Our History and Key Milestones
Synecom’s growth is marked by consistent technological evolution and prestigious international partnerships
Company foundation.
Construction of our first SF₆ gas regeneration plant.
Awarded the first major contract for the ITER project (Padua site).
Development and implementation of the innovative SPIDER Drying System.
Awarded the ITER tender for SF₆ gas supply at the Cadarache site (France).
Expertise and Global Projects
We are a trusted partner for major international scientific institutions, including INFN, RFX, JADA, QST, and ITER. Our expertise spans across:
We have designed and installed SF₆ gas management systems for high-profile experiments such as the INFN LUNA (Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso) and Moby Dick (Legnaro).
Since 2015, Synecom has provided engineering, procurement, and installation services for the Neutral Beam Test Facility (NBTF), covering SF₆ gas management, vacuum systems, and high-voltage power supplies.
We play a critical role in the ITER project. Beyond gas supply, we are responsible for the design and installation of complex distribution and recovery systems, including the handling of over 70 tons of SF₆ and the development of cryogenic distribution lines.
Innovation and Research
At Synecom, we don’t just provide services; we innovate. Our patented F-Green system allows for real-time monitoring of SF₆ gas, ensuring operational efficiency and environmental safety.
We believe in investing in the future of science through strategic collaborations, including:
Sponsoring PhD research at UNIPD (University of Padua) on high-voltage gas-insulated components.
Developing NBI applications for the DTT project at the ENEA Research Center in Frascati.
Frequently Asked Questions
What You Need to Know
For specific requirements, contact our engineering team.
How long has Synecom been established in the Big Science sector, and what is your track record with mega-projects like ITER?
Founded in 2005, Synecom has spent over two decades evolving alongside the world’s most demanding scientific projects. Our partnership with the ITER project began over a decade ago in 2015 at the Padua site (NBTF). Based on our proven performance in managing complex distribution systems and high-voltage power supplies, our role expanded in 2024 when we were awarded the critical ITER tender for SF₆ gas supply at the Cadarache site in France.
Synecom’s engineering scope limited to specific types of systems, or do you develop custom, unprecedented solutions?
We do not work from a rigid product catalog; our true capability lies in engineering what has never been built before. Because Big Science projects demand bespoke, first-of-its-kind solutions, we are structured to handle any complex infrastructure or critical component from the ground up. Whether a project requires mastering ultra-high vacuum environments, cryogenic lines, massive-scale mechanical handling, or custom thermal engineering, we adapt. Our past milestones with ITER, INFN, and the NBTF are not boundaries of what we do they are proof that no matter how extreme or unique your operational parameters are, we have the engineering and manufacturing capacity to build it.
What proprietary technologies has Synecom introduced to the market to improve operational efficiency?
We treat innovation as a core capability. Key milestones include constructing our first specialized SF₆ gas regeneration plant back in 2014, and more recently, patenting our F-Green system. This proprietary technology allows research facilities to perform real-time monitoring of SF₆ gas, ensuring peak operational efficiency while guaranteeing the highest level of environmental safety and zero-leakage maintenance.
How does Synecom contribute to the broader scientific community and future R&D?
We actively invest in the future of applied physics and engineering through strategic academic and institutional collaborations. Synecom sponsors advanced PhD research at the University of Padua (UNIPD) focusing on high-voltage gas-insulated components. Additionally, we work on the frontier of fusion energy by developing Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) applications for the DTT project at the prestigious ENEA Research Center in Frascati.
