On March 5th, 2026, we acquired 100% of the shares in Rotork Instruments S.r.l.

The company is headquartered in Bergamo, Italy. M&M Instruments S.r.l employs approximately 40 people and has an annual turnover of about EUR 8 million.
“Joining a solid group like Dacke Industri, with its long-term vision, represents a significant opportunity to consolidate our achievements and accelerate our growth trajectory,” says Flavio Coscia, CEO of M&M Instruments S.r.l.

“The addition of M&M Instruments’ advanced valve solutions broadens our product portfolio and reinforces our strategic position in the global flow control market. Expanding our presence in Italy further opens new opportunities and will drive continued development.
