Our Story
About Us
Founded on February 15, 1985 as a Limited Liability Company, Alfatech S.p.A. took an important step in 1997 by transforming into a Joint Stock Company, in line with the growth of its business.
In 40 years of experience, we have collaborated with some of the most prestigious names, such as the ENI group, all Italian universities and CNR centers, as well as the country’s leading pharmaceutical, food and experimental industries.
Our customized instruments and solutions operate in traditional and extreme environments, such as the Italian Antarctic base, the CNR laboratory on K2 and the International Space Station. We are also present beyond Italian borders, with installations in the United States, San Marino and the Vatican.
Activities
Since its founding, Alfatech S.p.A. has specialized in the import and installation of scientific research instruments, with the ability to operate across the entire Italian national territory and beyond. The instruments that Alfatech S.p.A. handles are exclusively imported from the USA, Japan, Switzerland, Germany, France, the Netherlands, and England. This ensures high-quality standards and quick solutions to any need.
Alfatech S.p.A. has chosen to operate in niche sectors where a high level of specialization is required. Thanks to direct relationships with manufacturing companies, technicians receive training directly at the factories.
A significant group of products has, since the beginning, consisted of chromatography instrumentation, featuring specialized detectors, specific software, and robotic samplers, all compatible with HPLC, UHPLC, GC, CE, TLC, HPTLC, Flash Chromatography, and SFC systems.
In this field, we offer tailored solutions for the most complex challenges using Electrochemical, MALS, ELSD, Chemiluminescence, and LIF detectors, as well as sample sampling and preparation systems using SPE, SPDE, SPME, and headspace techniques.
Equally important is the sector dedicated to Medicinal Chemistry and, more broadly, organic synthesis. In this market segment, we provide products and instruments for the synthesis, purification, and concentration of synthetic products.
Equally crucial is the environmental sector, in which Alfatech has been active for over ten years, primarily providing sample preparation systems for the analysis of organic micropollutants in soil, air, and water, such as dioxins and PCBs, where permissible concentration levels are trace-level.
Finally, a distinct technological sector consists of syringe pumping systems for feeding reactors or for rock permeation studies and supercritical phase extraction plants.
At Alfatech S.p.A.’s headquarters in Genoa, in addition to the commercial structure, we have established a technical support service, which is the company’s flagship.
Since 2008, Alfatech has opened a commercial office in the province of Milan.
Additionally, Alfatech S.p.A. has a significant warehouse where high-demand goods and primary instruments are stored to ensure quick deliveries to customers.
Alfatech S.p.A. is capable of providing analytical service and/or analytical method development. Our application support service is staffed by experienced chemists who are available to assist customers with sample analysis and field testing.
Alfatech S.p.A. provides its clients with a training facility where its specialists conduct educational, preparatory, and in-depth sessions on the instruments and associated techniques for operators. This is complemented by laboratory activities focused on hands-on learning for practical applications.
