A 360° virtual tour in the departments and offices of Imeta

Why would you need Imeta?

Imeta has been specializing in designing and producing seaming rolls and chucks, changeover parts, conversion kits and various spare parts for seaming machines.

Our experienced technical department develops seaming chucks and rolls working with a complete database of over 4,000 different seaming profiles, all having different designs and materials.

Exports make up around 85% of our turnover so we export many spare parts worldwide and provide services to all types of can-making factories, plus canneries filling such products as food and beverage, baby food and pet food.

Thanks to the support of external agents and our network, we guarantee a complete and optimized service.

What is special about Imeta spare parts?

Imeta carefully selects components and raw materials. We pay close attention to their heat treatment and they undergo a series of strict tests. Furthermore, thanks to the specialist steels used in our parts, maintenance times are reduced and productivity is increased.

We use innovative surface coatings to improve the quality of seams and increase the lifespan of the product itself.

Imeta is a large team of people

Today our team is made up of approximately 90 people. The majority of our spare parts are produced within our factory (making them truly MADE IN ITALY). We work with numerous external suppliers to boost the company’s overall competitiveness, but innovation and know-how is a key in-house strength, which is constantly enhanced by ongoing investments in research and development.

We guarantee a comprehensive and personalized service starting with our internal seaming laboratory where a series of tests are run on samples cans and covers in order to identify the right seaming profile.

Imeta holds over 15,000 spare parts in our warehouse ready for IMMEDIATE DELIVERY, so that we are able to act swiftly to solve your problems whilst also reducing shipment times.

Furthermore, in order to reduce manufacturing times, thousands of semi-finished chucks and rolls are ready in the warehouse awaiting their final profile-finishing phase, depending on the specific needs of the client.

With over 50 years in the industry, Imeta is perfectly positioned to provide you with a full range of spares and tooling, various change parts, plus our services for machine overhauling for many different model seaming machines.
