The Company

The Avanti Company has been servicing the Florida measurement and control market since 1977. We provide engineered products for a varied range of conditions. Our equipment is of the highest quality and if unforeseen difficulties arise, we back our sales with in-house service capability which will usually result in on-the-spot correction. It is our policy to help everyone we can, and when we cannot, to help you find the answer.

We are located in Avon Park, Florida, at the center of the state, approximately one hour south of Orlando. For those who are curious, Avanti is Italian for "Go Forward", and our dove symbolizes the "Holy Spirit" and "Peace".
