A great Italian and international company

A story that started in 1977

Our ovens have a history that started in 1977. The first ovens produced were the "Tradizionale" and "Master Vision" ovens followed by other products. In 2009, our team created a new product concept: the FornInox. The forefather of the range was the 5 Minuti oven. We can be proud of 250,000 operating ovens in the world in 35 years of business. Our strength lies in our patience and commitment to the design and creation of new solutions which increasingly meet the needs of living well in harmony.
