Company History.

The origin of the company dates back to 1966 when three friends working professionals in the State Gas Company decided to form a small company called ALARA, to manufacture quality control equipment for the oil and gas industry that could compete with products imported from various sources. Then each member took different paths in life while preserving their friendship.

The name ALARA was adopted since days of the original venture, but the effort was not in vain, and on 1 April, 1995 with the experience amassed, and in the face of the privatization of state enterprises, it was decided to continue the old project with renewed will, counting with little capital but clear objectives in mind, also transforming the partnership into a corporation, setting up a laboratory of Argentine capital, and incorporating state-of-the-art technologies, which positions us as one of the reference and consultation enterprise for the national regulatory bodies, government agencies, and private oil and gas corporations in the energy industry.

During this period, our company developed businesses with Latin American countries like Chile, Uruguay, Bolivia and Peru (where it was set up and was launched a quality control laboratory specializing in natural gas and its derivatives). In recent years, a team of highly specialized professionals in energy was created and incorporated the guidelines and standards of quality management, optimizing our services to acquire competitive edge and reliability in the domestic market as well as internationally.

In January 2008, the company is renamed as ALARA Lab SA with a more environmental commitment, conscious of the effects of climate change caused by the emissions and accumulation of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere, has sparked a new global thinking and as a result, Argentina is facing a great opportunity to develop renewable energy sources projects, energy efficiency and environmental care, among others. We put all our passion to be part of the value chain to protect the environmental balance for future generations.
