Pseudo-BL algebras are noncommutative generalizations of BL-algebras and they include pseudo-MV algebras, a class of structures that are categorically equivalent to l-groups with strong unit. In this paper we characterize directly indecomposable pseudo-BL algebras and we define and study different classes of these structures: local, good, perfect, peculiar, and (strongly) bipartite pseudo-BL algebras.
