Founded in 2 000 for the Mr. Florentino Batista de Castilho , HL Equipamentos, initially known as HL Automação, began in a modest building at the back of its founder's residence, measuring 40m², in the city of Elias Fausto, SP.

In 2004 , with 8 employees and occupying approximately 160m², HL made its first sale of machinery to a multinational pharmaceutical company. This milestone expanded its portfolio of areas of activity and strengthened its credibility with customers .
Upon reaching 2007 , with more than 86 projects manufactured, the growing demand for machined parts for its projects led HL to acquire its first machining center. This investment stood out as one of the company's strengths, resulting in a new expansion to 250m².
