The collaboration between Sadas Group and Sei Sistemi started in 2016, and developed into the decision to merge and create Alsiter, a new one-stop reference player in the Lucca area, in Tuscany, for industrial process automation in the pulp & paper industry, while the Imola site in Emilia-Romagna will focus on metallurgy, rubber/plastic and renewable energy.

Sadas was established in 2005 by two founding members. The mission of the company was to offer expertise and know-how to customers in the tissue business. Soon, Sadas grew to become a major player in the electrification and automation of paper mills for the tissue and pulp & paper industries. Over the years, the company has expanded its target, addressing several sectors including food & beverage, energy, chemicals and manufacturing.

Today, the company can build automation systems for different markets, including hot and cold metalworking, pulp and paper, plastic and rubber, engine test benches, research centers, renewable sources, metal wire drawing and manufacturing.
