The Company

Production and sale of CW614 brass fittings for gas and water pipes

G.F. was founded in 1968 by Mr. Furio Giovannini who took over an already existing brass fittings factory together with two partners. Mr Giovannini invented and took out the patent for an CW614 brass fitting, called UNIRAPID, for low-density polyethylene, pipes, PVC, Nylon, Moplen, etc. for municipal water system use. This fitting is engineered to withstand up to and over 16 bar working pressures. Afterwards, G.F. Company also took out the patent for a different fitting, named UNIGAS, specifically engineered for unified high-density polyethylene pipes of S.5 Class, for combustible gas distribution. Over the years the Company has been involved in the design, of two series of products respectively named UNIRAPID and UNIGAS. G.F. fittings due their success to their easy and quick assembly, excellent mechanical and hydraulic seal and materials, which perfectly comply with the national and CE standards and regulations. The Company addresses its economic activity to all the firms and public & private unions which supply water and gas in Italy as well as to all the distributors operating in the same field. With the aim of facing successfully the constant market development and the growing competition in pipe fittings field, the management has invested in a new, technologically advanced, production line. Over the course of few years G.F. have grown from an artisan business to a small industrial company. G.F. has seen many changes from their early beginnings. Differently from the past, when only pre-moulded pieces were machined, today the production is mainly performed by computerized numerical control lathes and part of fittings manufacture is made directly from bar. In this way some external workings and moulding waste have been eliminated, guaranteeing a more prompt fulfilment of the orders.
