Our story
The company was founded in 1985 in Canaletti di Budrio, thanks to the commitment of the Bentivogli brothers: Piero, Paolo, Emilio, and Iside. From the very beginning, they combined their skills with the goal of establishing themselves in the rubber industry. The early days were challenging: they worked hard to consolidate the experience already gained in the sector, applying their prior knowledge of chemistry and rubber processing. But those were also exciting years, when everything was yet to be built.
In 1994, the untimely passing of Piero placed the company before a difficult choice: to stop or to continue. The decision was made to move forward, with the commitment to keep his values and ideas alive.
In 1999, the company certified its Quality Management System, a certification it still maintains to this day, in accordance with the ISO 9001:2015 standard.
In 2003, the company reached ten employees and moved to Bologna, to its current headquarters at Via Enrico Mattei 84/12A-84/15-84/15A. This step marked a turning point, opening up new opportunities and room for growth.
To affirm this growth, in 2005, the company received the “Best Performing Companies” award, confirming its constant commitment to providing customers with state-of-the-art products in the rubber industry.
In April 2019, with more than thirty employees, major clients in the automotive and motorcycle industries, and business relations in Europe, Asia, and America, the company completed the change of legal status from Bentivogli Snc to Bentivogli Srl.
In 2024, the company obtained certification for its Environmental Management System in accordance with the ISO 14001:2015 standard.
Forty years of history is a long time: too long for some, yet too short for others. We take pride in everything we have accomplished and are committed to continually improving. What will the next chapter of our story hold?
