our history
6/7
1975-1983 The story begins with the birth of a technical office, Studio Alfa Irrigazione, specialized in the design and installation of irrigation systems. This experience soon evolves into Plastica Alfa Srl, a company manufacturing plastic pipe fittings to support the Studio : working with just two molding presses the production of Alfa Jo drippers and barbed fittings begins.
1985 The company exhibit for the first time to the international trade show, Eima in Bologna: from this year on, our presence to the international trade shows becomes a strategic moment for the presentation of new products and the confrontation with the other companies.
1987 The first line of plastic cylinder valves and ball valves for irrigation is born. Thanks to these items the company enters the foreign market.
1989-1990 The company widens its production to a new field: thermo-hydraulics, with a line of pipe and fittings in polypropylene random (PPR): the Alfaidro system is born.
1991-1992 the project for the first compression fittings line takes shape: the BluLine enters the market quickly becoming a fundamental support for hydraulics and irrigation.
1994 Plastica Alfa obtains the Quality Management System Certificate: it is one of the first companies to endow a control system of all the internal production processes.
1995 The second compression fittings line is projected and realized: BLACK line, specifically intended for irrigation.
1996-1998 Plastica Alfa strengthen its irrigation production: drip line fittings and tape fittings are born, both lines are characterized by a high level of flexibility in the installation.
1999-2000 A two year period of flurry production: Venturi ALFA injectors, Valve Boxes, Disk Filters line, all these products are improved and completed with all the measures in the following years, becoming popular in the foreign market. 2000 The company obtains the Certif ication for the Environmental Management System fulfilling the requirements of the UNI EN ISO 14001 standard.
2000-2001 The production department and the workshop 2move to the new factory covering an area of 6.000 m . The
company invests in new technologies, introducing CAD (Computer Aided Design) CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) system.
During the following years other computer numerical controlled tools are employed (CNC workstations, milling machines, electron discharge lathes).
2001The third compression fittings line is born, Blu Line PLUS, characterized by an innovative design, quick joint system and high performances (PN16).The Quality System improves, fulfilling the new requirements of UNI EN ISO “VISION” 9000:2000 standard.
2002 The company acquires a factory for the production of PE, PPR and spiral pipes.
2003 The administrative offices move to the new premises 2 2 covering an area of 16.700 m , thus counting 32.000 m in total
together with the existing factories.
2004-2006 Our first PPR valve with metal ball is born: the Valvevolution range is widened in a short time with the threaded version in PPGF (Polypropylene with Fiberglass), flanged and Victaulic connections for irrigation, hydraulics, food & beverage industry.
2007 Plastica Alfa together with Valvevolution and Blu Line PLUS brands, fruits of the company's creative ideas, become copyrighted trademarks.
2008 The company widens its products range with MULTYPEXALFA: the new Pex-Al-Pex multilayer pipe and a line of brass nickel plated Press Fittings.
2010-2012 The new ALFATURBO Hydrocyclone is born: is the first hydrocyclone entirely made of tecno-polymers with very high performances and a lot of different configurations, that’s why it is an indispensable complement for every kind of filtration network.
2013-2016 Two new ranges are on the market at the same time: Alfa DRAIN a new line of trapped floor drains intented for the pubblic spaces, sport facilities, swimming pools or parking areas; and ALFAIDRO FASER, the ultimate PPR Systems with multilayer pipes with glass or other special fiber inside. In this range is also included the firefighting system NOFIRE Pipe with European Certification against flames and toxic emission.

MULTYPEXALFA is an integrated system in PEX-AL-PEX (cross linked polyethylene coextruded with an aluminium layer) designed for various applications: traditional heating systems, floor heating, water supply, sanitary and cooling systems. MULTYPEXALFA is a multilayer pipe made of 3 layers joint through an adhesive; the intermediary layer is constituted by an aluminium foil (butt-weld during the extrusion) that makes the pipe totally oxygenproof, also conferring higher resistance to pressure, under-pressure and crashing although maintaining its ductility; the organoleptic properties of the fluids conveyed remain unchanged.
The strength of MULTYPEXALFA lies in its extreme simple use, long duration and safety of the system.

