Following the acquisition of the Veneto-based company, a leader in the design and manufacture of engineering solutions for the inspection and safety of plants and infrastructure, the Fassi Group is launching a new business segment and expanding its portfolio of products and solutions.

Founded in 1963 in Cittadella (PD), Barin has established itself over the years for its ability to provide bespoke, high-tech solutions focused on the design and manufacture of inspection and maintenance platforms. Barin now operates in Europe, the Americas and Asia, complementing its portfolio of traditional products with a range of technologies for the maintenance of large structures through the use of articulated telescopic booms for precision access.

The acquisition of Barin follows shortly after the integration of Fascan International and the acquisition of Tecnove, demonstrating the Fassi Group’s growth strategy, guided by clear strategic priorities, including the acquisition of cutting-edge production technologies, integration into international distribution, and the expansion of the product portfolio in targeted high-value-added segments.

With this acquisition, Fassi – an indirect subsidiary of the Investindustrial Fund, with a turnover exceeding €500 million in 2025 and a workforce of over 1,800 – aims to strengthen its position in the sector by continuing to invest in Italy’s real and industrial economy and to expand the scope of application of its technologies globally.

“The acquisition of Barin enables us to enter a new business segment and add vital expertise to our range of products and solutions for the infrastructure safety and maintenance market,” emphasises Victor Gottardi, CEO of Fassi: “The Fassi Group focuses on the quality of its workmanship and technological leadership, guaranteed by vertical integration of production, as well as a supply chain of excellence, built up over more than 60 years of history.”

Pierpaolo Barin, CEO of Barin, added: “This is a crucial step in Barin’s growth trajectory; by joining a company of excellence such as the Fassi Group, we aim to further expand our portfolio of solutions and technologies to serve our customers internationally.”
