CDR Pompe DAY 2026: a day of sport, people and the future

On September 25, 2026, CDR Pompe brought its team together at the Stadio Brianteo in Monza for CDR DAY, a day dedicated to the people who are part of the company and to the relationships built over the years with customers and collaborators. Following the team-building experiences organized in 2024 and 2025, this year's event was once again run by The Good in Town, with a program that alternated social moments, sports activities and valuable opportunities for exchange.

Lunch opened the day, creating an informal space to spend time together away from the usual work routine. The afternoon, in turn, focused on sports activities, on recognizing the people who have worked at CDR Pompe for years, and on sharing the experiences of some of the company's customers.

On the Field with ASD Arcobaleno Calcio Monza

At CDR DAY 2026, sports played a central role, starting with the soccer training session organized together with ASD Arcobaleno Calcio Monza. The choice of this Monza-based association added special meaning to the activity: for years, Arcobaleno has carried out a sports project that also serves people with cognitive and relational disabilities, using soccer as an opportunity for participation, growth and inclusion.

In 2026 the team also won the regional championship, crowning a journey built over time through the work of its athletes and staff. For CDR DAY participants, it was therefore a chance to share the field with a local sports organization that knows well the value of participation and competition, without separating the two.

After soccer, the day continued with table football and ping pong. The pace changed, but the spirit of friendly competition among colleagues remained: quick matches, impromptu challenges, some healthy rivalry and the chance to spend time together in a way that differs from a normal working day.

Ten, Twenty, Thirty-Five Years: The CDR Pompe Story Is Also About People

Among the most important moments of CDR DAY was the presentation of trophies to colleagues who have worked with us for more than ten years. A simple recognition, yet one that conveys, through very precise numbers, the continuity of some professional careers within the company.

The standout figure is that of the colleague who has reached 35 years of service and is still active. Thirty-five years means having lived through transformations, technological change, new markets and different phases of the company's life, while maintaining one's role and contribution over time.

Such a long tenure in the same company brings with it something you won't find in manuals: knowledge gained in the field, experience, memory of decisions made over the years and familiarity with the way the company works. The trophy presentation was therefore also a way to give visibility to these professional stories and to those who have accompanied CDR Pompe through a significant part of its journey.

When Customers Tell the CDR Pompe Story

CDR DAY also brought together some of the people who experience CDR Pompe from another perspective: that of customers. Some of them took part in the day and shared their experience with the company, bringing to the event the point of view of those who have come to know CDR through everyday work over the years.

It is an interesting moment because it shifts the story from the inside to the outside. For those who work at the company, a product or a supply can be part of everyday activities; for the customer, those same activities instead become the result of a relationship made up of technical requirements, requests, discussions and answers.

Their testimonials therefore gave voice to the relationship that builds over time between CDR Pompe and those who choose to rely on our experience for handling toxic, hazardous or corrosive substances. The customers' presence also added to the day an opportunity to meet that differs from the one that normally arises around an order or a production need, making it possible to share experiences and viewpoints in a more informal setting.

From CDR DAY to Our Next Goals

After the soccer, the recreational activities, the awards and the customer testimonials, CDR DAY also made room for a presentation of the company's future goals. It was the moment when the day turned attention back to daily operations and to CDR Pompe's next milestones, always focused on innovation and on investing in pumping solutions for the process industry.

The common thread of the event was thus quite clear: bringing around the same table people with different roles, experiences and perspectives, from those who have been with the company for just a few years to those who have lived a substantial part of its history, including customers who know its work from the market's point of view.

CDR DAY 2026 unfolded along precisely these lines, alternating the pleasure of being together with moments that say something about the company. The soccer field, the table football and ping pong matches, the trophies presented to our longest-serving colleagues, the experiences shared by customers and the presentation of future goals made up a day that was different from the routine, yet closely tied to the people and relationships that accompany the work of CDR every day.
