1947

After World War II, Italy needed
to be rebuilt. FIORI started
making trucks adapting
US Army old vehicles.

1956

The off-road mobility requirements led
FIORI to design the first 2WD/1 m3
capacity front tip compacted dumper.

1960

For the first time ever in off-road
dumpers, the 2,5 m3 capacity dumper
was equipped with a 180° pivoting
driving seat.

1965

A revolution for compacted dumpers:
4x4, hubs with planetary gears and the
self-loading hydraulic system.

1965

The first concept of SELF-LOADING
MIXER: an independent off-road vehicle
able to produce, deliver and cast
concrete at any job sites.

1968

In order to increase efficiency, FIORI
applied the concept of a 180° pivoting
driver’s seat and the back loading arm
to the Self-Loading Mixer.

1974

Adaptation to a LOADER loading style
and increased flexibility, introducing
4WS to Self-Loading Mixers
for the first time ever.

1982

The first Self-Loading Mixer with 180°
drum rotation on the market, improved
the ability to pour concrete anywhere in
the job site.

1991

Made for small job sites, thanks to an
articulated frame and 1,5 m3 capacity,
the DB 150 was the most compacted
SLM in the market.

1999

In order to increase the flexibility and
visibility of the pouring, FIORI patented
an extended drum rotation system
which permits a 360° chute positioning.

2007

The MIXER 4000 was the first
off-road Volumetric Mixer ever built.
Fresh concrete wherever
and whenever at any job sites.

2010

Difficult job sites (as tunnels, mines, etc…)
require off-road transit mixers built with
4WS and 4WD, and the 180° pivoting
driver’s seat.

2011

Equipped with the Fiori Batch Controller,
the CBV’s series is the first SLM ever
that can mix and pour “certified
concrete”.

2014

The X Generation: the most “cost
effective” SLM on the market.
Reduced footprint, easy to transport,
easy to operate, easy to maintain.

2017

DB X35 Big Bag, The world’s first
Self-Loading Mixer specifically designed to
prepare dry pre-mix. This innovative,
internationally patented system for
Self-Loading big bags has been awarded
the SAMOTER INNOVATION AWARD 2017.
