The story of Mazzei Injector Company began in the 1970s when Angelo Mazzei, witnessing the challenges farmers faced in safely and efficiently injecting fertilizer into their irrigation water, crafted a unique solution in his home workshop. This invention, a venturi injector optimized for the job, earned its first of many patents in 1978, the same year he and his wife Mary founded the company. From the outset, Angelo focused on building a team of dedicated professionals, stressing innovation, quality, and customer service—a team-focused philosophy that has guided the company's success to this day.

    While the business grew as farmers learned of the injector's benefits, Angelo recognized the need to appeal to a wider, less cyclical market. In 1983, the injector was modified and new models were introduced for injecting ozone into spas, a move that coincided perfectly with ozone's introduction as a disinfectant and allowed Mazzei to capture this new market. Angelo then turned his sights on a personal problem: the odor from a nearby wastewater lagoon. His team developed a process using a Mazzei® injector to aerate the lagoon, which within weeks dramatically reduced odors and improved water quality, opening yet another new application for their technology. This growing expertise in aeration was then applied back to agriculture with the development of AirJection® Irrigation, a system that uses injectors to draw air into irrigation water, aerating the crop's root zone through drip systems to increase yields and improve soil health.

    Further innovations, such as the patented Mass Transfer Multiplier™ (MTM) nozzles that enhance gas transfer and the patented Pipeline Flash Reactor™ (PFR) that creates a compact, in-line mixing zone, have revolutionized mixing and contacting in water treatment. This is especially important for the effective use of ozone, a highly effective sanitizer that can be difficult to dissolve and mix thoroughly in water. The company's versatile injectors are also popular among winemakers for aerating grape juice during fermentation.

    Today, Mazzei Injector Company has come a long way from its garage workshop origins but has never lost its focus on innovative design and quality craftsmanship. Angelo Mazzei, a hands-on inventor and a strong supporter of cutting-edge science, continues to guide a team of in-house engineers, scientists, and specialists. The company's Research & Development Department utilizes advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling tools to analyze product performance, assess complex systems, and optimize equipment placement. Building on a foundation of over 20 patents and a deeply ingrained culture of innovation, the Mazzei team is focused on the future, developing and applying science-based technologies to make more efficient use of the world's precious water resources for their California neighbors and for people all over the world.
