Pasta Armando La Mezza Manica

Pasta Armando is a premium Italian pasta brand produced by De Matteis Agroalimentare S.p.A. The brand is known for its high-quality durum wheat semolina pasta, traditionally bronze-cut (trafilata al bronzo) to give the surface a texture that holds sauces better. This specific product, 'La Mezza Manica', is part of their commitment to sustainable farming, highlighted by their 'Zero Residue' method which ensures no pesticides or glyphosate remain in the final product.

The pasta is produced in Italy, specifically in the Campania region (Avellino). De Matteis Agroalimentare operates an integrated supply chain called 'Armando's Pact', where they work directly with hundreds of Italian farmers to ensure the wheat meets strict quality and safety criteria. The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of the De Matteis family through their company, which has become a significant player in the global pasta market.
