Somero Enterprises was founded in 1985 and has grown and prospered by delivering superior products to an international market. Manufacturing facilities are located in Michigan and Executive offices are in Fort Myers, Florida. Our products are marketed in Europe, Middle East and Africa, Latin America and Asia through direct sales force, sales representatives and dealers. The Somero Laser Screed® concrete screeding machine was developed in the mid 1980s based on patented technology to provide a highly accurate, mechanical method of screeding concrete for slab-on-grade floors. The introduction of the Somero Laser Screed machine coincided with increased demands for flatter and more level industrial/warehouse floors. Some additional benefits of using Somero Laser Screed equipment quickly became apparent to contractors and building owners; such as substantial labor savings, fast-track production through wide placement methods, and stronger, higher quality floors. A New VisionSomero changed their philosophy in 1998 with a vision to move from a one-product one-channel company to a multi-channeled solution provider to the construction industry. Over the next few years Somero successfully launched new products including the 3-D Profiler System®, the CopperHead®, STS-132 Topping Spreader and SP80 Concrete Placer. Somero continued developing the Laser Screed product line and introduced the CopperHead® XD 2.0, and the SXP® a completely new large line platform. The SXP® Laser Screed machine introduces Somero customers to attachments never before seen in our industry. In 2005 Somero moved into a new market segment with SiteShape™ a machine-controlling software package for fine subgrade machines like motor graders and bulldozers. This exciting new market provides Somero access to a diversified type of potential customers working with fine materials, concrete and asphalt. In August 2005, Somero introduced the all new PowerRake® and CopperHead® XD 3.0. These products continue a long line of productivity enhancing tools that are simple to use. In August 2006, Somero introduced the HoseHog™ to simplify the work of moving flexible concrete hose on job sites. Somero Enterprises is committed to constantly improving current products while researching and developing new technology for better, more innovative products of the future. Key Company personnel are actively involved in concrete related organizations and associations such as the ACI and NRMCA. |
