Throughout its history, SLIDE has been able
to grow, innovate and stand out, offering complete
furnishing for outdoors and for illuminating large spaces,
residential and contract projects, but also small leading
products for the home.
With the generational change that began in 2015, Marco
Colonna Romano, supported by a young, passionate
team, transformed SLIDE into a designer brand for all
intents and purposes, expanding the offer and combining
the typical colourful pop products with an increasingly
wide-ranging, refined line able to satisfy the tastes of
architects and ideal for the hotel and contract sectors.
The resulting image is that of a young, innovative
company based on sound principles since its inception:
the high quality of Made in Italy and the continuous
pursuit of excellence in rotational moulding technology.
Playful shapes and colours are complemented by other
materials, new tactile textures and shades and nuances
that only SLIDE can create. Still deeply rooted in its
birthplace – in Buccinasco, on the outskirts of Milan –
where the offices and production hub are located, SLIDE
has made a name for itself and its products in more than
130 countries around the world.
