ENTERPRISE

FRAUTSCHI S.A.C.I.F.I.A. is a company dedicated to the manufacture and marketing of stainless steel valves and fittings for the food, beverage, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

It also prepares and executes customized projects, from valve distributors to CIP centrals; pre-assemblies, installations and automations.

In 1960, Juan Carlos and Oscar Frautschi started producing nickel plated bronze accessories for the dairy industry in the old premises located in the downtown area of Rafaela.

Thirteen years later, they began developing the same product line but using stainless steel, which widen their market to the food, beverage, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

In the late 70s, the Frautschi brothers started to manufacture butterfly, retaining and piston valves; and also to execute customized projects following the specifications provided by their clients.

In 1992, FRAUTSCHI carried out collaborative actions with a German company that transfers its technology to manufacture valves, accessories and its engineering applied to manual, semi-automatic and automatic processes, including CIP plants.

Within the first months of 1996, FRAUTSCHI S.A.C.I.F.I.A. inaugurated its new manufacturing plant in the Industrial Area of Rafaela, where all activities related to Marketing, Logistics, Supplies, Engineering and Administration are concentrated.

In November 2006, the company achieved the ISO9001:2000 quality certification standard for the design, manufacture and marketing of its valves and fittings, which was awarded by Det Norske Veritas. This ensures the quality of our processes so that our customers are satisfied as to their requirements.

In late 2012, we renew this commitment by which we re-certification under the new version, the ISO9001: 2008, demonstrating once again our implementation of continuous improvement and pursuit of excellence.

Today, we are extremely honored and proud to be recognized as leading providers of small, medium and large companies in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile and Mexico and throughout the world through engineering firms and manufacturers equipment they use and recommend our products.
