Real support in choosing the right materials

Our technical team works alongside companies, workshops and construction sites to choose the right material for the job: from the type of fixing to the strength grade of the fasteners, right through to selecting the correct PPE for every task.
You don't need to arrive with a clear idea already in mind. Just describe the job at hand, the conditions it will be used in, or the problem you need to solve, and our technician will find the right solution among the thousands of part numbers we hold in stock.
A few concrete examples: finding the right fixing for a plasterboard or reinforced concrete surface, checking which PPE meets the risk profile of a specific task, or choosing the right lubricant for a high-temperature application. These are technical decisions that affect safety, product lifespan and costs.

When technical consulting makes the difference

Choosing the wrong material costs time and, often, safety: a screw with insufficient strength, an anchor unsuited to the surface, or non-compliant PPE are mistakes that come at a price on site.
Here are some areas where talking to a technician really makes a difference:

• Fasteners and fixings: choosing the right strength grade and anchoring type for the surface and load involved.
• PPE and safety equipment: identifying the right equipment based on the task and the level of risk.
• Compressed air: checking the compatibility of components and accessories with your existing system.
• Professional tools: choosing the tool best suited to the job at hand.
• Lubricants and chemical products: choosing the right product based on temperature, contact material and type of application.
• Materials for critical environments: selecting components resistant to corrosion, humidity or extreme temperatures.

When standard materials aren't enough

Technical consulting is especially valuable for non-standard applications. Corrosive environments, extreme temperatures, specific safety regulations or unconventional surfaces call for a case-by-case assessment, not a choice made straight from a catalogue.
In these cases, choosing the wrong material isn't just an inconvenience: it can mean a halted job site, a compliance failure, or a risk to the people working there. That's why it pays to talk to our technician before ordering a critical material.

How to contact our technician

Contact is direct, with no intermediate steps to follow. Call, write, or stop by in person: describe the job at hand and our technician will get back to you with a concrete solution.
You don't need to already be a customer or have an order in progress: our consulting service is also available for a one-off supply or a single problem to solve.

One point of contact, real expertise

For over 50 years, Cecchinato has supported companies across Italy and around the world with industrial consumables. This experience translates into practical consulting, grounded in real-world work.
Having a single point of contact for fasteners, fixings, PPE, compressed air and tools means you don't have to chase down a different supplier for every product category. And with a warehouse stocking over 20,000 part numbers, the solution we find is often ready for delivery without delay.
