The Automax company, maker of the Benevento brand of wood dash kits, dash trims, pillar posts, sunroof deflectors, side window deflectors, and external auto accesories was started in 1980 by two brothers. Benevento takes its name from the region of Italy where the Cioffi family comes from. Bene means good and vento means wind. It just so happens that their first product was the sunroof wind deflector, a practical answer to the turbulence and noise in vehicles with the now familiar sky view opening. The product was good enough to win the business of several major automakers which include General Motors, BMW and Saab among others. Automax eventually entered wood dash trim manufacturing and has advanced the industry with innovations and improvements in design and a range of materials ever since, providing the widest choice in the industry. Today Automax serves thousands of clients all over the world!
