VOLPI ORIGINALE
Davide e Luigi Volpi Spa.
Davide e Luigi Volpi Spa manufactures a complete range of equipment for agriculture, gardening and industrial use: quality products, 100% tested, reliable and easy to use.
The Company was established in 1879 to produce manual knapsack sprayers. Over the years, the range of products has become more complete adding compression sprayers, dusters and battery-powered sprayers.
A company in continuous evolution.
All phases, from design to testing, are developed inside the company and every operation of the production cycle is followed meticulously in accordance with procedures established and guaranteed by the Quality Certification UNI EN ISO 9001:2015.
The continuous and always up-to-date technological research allowed Volpi to be one of the leaders of the market reaching high levels of quality and a high degree of products reliability.
Over the years, the company has built its own BRAND – VOLPI ORIGINALE – under which the various lines are enclosed.
VOLPI ORIGINALE brand is well known in the national and international markets for:
- The quality of their products
- The complete range of products
- The after-sales service reserved to its customers.
The foundation for the future
The strong seasonality of spraying products has led the company to undertake a strategic path of diversification, thus choosing to introduce in its portfolio two other lines of products characterised by complementary seasonality and common distribution structure to those already treated.
The first line of diversification introduced concerns small battery-powered electric machines for olive harvesting. The seasonality of these products goes from September to December, therefore perfectly complementary to the spraying season.
The second line of diversification concerns battery-powered electronic pruning tools. Their seasonality goes from December to March, perfectly filling the whole year.
A way for Volpi to be always close to its customers and to provide them with different products in the different moments of the year.
