To like your job is the best way to do it very well. Following this concept we have always designed our products focusing our attention to their application, so that “from the idea to its application” is not only a slogan but it has always been our method of job shared by management and collaborators. The red line which has always linked together all the efforts of the company, is to turn ideas into products concentrating on their applications. We have developed this concept in order to build a corporate assets made of good clients and our own “Know How”. We have later increased the number and the “quality” of our clients and we have developed our products starting from the design. This has been our mission. We don’t think to have achieved it yet, because we must not ever regard ourselves as arrived to the top and we can always improve ,but we can strongly affirm that our company offers a range of interesting products, so that we have been able to enter in the global international market.
Following our corporate policy we have created several products completely designed by us and realized under our direct control that starts from the components and arrives to the applications. Today we can say that Sel can cover every necessity of the secondary MV Distribution up to 40.5 kV with its products. Very soon will arrive other new products that will hopefully let us go on working and exporting our job Our mission is to take up the challenge of the global market using the high technological content of our job and products, in order to be global leading players. It is still possible to take up the challenge of the global market thanks to the pleasure that we find in doing our job and to the cleverness of the people who work in this company.
