ODE S.r.l. Officine di Esino Lario

ODE S.r.l. Officine di Esino Lario is an Italian industrial components manufacturer specialising in solenoid valves and pumps. Founded in 1960 and based in Esino Lario, in the province of Lecco, the company designs and produces complete lines of solenoid valves for the machine and plant construction market, offering customised solutions built around what it describes as its core principles of high quality, adaptability, product reliability and excellent after-sales service. Its product families are organised around the media they control — chemicals, steam, air, water and beverage applications — which indicates a broad industrial and process-automation customer base rather than a single end market. The company markets itself under the short brand "ODE" and presents itself as a gateway to excellence in solenoid valves and pumps. Its website is published in Italian, English and German, reflecting a European export orientation, and the firm exhibits at major trade fairs such as Hannover Messe. ODE has also been recognised in Italian business media: it received the "Premio Industria Felix" (Industria Felix Award) and appeared in Industria Felix Magazine as one of the best-performing companies with legal headquarters in Italy for management performance and financial reliability. Ownership changed in 2021 when CEME SpA completed the acquisition of 100% of the ODE Group, making ODE part of the CEME Group. Under CEME, ODE has continued to invest in sustainability and market presence, announcing in 2024 that it had reached 100% renewable energy use and returning to Hannover Messe. The company remains an active, privately held subsidiary focused on fluid-control components for original equipment manufacturers and industrial end users.

ODE S.r.l. (Officine di Esino Lario) was founded in 1960 and has since designed and produced complete lines of solenoid valves for the machine and plant construction market. The company states that it has built its reputation over more than 50 years of activity on high quality, adaptability, product reliability and an excellent after-sales service, and that this experience has driven it to develop new products and reach new goals. Its product offering is organised around the media handled — chemicals, steam, air, water and beverage — which positions it in a range of industrial and process applications. For much of its history ODE operated as an independent Italian manufacturer based in Esino Lario, in the province of Lecco. In the late 2010s and early 2020s it gained visibility in Italian business media for its financial and management performance. It was recognised with the "Premio Industria Felix" in 2019 and again in 2020, when it received the Alta Onorificenza di Bilancio for the second consecutive year, and in January 2021 it was featured in Industria Felix Magazine among the best companies with legal headquarters in Italy for management performance and financial reliability. In January 2021 the company also began a cycle of webinars to present its solutions for different applications, beginning with sterilisers. A major ownership change occurred in 2021: CEME SpA completed the acquisition of 100% of the ODE Group, and ODE Group became part of the CEME Group. The transaction was announced on the ODE website on 1 March 2021. Under CEME ownership, ODE has continued to promote its brand and products internationally. In February 2024 it announced its return to Hannover Messe 2024, where it exhibited in Hall 13, Stand B72, from 22 to 26 April 2024. In June 2024 ODE announced, together with CEME Group, that it had reached 100% renewable energy use, reflecting a sustainability commitment within the group. Today ODE remains an active Italian manufacturer of solenoid valves and pumps, serving machine and plant builders with customised fluid-control solutions.