Since their introduction within the circuits of water conveyance, the ball valves have represented an important innovation. A new method of closing the ducts of interception was born: the role of gate was played for the first time by a drilled sphere rotating around an orthogonal axis.This new type of valves has covered the fundamental function of lines connection and control showing immediately its advantages: flexible use, good seal under strong pressures, facility of operation, scarce usury in the time, low loss of load. Exactly in this evolutionary view, the new line of compact valves ValvEvolution wanted by Plastica Alfa takes its place within the technological reconnaissances for the improvement of the products offered to the market. It is a line of one piece body valves: the entirely plastic body, without welding in order to avoid critical crack points, is built through an only procedure of fusion and injection moulding rigorously checked.The invulnerability of this product is strengthened by its resistance to corrosion, mechanical stress, formation of calcareous deposits, typical characteristics of the plastic body.

gardening, irrigation & filtration
Irrigation is the main sector of the first part of Plastica Alfa life: in fact the dripper “Alfa Jo” was absolutely the first
product made by the company. Then many others products came to complete and widen the range that nowadays
comprehends also many solutions for localized irrigation, greenhouse cooling, drop irrigation and micro-irrigation.
Among the drippers the auto-compensation ones have particularly importance together with foggers and turning
sprinklers. The range of barbed fittings is one of the most complete in the world (from the diameter of 16 to 90) and is
now endowed with the coupling for lay-flat (2”, 3” and 4”).
In the Garden section there are many solutions for the creation and the maintenance of the garden: the valve box, that
is a fundamental accessory for the garden irrigation plant, available in different size and reinforced materials (PPGF),
the pup-up sprinklers now also with raiser, the electric valves and the quick-joint fittings…

The filtration and fertigation fields are two of the most important areas for
the application of Plastica Alfa R&D achievements: the first group of
products includes numerous type of filters, disk or screen and self
cleaning, in different sizes with the possibility of being used in filtering banks,
the second group is referred to the fertigation system with the use of
injectors (Venturi like) for proportional mixing of fertilizer fluid and water,
fundamental for extensive irrigation and crops maintenance.
The BLUFERT fertigation system is designed to manage irrigation and
fertigation in greenhouses and in the open field , open loop .
The fertilizer injection can be driven by nvolumetric programming or by EC
(electric conductibility). Irrigation can be programmed via a hourly schedule
, cyclical repetitions in fixed intervals or modulated by external sensor
integration (typically a solar radiation sensor )

The Research and Development department of , always committed to the design, development and test PLASTICA ALFA
of new products, has now finalized the new sand separator : by using the centrifugal HYDROCYCLONE ALFA TURBO
force, it is able to remove great quantity of sand, slags and solid particles from the water. More specifically, the water
comes in from the upper part of the filter tangentially to the body and is accelerated by the rotating motion, the sand and
solid particles in the water are pushed against the conical walls of the body from the centrifugal force settling in the bleed
tank while clean water goes up again from the central part of the filter.motion of the water .

Advanced polymer based materials
Plastica Alfa R&D Department develops high-performance composite and functionalized polymer systems in terms of flame
retardant and resistance to aggressive chemicals. In the fire safety field Free halogen – based flame retardant polymer
compounds have been developed. In the water application the contact with aggressive chemicals (such as ClO2) is one of the
most critical aspects in corrosion phenomena of metal and plastic materials. Plastica Alfa is developing innovative materials
made up of polyolefins/polyamide reactive mixture. In these multilayer products the polyamide substrate forms the chemical
active layer to protect pipes from aggressive chemical actions.
Energy and water saving are two fundamental concepts for Plastica Alfa.In the renewable energy field the Company is involved in an R&D project to develop an innovative polymeric based vertical axis microeolic system.
Water management is the main field of application for Plastica Alfa products. In this field, R&D Department is engaged in an advanced project to develop new catalyzed filter for civil and industrial water treatment.
Plastica Alfa is constantly involved on innovative materials or systems for too. Smart AgricultureThis technological system is able to verify the real condition of land to irrigate using just the real quantity of water requested based on specific parameters such as meteorological condition or effective real moisture of the land.

BIO4BIO: Advanced Process for biomolecular and energy conversion of Agroindustry residual biomassPlastica Alfa plays a leading role in “BIO4BIO”, one of the most important National R&D Project supported by Ministry of Education, University and Research (MIUR). The aim of the project is the valorization of Agroindustry residual waste biomass. BIO4BIO Project is developed in collaboration with National Council of Research (CNR) and Chemical and Engineering Universities.
In the same project, innovative energy conversion of biomass based on pyrolysis processes has b e e n d e v e l o p e d . S p e c i f i c biochemical activities are focused on the carbon capture and c o n v e r s i o n t o o . I n n o v a t i v e biochemical process of CO2 conversion in microalgae will be d e v e l o p e d . T h e a i m i s t h e production of algae biomass to extract specific components for application in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical fields.
Starting from the residual biomass of orange juice production, an innovative drying process has been developed. The aim is to preserve and protect most of chemical components that are present into the biomass such as “pectine”, an important product for nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and zootechnic feed appllications.
