One of the key highlights of the partnership is the promotion of modular container data centers, an increasingly popular solution when quick deployment, phased scaling, and high availability are priorities, avoiding the delays associated with complex construction or traditional infrastructure timelines.
Meanwhile, V-Valley leverages its experience in distributing high-value solutions, its network of partners, and logistical capabilities, committing to strengthen technical support and shorten delivery times. The company also plans to launch training programs, in-person workshops, and assistance in developing complex proposals, aiming to help partners identify opportunities and close projects more efficiently.
According to Luisa Paolucci, V-Valley’s Director, the addition of Rittal reinforces the strategy of offering “comprehensive, high-value solutions” to the channel, especially for data center, industrial, and energy projects, with a focus on efficiency and sustainability. Iván Gimeno, Business Development Manager at Rittal, describes the agreement as a further step in expanding their network of specialized distributors in Spain, supported by V-Valley’s technical expertise and direct manufacturer support to grow data center and Industry 4.0 deployments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which types of projects will benefit most from the V-Valley–Rittal agreement?
Primarily data center, edge, and industrial automation deployments requiring modularity, reliability, efficient cooling, and specialized technical support.
What are modular container data centers, and why are they growing in popularity?
They are “prefabricated” and expandable data centers designed for rapid deployment, phased scaling, and simplified startup in remote or industrial locations.
How important is energy efficiency in these solutions?
It’s a critical factor: cooling, electrical distribution, and equipment design directly impact power consumption, density, maintenance, and operational uptime.
Does the agreement only cover data centers, or does it also include Industry 4.0?
It covers both: the portfolio ranges from electrical cabinets and automation to IT infrastructure, edge computing, and monitoring solutions.
