History
What does it mean to get involved? The answer lies in the pride of being able to celebrate the milestone of half a century of activity. Since 1974, a small artisanal business has been able to build, reinvent and renew itself until today, where we can proudly say that we are a key player in the global HO.RE.CA market. Our everyday work celebrates and evolves the entrepreneurial spirit that founded this company. At ROCAM, we don't see half a century as a finish line but as a new starting point to become even more competitive and innovative. With passion and dedication, we create excellence to add value to your projects. ROCAM comes to life in a basement in the Milanese hinterland in April 1974, thanks to an intuition of the founder Ezio Rastelli. The economic boom of those years and the increasing number of canteens, bars, and restaurants created the need for a fast and comfortable meal distribution during work lunch breaks, leading to the birth of our first steel service trolley, entirely handmade. During the 1980s, ROCAM's production expanded to include solid wood trolleys and thermal trolleys for the distribution of hot meals. Moreover, the high demand for its products throughout the national territory necessitated an expansion of the production site, which was relocated to a factory in Abbiategrasso (MI). These are the years of designing and producing the first line of hot and cold buffets. Thanks to its constant presence at the most important international trade fairs in the industry, ROCAM managed to significantly increase its presence across Europe as well. In 2008, the company relocated to its current headquarters in Albairate (MI), occupying a 5000 square meter area entirely dedicated to production and warehousing. With the time ripe for further expansion, our range has been enriched with increasingly efficient and innovative solutions. During the 2010s, ROCAM embarked on an intensive journey of research and development, culminating in the creation of the innovative DROP-IN and OMNIA lines. These lines epitomize versatility and customization, offering solutions tailored to meet diverse needs and preferences. In the 2020s, ROCAM underwent a transformative machinery upgrade, embracing cutting-edge technologies such as gas replenishment, automation 4.0, fiber laser, and next-generation vertical drilling and milling machines. These innovations signify a landmark achievement as ROCAM continues to lead the industry with groundbreaking advancements.
