In 1896, the "Premiato Electric Power Mechanical Plant with Antonio Beltrame Foundry" was founded.

In the first half of the 20th century, thanks to technological progress and the emergence of new manufacturing demands, merchant bars products arrived on the market: flat, square, round, and angular bars as well as L, T, I, U, and H sections intended for structural uses.

This was the moment of
expansion in the Italian market.

In the second half of the 20th century the company consolidated with new plants in Marghera and San Giorgio di Nogaro, also acquiring the French Laminés Marchands Européens S.A.

In the 2000s AFV takes on the characteristics of a Group with Siderurgica Ferrero (2002), Swiss Stahl Gerlafingen (2006), and Romanian S.C. Donalam (2007).

AVF’s presence in the European market becomes very strong, leading to both a consolidation of leadership and diversification into other sectors.

Today AFV Beltrame Group is a multinational industrial company, a reliable and ambitious European leader whose products are destined for the construction, shipbuilding and railway, mechanical engineering, automotive, oil & gas, and energy sectors.
