Protection and security for your homes since 1965<\/h2>\t\t\n\t\t\n\t

The Pellegrino <\/strong>family is a family of artisans with a long-standing tradition.
The modern history of the company began in Ravenna in 1965<\/strong> with the dream of a young founder, Domenico Pellegrino, and thanks to its professionalism and quality, the Pellegrino company quickly established solid roots, eventually becoming the current Rapid brand, an internationally successful brand that today boasts more than 60 years of experience gained in the production and installation of protective systems across various sectors.<\/p>

In Ravenna, it's a true institution!<\/h5>

The founder\u2019s professional philosophy has remained unchanged over time, passed down from father to son, now in its third generation and looking forward to future generations.<\/p>

Following repeated requests from a customer, in 1995 his son, Marco Pellegrino, undertook his first project to design and install a flood protection system\u2014partly to solve a personal problem. This first project was followed by many others, thanks in part to the challenges facing the Ravenna area\u2014such as land subsidence, flooding from the sea, and the municipal requirement to protect indoor spaces across much of the region. <\/p>

This led to a shift in direction: the design of a new barrier featuring a simple yet effective system and excellent performance.<\/p>

Hours and hours of work in the workshop and laboratory to obtain the first patent\u2014crowned by the certification of the sample tested at Istituto Giordano S.p.A.\u2014will be followed by many others, including those from T\u00dcV Italia srl.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Certified Quality<\/span><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Patented <\/span>Flood Barriers<\/h2>\t\t\n\t\t\n\t

There are many flood barriers on the market that lack certifications or come with only basic statements regarding their mechanical properties or how they were manufactured in the workshop; this is because they have not passed leak-tightness tests\u2014which involve containing water in a tank\u2014a safety test required for flood barriers.<\/strong><\/p>

Our ethical standards require us to provide high-quality products.<\/p>

We are the only manufacturer to have patented a prototype for lengths of up to 5 meters in a single flood barrier.<\/h5><\/div><\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
