CSA S.r.l was founded in 1987 in Italy by transforming the former trading company dealing with pipes and valves for water networks, into a manufacturing company, starting with the research and development of pillar fire hydrants. Since then, many other products have been added to the manufacturing range.
The history of the company is characterised by years of technical and commercial research, which have enabled CSA to offer a complete range of valves designed for controlling, regulating and protecting the pipelines under pressure in both waterworks and sewage lines as well as fire hydrants.The main product range includes air valves (for water, sewage, sea water and industrial fluids) with anti-shock and surge protection features, automatic control valves (for pressure reducing and sustaining, flow and altitude controls), direct acting control valves, float valves, solenoid control valves and anti-surge tanks.
Many industrial patents and innovative technical solutions, together with modern and attractive style of design, have made it possible to differentiate their products from those offered by competitors and have allowed CSA to become a point of reference in their manufacturing sector. Flexibility and reliability have been the key points of the rapid growth of CSA over the last few years. CSA is perfectly aware that they are managing the world’s most precious resource and, motivated by this responsibility and the commitment towards the customers, CSA has dedicated themselves to constantly improving their products, placing them at the highest levels of quality.
Quality
In the manufacturing business today, quality is the fundamental requirement for achieving and maintaining a growing market share. For this reason, CSA has always aimed at developing a synergy between the various sectors of the company and thus ensuring:
-quick and precise answers
-evaluation of data received and immediate response
-rigorous control of incoming and outgoing products
Since 1998, CSA is certified according to regulation ISO 9001 by Rina (Italian Naval Registry)
During the research and realisation of new products, CSA has always focused their efforts on:
- listening to the customer needs and finding the best solution at the design and operational phases
- guiding the R&D department to develop ranges of modern, reliable and complementary products
- adopting production techniques that, even while complying with the severest quality standards, would reduce delivery times
- guaranteeing complete technical support to customers and prompt after-sales assistance
This philosophy characterizes CSA not only as a valve manufacturer but also as a reliable partner whom you can always depend on for consulting and obtaining solutions. The production cycle, aimed at the constant improvement of products and complete customer satisfaction, ensures predetermined margins of tolerance by establishing production standards, which guarantee that the semi-finished products reach the next production stage with the required specifications.
All the valves are made of ductile cast iron GJS 450-10 or 500-7 in absolute compliance with European standards, and are suitable for PN 10-40 bar. The manufacturing process is carried out exclusively by means of numerically controlled lathes, mills, and horizontal machining units. Subsequent step-by-step controls are based on strict quality procedures.
