History

Coral.
A family history
In 1958, at the height of the Italian economic miracle, Orfeo Coral began working for himself in a small workshop bearing the name "Aerotecnica Coral," where he produced fans for industrial use. Only a few years passed before Erminio, Nevio and Luciano Coral, Orfeo's three very young sons, joined him in the business in 1964 and then took the lead of the company after their father's untimely death.
Then, thanks to a brilliant intuition, the three guys discovered a then almost unexplored market niche: air filtration from wood dust by mobile means. Success was immediate among woodworkers and craftsmen, allowing Erminio, Nevio and Luciano to develop new systems to extend that same concept to all industrial sectors and make, thus, the brand Coral recognized beyond national borders.
It was 1996 when the third generation appeared, consisting of Claudio, Ivano, Emanuela and Alberto Coral: their skills are different, but united by a vision of the future that looks to the whole world. And so it was that Coral began to be present throughout Europe (with French, British and German offices) and then elsewhere, with offices in the United Arab Emirates, India and the United States. Then, since 2016, the first members of the fourth generation, Giulia Roeta and Pietro Coral, have become operational, now committed to consolidating and enhancing the international presence that has made Coral one of the global leaders in air extraction and filtration.
