We would like to officially welcome Federica, who has started to work in GemmeCotti in the last weeks.
Graduated in accountancy with a specialization in languages, Federica worked for years performing back-office activities, firstly for an insurance agency and then for a metalworking company. Here at GemmeCotti she will assist the Accounting Department, and she will take care of accounts and company documentation management.
She is Ludovica’s mom, and she loves to spend her free time with her daughter, or listening to music or… kickboxing!
We have a new fighter onboard: welcome to GemmeCotti, Federica!
Our production can now boast a new pump that widen the choice of our magnetic drive centrifugal pumps: HTM 80 PP/PVDF. This pump is the newborn in GemmeCotti and we are certainly proud to introduce a product whose size makes it unique on the market of pumps with injection moulded parts. As a matter of fact, HTM 80 is not machined from a block and it can reach a capacity of 90 m3/h and a head of 38 mlc.
HTM 80 is the biggest size of HTM pumps series (magnetic drive centrifugal pumps) that consequently now cover a range of flow from 0,5m3/h to 90m3/h and a range of head from 0,5mlc to 38mlc.
HTM 80 is available in thermoplastic materials (PP or PVDF) which assures high chemical resistance to most existing chemicals. All the internal plastic parts are made through injection moulding process.
Compared to pumps machined from a solid block, injection moulded pumps guarantee repeatability, absence of leakage, better efficiency and, above all, higher quality. Moreover, it assures a faster delivery.
The sealless magnetic drive design, without any mechanical seal, is the most suitable solution for pumping acids and corrosive and dangerous liquids because it is leak-proof and emission-proof.
HTM 80 design is really simple. The external magnet on the drive shaft transmits the motion to the internal magnet connected to the impeller, which rotates and moves the fluid through the pump. This motion transmission through magnetic joints guarantees maximum safety and efficiency.
Furthermore, it’s really easy to assemble and disassemble this type of pump and the maintenance is very reduced. As a result, there’s a remarkable saving in terms of repairing and spare parts costs during pump life.
Materials: PP; PVDF
Max flow: 90m3/h

The GemmeCotti team continues to grow! We would like to welcome Marco, who will follow the Italian market.
He received his diploma in Industrial Chemistry in Milan in 1982. His first work experience was as a technician in a chemical research laboratory. Then in 1990, he began to work in the commercial sector of field instruments (pressure switches and temperature switches, flow meters).
In 2001 he began to work with an Italian producer of screw pumps, where he gained invaluable experience in the management and development of sales networks while following the key accounts of the industrial sector (machine tools, wind-power sector, steel industry, and hydraulics).
After a brief period working with filtration plants, he arrived at GemmeCotti.
Marco is a passionate photographer and we are sure all his projects will develop perfectly.

Thanks to the recent school reform, students attending high school can benefit from the initiative called “Work-Study Program”. This is a great opportunity offered to teenagers to spend some weeks working in various companies and learning about the working life. GemmeCotti believes that this project could really give big benefits to the young people for their future. That’s why for more than 10 years we have been in contact with local high schools and we have been hosting many students in our offices for short internships. Now, thanks to the “Work-Study Program”, GemmeCotti could made itself regularly available for welcoming these young people.
Cristina – Marketing Manager in GemmeCotti: “This kind of activity allows young people both to understand the working life in a company and to experience a different world made of responsibilities and activities they are not accustomed to. GemmeCotti team shows to these students the various aspects of the company and guides them to do easy activities by themselves.”
We interviewed two of our most recent students, Giorgia and Nicola. They’re both attending the last year but in two different kinds of school. Giorgia was interested in the account and marketing office, while Nicola in the technical office.
Cristina: “What did you do during the weeks spent in GemmeCotti?”
Giorgia: “I could join the colleagues of the sales office and closely observe how they prepared invoices, quotations, shipping documents and all kind of documentation necessary to sell the products. Concerning marketing I actively performed some tasks as for example searching for new prospects and update the data base regarding active customers.”
Nicola: “In the technical office I had the chance to see how the technicians designed new pumps and all their parts with 3D design software. Moreover, I assisted to a lot of pump tests, that are necessary to check the correct functioning of the pumps and their performances.” 
Cristina: “Did you felt at ease here in our company?”
Nicola: “Yes! Despite being busy with their everyday work, the team has always found enough time to guide me through different tasks. It has been a very satisfying experience.”
Giorgia: “Yes, the relationships with the colleagues were very good in my opinion. I felt comfortable with all my colleagues, who were very kind and helpful.”
Cristina: “What do you think about this experience in general?”
Giorgia: “I think I’ve learned a lot of things and not only concerning professional issues: for example, I’ve understood that personal commitment is always necessary in order to obtain good results.”
Nicola: “This experience allowed me to better comprehend the company core business, the possible job roles, the different working approaches and I could also learn new tasks. I’m happy I could see the real working environment first-hand because I’ll have to do with it in a few years.”
We are happy that these two young people had a satisfying experience in GemmeCotti and we hope we could host many other willing students like Georgia and Nicola in the future.
This year, GemmeCotti decided to support an initiative which is important for us and we made a special gift to children.
We contributed to a fundraiser organized by a non-profit organization called “Comocuore”. They are located in Como and since 1985 they have been promoting initiatives with the aim to reduce death rate due to heart deseases. The word “Cuore” in Italian actually means “heart”.
Thanks to the initiative called “Missione Cuore” (“Heart Mission”) we bought walnuts to contribute to the donation of 50 defibrillators to many schools in our territory. It’s very important for us to know that these defibrillators could save children’s lives, making our schools a safer place for them.
If someone else is interested in sustaining Comocuore, you could find more info at the following website: https://www.comocuore.org
