Pastificio Gaetano Faella is a renowned Italian pasta factory located in Gragnano, a small town near Naples, famously known as the "Pasta Capital." Established in 1907, this family-run company has been producing high-quality "Pasta di Gragnano IGP" (Protected Geographical Indication) for three generations, using 100% Italian durum wheat semolina and pure water from the Lattari Mountains.
The production process at Pastificio Faella combines traditional methods with modern technology. The pasta is shaped using bronze dies, which give it a rough texture, ideal for absorbing sauces. After shaping, the pasta is dried at low temperatures over an extended period, preserving its nutritional properties and authentic flavor.
