 2 million linear metres of profile bars are used to produce 200.000 doors and windows. Secco Sistemi boasts 60 years of experience and constant commitment dedicated to achieve high quality and innovation for their products.

shaping steel The use of metallic profiles to realise doors and windows starts in the mid-40s from bending technology, which only allowed the production of open sections. During the mid-50s Secco Industrie started manufacturing the first machines for continuous profiles production, equipped with a series of rollers that could generate tubular profiles thanks to a combined system of crimping and soldering. 60 years of constant and progressive technological development have made Secco Sistemi an established and consolidated company in the metal profiles sector for the building industry. They combine...

designing with steel Secco Sistemi supports the designer not only as a proponent of modern technologies for doors and windows, but also – and above all – as a competent interlocutor ready to suggest any tailored solutions that can enhance the spirit of each specific plan. This is a personal service, devised by the company and provided to the designer with the aim to understand the various design issues and at the same time setting out and providing all the possible alternatives in terms of materials and systems. The wide range of products, tested and certified by the best European labs, meets...

building with steel The final aim of Secco Sistemi is to provide the national and international market with high-level tailored solutions for the building industry. This is possible thanks to a consolidated network of more than 500 partners with great experience and proven professionalism. Specialised and qualified staff from the Secco Sistemi commercial and technical departments follow the training activity of their partners and work with them as a team in order to create, at the same time, a synergic flow of information and experiences aimed at the continuous improvement of the products. This...

steel nature For decades environmental issues and the protection of our planet have been the basis of companies’ philosophy. Secco Sistemi and their partners have developed eco-friendly products with high thermal insulation and performance efficiency, thus contributing to minimise energy consumption. Secco Sistemi carefully evaluates the environmental impact of their products, starting from the use of raw materials to the final disposal stage, through the optimisation of the technical-functional features and the use of their final products. This vision drives the company to design, produce and...

choosing steel The designer faces a great number of different aspects while choosing, time after time, the most appropriate material to use. One of these aspects is the achievement an extensive experience and a profound knowledge of the different steel qualities for a better offer of a synergy between the material used and the required stylistic and functional features of the building together with the choice of a material that can strongly and consistently define a project. Secco Sistemi primarily aims to provide the designer with all the necessary information that will allow him/her to choose...

galvanized steel The use of steel doors and windows has antique production origins, but it has significantly developed only in the second half of the 19th century thanks to the industrial revolution. The Bauhaus movement finally consecrated steel as an indispensable architectural component during the 20s and 30s, giving it authority and dignity. the strength of steel joined with an infinite range of different colours: a specific solution for every design need In the second half of the 50s, the development of cold profiling contributed to the evolution of the simple L, T and Z shaped profiles...

stainless steel The advent of stainless steel, an alloy made with iron, chrome, nickel and molybdenum that have the property of protecting the surfaces of material from corrosion, dates back to the beginning the inalterability of the surface through the years makes stainless steel the ideal solution in difficult environments of the 20th century. During the years, stainless steel has undergone continuous technical improvements, thus universally becoming famous for its inalterability and high durability. The different alloys produced during the last decades are now able to provide the designers...

corten steel Corten steel is a high-resistance self-passivating alloy containing copper, chrome and phosphorus, characterised by a high resistance to corrosion and to tensile yield; these alloys are self-protective through the formation of a superficial coating that prevents the progressive extending of the corrosion process. The natural oxidation process, when in contact with air, can be accelerated through appropriate oxidising baths. Thanks to this process, the resulting material will have a porous surface and unique colour features with warm shades of brown a material with high aesthetic...

brass This copper-zinc alloy – known since the 1st century – can be dated back, in its current version, to the 17th century. Its typical feature is to naturally oxidise when in contact with air, while keeping unchanged its physical features, to obtain that particular antique bronze finishing that makes it ideal for prestigious refurbishment of historical buildings and for new, high-level buildings with a look that joins elegance with tradition. For the production of their profiles, Secco Sistemi uses OT67 alloy the high resistance to corrosion, typical of OT67 alloy, meets with the high aesthetic...
