Eldor’s is a story of birth and rebirth, as the symbol of a vision that is continuously
reinventing itself.
Eldor began in a garage, starting out small but with a very precise vision. The company formerly specialized in television sets and became a major global player over time. Mr. Forte then reinvented the company and brought the same passion for technology to the automotive industry, achieving the company’s current status as an international leader in the industry.
Pasquale Forte’s intuition continues to be the driving force behind the operations undertaken by the Group. Through his leadership, we have been able to put into practice one of his strongest maxims: «Believing before Seeing».

R&D Centers

The heart of the company is in Italy, at Orsenigo, Lomazzo, Milano, Torino, BolognaTeramo and Pescara. Wherever Eldor operates, all actions are guided by its Pyramid of Values. With these values, the synergy and integration between everyone’s different skillsets is the catalyst for inspired engineering. Moreover,these values provide a harmonious backdrop for making the discoveries that allow the company to create value, both in its products and in its manufacturing and automation processes.

Production Plants

Eldor’s five manufacturing plants are in Italy, China, Turkey, Brazil and USA. These plants have always operated under the same principles of value and culture that underpin a flawless, defect-free company, and these factors cancel out the geographic distances.
From beginning, we have always designed and built our production lines in-house, which gives us a true competitive advantage..

This is the outcome of our sound knowledge of robotics and mechatronics.

President

Entrepreneur, farmer, engineer, oenologist, inventor...
Pasquale Forte was born in Calabria, southern Italy in 1948; when he was ten years old, his family moved north, to the area of Brianza.
He dreamt about technology to improve the life of humankind and, in 1972, founded Eldor in a garage in the small provincial town of Orsenigo.
He loves describing himself as a pragmatic dreamer.

«We are facing a historic turning point, a revolution in technology and thinking where the arrival point will give us a very different company from the one we know”. Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things, self-driving cars and clean energy are just some of the aspects of a deep evolutionary process.

In my role of founder, President and CEO of Eldor, I can say that we started and were raised with a dream: the dream of a better world. Today, circumstances are such that we have the chance to achieve this dream of progress. We must, however, be pragmatic dreamers.
Only if we believe in something will we be able to see it. Only if we learn how to renew ourselves, change rapidly and adhere to solid values will we be able to take part in this enthralling landscape.

From a small, provincial company that started in a garage and operated in consumer electronics, Eldor was able to turn itself into a multinational leader in the Automotive industry and a partner of the major car manufacturers. This ascent makes me trust in our next mission, that of acquiring a predominant role in the future of mobility.

It is a challenge that we must face while keeping our values intact. Without values, organizations only live for a brief time. Economics and ethics cannot exist one without the other. Only when they operate side by side are they able to change the world».
