Our History

Kastel was founded in the year 2000 following years of experience in the manufacture of professional equipment.

Expertise, industrial standard quality and ongoing research in new technologies have made Kastel an important entity in the ice business with a commitment to satisfying market requests worldwide. In 2013 Kastel changed ownership and was incorporated by Aristarco S.p.A., a sound well-established enterprise with premises of 14.000m², operating with a manufacturing capacity of up to 30.000 units per annum, employing 60 skilled workers, technicians and engineers.

All stages from design to the making, take place within the Castelfranco Veneto premises, which comprise 14.000 m² of operating facilities with more than 60 employees. A choice which has become a true distinctive company image: a modus operandi which allows for an optimal work flow and complete control of the product, therefore guaranteeing outstanding quality, manufacturing flexibility and ongoing improvement.
