Description

Steelco is an Italian company producing medical washer, disinfectors, and sterilizers. It was acquired in 2017 by the German group Miele. In spring 2018, the company opened a new plant in Italy (Riese Pio X) to backs-shore production activities it had offshored in Austria and Germany in the last decades. The investment in the new plant will permit the company to hire around 60 new people.
