Company history and our values

Sicor is the leading company in the domestic market and one of the leading and most internationally known companies in the design, manufacture and marketing of head protection devices, related safety accessories and analysis instrumentation

About us

Sicor S.p.A.- Sicurezza Compagnie Riunite - was established in the 1980s through the merger of two companies La Lombarda Antinfortunistica S.p.A. and Sureco S.p.A.

The first, founded in the 1960s, was one of the largest manufacturers of Personal Protective Equipment in Italy. The main product lines included flame-resistant clothing, safety footwear, cut-resistant and heat-resistant gloves, visors, and helmets for industry and fire protection. The second, part of the Fiat Group, acquired in the 1980s, operated in the market for dielectric protection and fixed instrumentation analysis of toxic, explosive and asphyxiant gasses.

With the evolution of an increasingly specific and complex regulatory landscape, we have specialized in designing, manufacturing and marketing head protection devices, along with related safety accessories and analytical instrumentation. This specialization has propelled us to become the leading company in the domestic
market and one of the most renowned internationally.
