There is practically no continent that does not have traces of stone products from  Basaltina Srl, a company from Bagnoregio (central Italy) that will turn 100 in 2025.
  
  The Sole 24 Ore also talked about it in an interview with CEO Gianluca Pellegrino: «We started by supplying basalt manhole covers to Rome. If you walk around the city you can still find some of them», says Gianluca Pellegrino, CEO of a company that, starting from a niche sector of Made in Italy, has reached a turnover of 10 million euros a year with 59 direct employees. «The current owners, the Tecchi family, have been at the center of the history of Basaltina Srl since 1925. Originally from Bagnoregio, Giuseppe Tecchi and his four sons have transformed the extraction and processing of Basaltina stone into a true art, preserving the artisan techniques and improving them over time through technological innovations».
  
  Pellegrino continues: «The company was founded on October 8, 1925 in Bagnoregio by Giuseppe Tecchi Cristofori Celiani, who on family land, and by acquiring the small neighboring quarries, created the current Basaltina Srl. The headquarters are in Rome, the quarry is in Bagnoregio with an adjoining sawmill and processing factory. We then have a processing laboratory in Ascoli Piceno and a direct distribution channel in Carrara». In 2025 the company will turn 100: «We are defining the details of the celebration but in the meantime we have obtained a very important recognition. The philatelic program for 2025 includes the issue of only four ordinary stamps belonging to the thematic series “The Excellence of the production system and Made in Italy” dedicated to companies on the centenary of the foundation. One of these is dedicated to Basaltina Srl». The outlook for the future remains positive. In 2024, Pellegrino emphasizes, «the exposure to orders and projects related to luxury fashion, which have suffered a slowdown due to the global economic situation, has generated a decline in turnover, but the first months of 2025 give us hope for a new long-term growth. Of course, we are a little worried about the unknown of possible US duties». The projects include the consolidation of the actions implemented on energy saving and sustainability. «We have a photovoltaic system in the pipeline by the end of the year and we are imagining, in the long term, the transformation of the quarry area into an extraction park, with the idea of ​​sharing a small theater and a museum area with the community. We have always been careful not to waste the territory's resources and to enhance its beauty. We are already recovering the water that Basaltina Srl uses for its production processes», concludes the CEO.
