WDE MASPELL S.r.l.
Since the early 900s there have been numerous attempts to carry out a process of drying wood using vacuum, but despite all the studies carried out, it was not possible to make this process industrial. In 1962 the engineer. Vincenzo Pagnozzi begins his original research in Turin on the drying of timber with the vacuum method, which will end in 1965 with the filing of the relative patent. On the basis of this invention, a company is established that gradually grows producing machinery and developing new technologies that generate 89 patents during the first decades of activity.
