Philosophy - Mission
We do not consider wood to be just some raw material:
rather, it is our way of expressing a lifestyle which is
in harmony with the environment where we live. When
making our products, we have always tried to show up
the difference between apparent quality (which everyone
knows something about) and true quality: true quality
is the inspiration for our output, and it is something
which only the test of time can show up. In line with this
philosophy of ours, each and every individual element
is carefully examined from an aesthetic and functional
point of view. We also make sure they meet our durability,
safety, and environmental impact standards. Indeed, since
1879 we at Emmemobili have been turning out items
which are absolutely unique. In our constant search for
perfection, we have turned to curved laminates, and this
sets us out from the hoi polloi. To be able to make top-
quality furniture – in terms of build tradition and up-to-
date design – was certainly an ambitious target, but this
is our commitment and day-to- day aim: items which will
improve the quality of life of anyone who buys them,
and which will give character and harmony to areas and
pleasure to those who live in them.
Techniques and
materials
In every individual manufacturing process, we can
guarantee working techniques of the highest quality.
Light, thin sheets of wood are coated with resins and
glues and laid carefully in dies which have been designed
according to the shape we wish to achieve. Then comes
the first stage of heating and pressing, so that the wood
takes on the shape we want. A computer- controlled
machine then works on these items, which are later
finished by hand. Finally, the various parts are assembled
and polished. There is no way that this can be spoken of as
a “production line”: these are all one-offs.
