The Ferrara plant began operations in 1941, with the establishment of a synthetic rubber production facility by the Società Anonima Italiana Gomma Sintetica. In 1950, the plant was acquired by Montecatini (merged into Edison in 1966), which built there the first Italian petrochemical hub, developing a cracking unit and launching a cycle of derivatives such as polyethylene, polystyrene, ethylene oxide, polypropylene and elastomers. In the 1980s, many activities were stopped, while others were transferred: the polyethylene business branch passed from Montedison to Anic (1982), the polypropylene supply chain to Himont - joint venture of Montedison and Hercules (1983) - while the production of ammonia, urea and fertilisers to the Norsk Hydro group. In 1991, following the failed Enimont operation, the hub passes to Enichem (since 2003 Syndial and today Eni Rewind).
