Our Story

Since it was founded in 1987, Valmar has stood out as a highly specialized manufacturer of machines for gelato products. The company speciality was, and still is, high-efficiency artisan batch freezers and later high-capacity batch freezers up to 28 kg of gelato per production cycle.

Valmar’s key strengths are the competence, passion and resolution of its founder, Mr Valter Jejcic, a product-developer who graduated in mechanical engineering in 1984 with a degree thesis on gelato making equipment. Mr Jejcic not only is a manager in his company but also coordinates the technical department R&D activity and is one of the most qualified experts of cooling technology in the gelato machine sector.

The competence and know-how of Valmar’s owner have led the company to develop an innovative and cutting-edge technology applied, among others, to the new series of Valmar TTi machines, which meets the different needs of the food sector: gelato products, confectionery, food service and Ho.Re.Ca.

Valmar’s steady growth over the latest years – both in terms of business and turnover – derives from successful products (particularly appreciated by the most demanding and professional gelato makers), from the technological gap between Valmar machines and the competitors’ as well as from the evolution and launch of the unique VALMARCOMBISYSTEM batch system. For this reason, the company has undergone a brand repositioning process at a global level and is now one of the most reliable and accredited operators in its reference sector.
