The beginning
How we started and where we are today
The Seli-kab production site takes its origins from a Siemens installation in 1974, it comes as a production of electromechanical equipment and then it has been converted into electronic production in 1980 when Italtel was born from a change of the SIT-Siemens company name.
The production bases of the Carini plant are the result of the need to produce the new totally electronic switching telephone system called the “UT System“. Later the production also moved to other technologies to meet the new market requirements, until it became, after the Italtel spin-off of manufacturing activities, an EMS dedicated production site (contract manufacturing). Selital is born.
In the following years, the Carini site plant specialized in the automotive production, white, telecommunications, alternative energy and military sectors.
In 2017 Kab-lem Group takes control on Selital, the new company takes on its current corporate name: Seli-kab.
Denso Thermal System S.P.A acquires 19,9% of Seli-Kab. Tecno System S.P.A acquires the shares from the Kab-Lem group and takes control of Seli-Kab
