In today’s developed world where the availability of virgin ground for building purposes is becoming increasingly rare, new building is often associated with the need to demolish property that no longer has any architectural features worth preserving and which is destined to fall into an advanced state of abandon due to obsolescence.

The phenomenon quite often occurs within the heart of a city, where the need arises to restore functionality and a give new look to a highly degraded zone, or to make entire quarters dominated by the presence of derelict factories liveable and attractive.

This sector of activities is extremely delicate and can only be entered by those possessing the highest qualifications in engineering and structural mechanics.

In particular, working in the sector requires avant-garde machinery and high profile professional figures capable of facing all the risks linked to such an inherently traumatic operation in complete safety.

Vitali has a special safety management system that constantly monitors and evaluates all possible dangers.

Risk analysis, detailed operational procedures and continuous personnel training allow entire projects to be planned and executed in complete safety.

All the necessary preventive and protective measures are adopted throughout each phase of the demolition.
