Silea

SILEA was founded in 1968 in the Bologna region, in Ozzano dell’Emilia, recognizing future developments in the oil industry, both in terms of distribution and product transfer. With more than 50 years of experience, the company specializes in the transportation of hydrocarbons, chemicals, foodstuffs, and bitumen, and remains a respected player, especially in the oil and gas sector, thanks to its high-quality products and strong brand.

SILEA’s product range covers a wide range of loading and unloading arms (top and bottom loading), floating suction pipes and descending stairs to loading docks. The company manufactures both standard products and customer-specific solutions that meet the strictest European safety and quality requirements (e.g. ATEX, PED, Machinery Directive).
