Our story begins in 1958 when Gumercindo Machado and his wife, Berenice Ribeiro, founded SOTEPA, which would later become U&M. Its entire fleet consisted of a solitary tractor, a Hanomag K60, but they had a dream and strong ambition to make a difference.
We have two Component and Equipment Rebuild centers, developing technologies used in heavy construction and mining projects.
We maintain a physical inventory of components to ensure reliability, agility and safety in the projects we undertake.
U&M is involved in innovative and regenerative socio-environmental initiatives. Nature, people, education, awareness, and a vision for the future all make a difference. Some of these are described below.
A unique project covering over 6,000 hectares, with 98% in the process of regeneration, focusing on the recovery of native flora and fauna. The Ibiti Project also makes a social commitment. Through regenerative tourism, it invests in the region’s economic sustainability.
The goal is to create a fertile environment for happiness to flourish, fostering harmony between people and the environment.
Comprised of a set of buildings with approximately 30,000 m² of built-up area, Moinho in Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais state, is structured around four key areas – Housing, Health, Education and Commerce. These areas work organically to offer users, residents, and visitors a unique and comprehensive experience, meeting their diverse needs in a one-stop-shop, both now and in the future.
Moinho aims to foster and strengthen social interaction as a transformative force in human relationships, providing a work setting that inspires innovation and sparks creativity.
