During the XXI SLOM Conference held in Panama, Roberto Madia, Technical Manager of ALFAGOMMA, shared the vision and technological advances of the Italian company, both in marine hoses and other products.
What is ALFAGOMMA?
With a plant located in Ortona, 200 kilometers from Rome, ALFAGOMMA is a company that manufactures advanced fluid transfer solutions in extreme conditions, mainly for the oil and gas, mining, agriculture, construction and transportation.
[post_relacionado]From floating hoses to subsea models, the company offers a robust portfolio, adapted to the most demanding technical challenges and its participation in SLOM responds to the interest in strengthening commercial relations in Latin America in a more precise way to local demands.
API certified marine hoses
Madia emphasized the recent achievement of API 17K certification, one of the most demanding in the field of marine hoses. This certification validates that the company’s hoses withstand high pressures, dynamic loads, can operate in extreme conditions and meet strict design requirements.
The company’s hoses integrate two reinforcement technologies, metallic textile and all-metal, allowing for greater design customization according to the operation in question. In addition, the company performs hydrodynamic and material fatigue analysis, to ensure product durability and functionality in every operating environment.
Consolidation in the Latin American market
As Roberto Madia explained, the company’s objective is to strengthen its positioning in Latin America, expanding its network of contacts and better understanding the technical needs of the market in order to offer products more closely aligned with those requirements. This regional interest is complemented by the company’s global capability, which has multiple divisions outside Italy focused on hydraulic hoses, couplings and industrial solutions for different segments of the energy chain.
Commitment to the energy future
Aware of the environmental impact of its operations and products, the company is actively working on the development of compounds with less harmful chemical load to reduce environmental risks, without neglecting the useful life of the hoses.
All this shows that the proposal of ALFAGOMMA rests on three pillars, advanced technology, focus on sustainability and strategic expansion. Its ability to manufacture marine hoses adapted to extreme conditions, together with the integration of innovative materials and digital monitoring, positions the company as a relevant player in the global energy transition.
