OUR HISTORY

 

 

The success obtained by Cavallo Comm. Giuseppe S.n.c., established by Comm.Giuseppe Cavallo on January 1950, thanks to the good combination between the valuable cooperation of experience acquired through the years and an updated highly qualified production of scientific instruments designed and made on request.

 

The story of the Company is a sort of biography of its establisher and his family: pioneer and lover of scientific research and prototypes (very interesting was his study of human flight). He had been working at scientific instruments as shop foreman and  test chief since 1929  and in 1947 he established his own company.

 

As a strong determined fighter, Comm. Giuseppe Cavallo was ahead of his time: in 1948 he designed and made a real achievement of science: the first Italian floating kidney (prof. Fieschi); and exercise capacity testing machines  to test athletes during 1960 Olympic Games such as:

 

CYCLE-ERGOMETER

BED-ERGOMETER

HAND-ERGOMETER

ROWING MACHINE

TAPIS ROULANT (prof. Margaria – prof. Sbertoli – prof. Vanzetti)

BASAL METABOLISM (prof. Canova – prof. Maccagno)

STUDY OF ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR

BIOREACTOR

INCUBATOR CRADDLE (prof. Nasso)

 

In 1965 his son Felice inherited the valuable knowledge of job, intuition, enterprise and experience. His complete dedication revealed his responsibility and thanks to his skill, he gave a brand new imprint to his father company. Always supported by his wife he kept on working and developing family business moving from the first artisan laboratory

to the new plant in Buccinasco.

 

 

 

In 1965 they made one Alpine Glasshouse and one Tropical Glasshouse for prof. Fausto Lona of Istitute for Botanical Garden in Parma: in 1967 the biggest Analysis Centrifuge (prof. Vanzetti) housing 960 vials; in 1976 they equipped  the first  Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory (Micropropagation) in Cesena thanks to the valuable cooperation of prof. Damiano and many others have been made using new technologies.

Nowadays it is a leader company in Italy and very much appreciated abroad too thanks to different jobs made for many international organizations such as F.A.O. Even if always keeping up with new ideas to make very special instruments on request, which nobody would even dare to deal with, Cavallo Comm. Giuseppe s.n.c. has set up a mass production section and a maintenance/servicing section dedicated to any instrument even if not of own production. They take aim at study, design and realisation, but take also good care in repair, to meet any possible need  of job-land.

 

In such a challenging program, Felice Cavallo is supported by valuable collaborators: a highly qualified team and, above all, the sons among whom Giuseppe, who will keep the company prestige introducing  the new image of Cavallo Comm. Giuseppe s.n.c.

in Italian economy.
