SOCAGE HISTORY
Past
SO.CA.GE “Società di Carpenteria Generale” was established in 1974 as a specialized company in the production and realizing of
metallic components.
In 1981 the company specialized in the manufacturing of working access platforms and thanks to its innovative articulated boom products
affirmed itself as the Italian market leader.
It has taken just few years for SO.CA.GE products to have been known internationally for their quality and innovation, so, in the
latest ’80 they have been exported to France and to the Northern African countries.
In 1991 the SO.CA.GE-FASSI group took life ( the third World manufacturer of truck mounted cranes ) with the ambitious project to form
the first Italian group specialized in equipment for working at height.
Thanks to the FASSI’s technical and industrial know-how, SO.CA.GE has been growing year by year.
Present
August 2009, the turning time. SOCAGE S.r.l. was bought by a group of entrepreneurs with a pluriannual practice in the access platform
sector: Fiorenzo Flisi, Paolo Troni and Maurizio Piantoni with the scope to speed up the company development through huge investments in R&D
finalized to offer to the market products with performances uppermost what offered by competitor until now.
Following this vision, the new 3 series was created, models technically at the top of the market; the brand new DA324 is the
clearest proof of this fact, because it’s the highest double pantograph truck mounted access platform mounted on 3.5 ton truck in the World,
able of a maximum working height of 24 m and of an outreach of 11 m loading 225 kg!
Future
28,6 million Euro in 2010, an excellent goal for Socage that has seen its annual turnover to increase by 55% more.
In 2011 Socage celebrates its first 30 years since it has started to manufacture truck mounted access platforms.
