1956-2008. Fifty years on, Metalmobil is still a cornerstone in the industry for indoor and outdoor furnishings for communal areas. Its first invention - covered by patent even then – was the 001 armchair in steel and woven wire, then named Filo art. 001 -, which allowed the company to gain an immediate foothold in the hospitality market, conquering the Romagna Riviera and then expanding all over the Italian coastal resorts and finally entering the entire European territory. This chair in woven wire and steel set a trend worldwide and it still remains one of the company’s leading pieces today, with its wire that continues to be rigourously hand-woven by expert workers.
“Historic” premises furnished with Metalmobil wire collections include the Caffè Quadri in St. Mark’s Square, Venice, the Café de Paris and the Caffè Strega in Via Veneto, Rome, and also in Rome, Il Brutto Anatroccolo in Viale Parioli…..
But Metalmobil is much more. It’s also a comprehensive catalogue with strong and hardwearing products in a wide range of finishes and the possibility to customise colours, fabrics and wood tints. … To answer effectively to the growing desire for customised premises.
Every Metalmobil product is subjected to tests and inspections in the company’s laboratories to guarantee hardwearing durability and ensure the highest quality standards. The CATAS, of which the company is a member, certifies strength and robustness to guarantee heavy-duty use.
Filo art. 001 teaches well.
