Our name, our history

Sidercad has been an Italian Engineering and Information Technology Company active in the international market since 1980. The name Sidercad, which comes from the combination of “sider” (steel) and “cad” (computer-aided Design) refers to the initial mission of the company, established as a part of Italsider, to encourage the use of steel by developing automatic design techniques. The initial experience in the design of steel structures grew over the time and gave rise to an all-round Engineering sector and an independent Information Technology sector.
