From its creation in 1963 the company was able to apply ancient know-how made up of rules passed on from generation to generation, with attention to detail, to the finish and the materials. The Zani family today continues to run the business, developing projects and manufacturing products that blend traditional craftsmanship with a unique and innovative industrial vision.Today still all the processes that contribute to the production of steel pots, pans, saucepans, frying pans take place at the Lumezzane plant so as to confirm the latter’s own mission to produce beautiful and high-quality objects. The design contributions have enabled the company to transcend fashion trends, offering an original and diversified series of objects that will make up our “domestic landscape”.
