The history
From the post-war period to today, the history of Truccolo Angelo tells a story of work, material recovery, family growth, and a constant connection with the local area of Fontanafredda and Pordenone.
From a bicycle with a small cart to a company now in its third generation
The history of Truccolo Angelo has its roots in the post-war period, when the founder Angelo Truccolo began collecting and recovering materials in a time when nothing was wasted. In the early 1950s, the business covered a wide range of materials: iron, metals, hides, bones, seeds, and other materials that at the time still had a real value for various production sectors, from fur manufacturing to soap production.
At the beginning, the work was carried out with simple means, starting with a bicycle and a small cart; then came the motor tricycle and, over time, a growth built day after day through hard work, knowledge of materials, and a direct relationship with the local area. From that first family business, the activity has progressively evolved into the company it is today, specialized in metal scrap recovery and services for businesses, construction sites, and private individuals.
Today, Truccolo Angelo is managed by the third generation of the family, with its sights already set on the fourth. It is a continuity built on practical experience, the ability to adapt to changing times, and the desire to carry forward a profession that has evolved over the years while maintaining the same founding value: recognizing resources where others only saw waste.
