Since 1975, we have been constantly evolving – from bus manufacturing to vehicle air conditioning systems, hydrogen generators, and nanotechnology.
Tropical Tech is the Greek technological signature with a global impact.
Innovation with History
Tropical Tech is a pioneering Greek technology company with a legacy spanning nearly five decades. Our story begins in 1975, with the founding of ALFA in Aspropyrgos, specializing in the construction of bus bodies in collaboration with leading brands such as Mercedes, Volvo, Scania, Neoplan, and MAN.
In 2000, the company completed its chapter in bus manufacturing and made a strategic shift: it relocated to Peristeri, was renamed Tropical, and focused on the design and installation of professional air conditioning systems for buses, minibuses, and refrigerated transport vehicles.
Today, as Tropical Tech, the company has evolved into a multifaceted technology hub, integrating:
-
Vehicle air conditioning systems
-
Custom industrial solutions and special constructions
-
Hydrogen technologies (hydrogen generator manufacturing and hydrogen-powered applications)
-
Renewable energy systems
-
Nanotechnology for advanced energy and industrial applications
International recognition soon followed: the company has been awarded by Bill Gates, while our founder, George Lagios, was named Scientist of the Year in 2008 and is widely known as the "Greek father of hydrogen."
With headquarters now in Peristeri, Athens, Tropical Tech continues to forge ahead—combining expertise, innovation, and sustainable solutions for the future of energy and industrial technology.
Tropical was awarded for its innovative and eco-friendly products with honorary recognition from Microsoft President Bill Gates and the President of BSE during an event organized by Microsoft and BSE at the Concert Hall on the theme "Innovation and Entrepreneurship in the Modern World" where and important personalities from the political and business world of our country attended.
