| After the fire at the
Bauli warehouse. Alfa professionals tried out their
ability, tested on other occasions, to work as a team
on a large-scale accident.
Bauli is a seasonal confectionery industry that produces
goods sold as soon as they are made. The event took place
at the beginning of the winter season, a time of top

and the difficulties that arose from the many-sided intervention.
October 1996. A fire breaks out in a warehouse containing
finished goods: an industrial shed in reinforced concrete
that is more than 10 meters high and with a surface
of approximately 20,000 square meters. The shed is
completely destroyed and the fire spreads to the raw
materials deposit and to the packaging shed, depriving
the company of almost all the available space. The
timing is difficult, also due to Bauli’s urgent

sales campaign.
Alfa’s experts meet and very rapidly define
a plan in order to share the tasks and activities that
must be carried out simultaneously.
