Our history
The company Sautelma was created in 1964 in Aix-en-Provence, South of France. During the first twenty years, the company had only been manufacturing the feeding and weighing machines for bulk materials (cement industry, carrier, foundries, coke production, steel industry, mining, and phosphate & fertilisers. Most of its clients were in France.
In order to anticipate the progressive decline of those industries in France and safeguard its future, Sautelma has largely orientated towards Export and emerging countries. Today, Sautelma achieves 60% of its turnover abroad.
Furthermore, Sautelma has been diversifying and currently also works in food industry, plastics, petrochemical and mineral industry but also in the environment, water treatment and packaging.
The SAUTELMA buy-out by ROTOLOK Holdings Ltd in 1996 gave birth to SAUTELMA ROTOLOK. The cooperation between the different units of the group and Sautelma has provided the company with other activities such as pneumatic conveying systems and bulk handling.
Based on the market changes and on its client’s request, Sautelma Rotolok has been more and more acting as a designer & supplier of industrial systems (packages). Sautelma Rotolok provides not only engineering, design and manufacture of the equipment but also the assembly, commissioning and training.
