A celebration of our history
The story of SOGA trademark starts back in 1966: Lino Soga, with his father Pietro, established the company in Montecchio Maggiore, his hometown.
A family surname which will become an acknowledged name in the Italian electromechanical industry, a guarantee of quality in the design and manufacturing of rotating electrical machines.
During following decades, long-term business decisions and strategic acquisitions led the company to grow with a steady rise within Italian and foreign markets. Year after year, SOGA increases its customer base, opens plants, develops cutting-edge products, enters new sectors by achieving leadership and orders, while progressively expands its sales presence into the 5 continents.
Over these 59 years, SOGA has been successfully shaping its identity and international reputation: reliability, strong Italian roots, and a cosmopolitan business.
SOGA® : a bastion of Made in Italy
Today, SOGA SpA is a company with strong roots in the Vicenza area which has seen its birth and growth, recognized worldwide through its brands.
Among them, since its foundation the SOGA trademark – now registered in the special register of historical Italian trademarks – identifies all our electric motors with asynchronous technology: single-phase, three-phase, low center, permanent magnet and gearmotors, that we produce in standard, special, or custom versions for OEMs in a large range of sectors.
Our manufacturing has always been Made in Italy in our plants located in Via della Tecnica in Montecchio, where we daily produce the largest part of our components (windings for stators and rotors: the copper heart of each of our products, as well as flanges, shields and shafts) and where we assemble and test our electric motors by using Lean method and Industry 4.0 machineries with automated equipment.
In the words of our founder
Lino Soga: “Being recognized as a Historical Brand, among the long-established Italian companies that represent our Country’s manufacturing excellence, is a source of pride, a milestone for our company, and an acknowledgment of trust towards customers. In 2026 we’ll celebrate SOGA SpA’s 60th anniversary. I consider this recognition as a significant added value also for our employees. They are the ones who bring my family’s entrepreneurial dream to life. From our hands, to the ends of the world!”
Tradition, and future.
And we’re not stopping. A trademark and a history of 60 years are a new beginning, for SOGA. A company with a deep tradition, firmly focused on the future.
