Allied International Group

What Allied International Group does

Allied International Group, founded in 2000 and headquartered in Borgonovo Val Tidone, Italy, is a privately held industrial platform controlling the complete cycle of production, stocking, and distribution of buttwelding fittings, pipes, flanges, bends, and prefabricated piping components. With 1,180 employees across 25 locations and nearly 100,000 tonnes of annual production capacity, the Group operates through manufacturing subsidiaries (Tectubi Raccordi, Gieminox, OMP Mongiardino Bending Division, Bassi Luigi, SIMAS, Interfit, BSL Pipes & Fittings, Tectubi Tianjin, Raccordi Forgiati) and distribution entities (Allied International, Allied Fitting L.P. / Warren Alloy, Phocéenne, SAIC Industries, Caspian Allied International), supplemented by three Saudi Arabian joint ventures with Rafid Group. Core capabilities include hot induction bending (Cojafex PB 600/1000, Schäfer SRBMI 1400), patented cold bending (registered industrial method enabling bends up to 60 inches), a unique 1,800-tonne large mandrel machine, forging, GTAW cladding, and CNC machining (via Mandelli).

The Group serves primarily the nuclear power, oil & gas (upstream/midstream/downstream), LNG, petrochemical, conventional power, and offshore/subsea end-markets, with over 90% of Tectubi Raccordi's sales exported to Europe, the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia), China, India, South Korea, and North and Sub-Saharan Africa. Its revenue model is B2B hardware sales under quote-based, multi-year enterprise contracts to EPC companies and major project developers, with significant capital intensity (€30M recently invested in nuclear-sector assets, €100M capacity expansion program) and a deep regulatory moat anchored by ISO 19443 nuclear certification, ASME U/U2/PRT, NORSOK M-650, API Q1/5LD, and Kitemark approvals. Named customers include CNPE, EDF, Framatome, Hinkley Point C, Saudi Aramco, and SIET SpA (in which Tectubi holds a shareholder stake). Allied has grown almost entirely through serial bolt-on acquisitions since 2003 and is led by founder/President Valter Alberici, named Knight of Labour by the Italian President in 2022.
