COLUMBIA
A FAMILYSTORY


The history of the Toniolo family is a success story that has reached the second generation, in which the development of a multinational company perfectly combines with the past, present and future of a tenacious Italian family. It is above all a united family that has always lived by its founding values of willfulness and integrity. We must go back to the early 1980s to discover the roots of this success. Years in which Roberto Toniolo and his wife Vania Cestaro brought a commercial company for chemical additives to become a global leader in the production of monomers and water-soluble polymers for water treatment and other applications. Over the decades, thanks to internally developed technology and vertical process integration, the Group became international, expanding with new companies, production sites and sales offices in Europe and North America.
