There is a subtle thread that links the history of a company to that of its founder, and in the case of Vuototecnica, this thread is intertwined with a lifetime of passion, courage, and practicality.
This story is told in the book Echi e ricordi di un cuore che non ha mai battuto a vuoto (Echoes and memories of a heart that never beat in vain), the autobiographical account of Giuliano Bosi, presented on the occasion of the company’s 50th anniversary. But it is also something more: an ideal witness passed from hand to hand, from those who built with their own ideas and their own hands to those who will carry on that human and technical heritage into the future.
In the pages of this volume, collected and translated into writing by Marco Sorelli, childhood in the Emilian countryside is closely linked to the birth of an entrepreneurial talent capable of transforming the curiosity of a child who built his own toys into an adult desire to give shape to ideas.
From the farmhouse “La Veronesa,” without electricity or running water, to the founding of Vuototecnica and the creation of a catalog of over a thousand pages and three thousand products, Giuliano Bosi’s journey spans half a century of Italian history, from rural Italy to the industrial boom.
In July 1975, together with his wife Nadia, he founded the company Vuototecnica, an artisan firm that would usher in a new era for vacuum technology. He had just invented a new type of vacuum solenoid valve, which was highly efficient and innovative, and had obtained a patent for it. He named it DDN 25, after the initials of his children and wife, Daniela, Davide, and Nadia.
“It was our intention,” he recalls in the book, “to exploit this invention together with other vacuum components in a market that was still in its early stages.” He was thirty-one years old.
From that combination of genius, trust, and vision, a company was born that was destined to become an international benchmark.
“I wrote these pages with the awareness that every step I took left a footprint, but also a seed,” writes Bosi. “Nothing is ever truly ‘vacuum’ when every choice, every silence, every wait finds its echo in time, in loved ones, in fruits left behind.”
Seeds that continue to sprout in the people who contribute every day to the growth of Vuototecnica and those who rely on its experience.
