Family
The story of a family, since 1934.
Angelo and Giuseppina Molteni
founded an artisan workshop that
by the second half of the 1950s had
already inaugurated the successful
season of industrial design.
The Molteni Group still 100%
family owned.
Pavilion
The new hospitality facility
designed by Vincent Van Duysen.
A major expansion of about
1,400 square metres has
reconfigured the geography
of Molteni&C’s headquarters, an
emblem of the DNA and values of
the company and a further
milestone in the Group’s growth
and internationalization strategy.
Heritage
A forward-looking collection,
an artistic and cultural heritage,
signed by great masters as Gio
Ponti, Werner Blaser, Yasuhiko
Itoh, Ignazio Gardella, Afra and
Tobia Scarpa.
Architecture
An intense collaboration with
the most prestigious international
designers and architectural firms,
including the 6 Pritzkers –
Herzog & de Meuron, Aldo Rossi,
Jean Nouvel, Alvaro Siza, Renzo
Piano and Norman Foster – who
have chosen the Molteni Group to
carry out their most daring projects.
Global
A widespread network in over 100
countries worldwide, with more
than 700 points of sales and 84
Molteni&C Flagship Stores.
Sustainability
Sustainable design and production
become a prime objective that is
deeply rooted in the Company’s
strategy with a great emphasis on the
concepts of quality and durability
as a contribution to environmental
sustainability.
Museum
The Molteni Museum was inaugurated
in 2015 to celebrate the Molteni
Group's 80th anniversary. The aim
was to stage the company’s story, its
identity and its core values, by telling
extraordinary stories of the men and
women who have invented, created
and built objects, work and social
relationships. In 2021 the museum was
moved to the Glass Cube space located
in the Molteni Compound gardens, and
was totally revamped by Ron Gilad.
Molteni is the leading independent
industrial group in the high-end
furniture design field with a 100%
Italian-made production. As well
as the collaboration with the
most prestigious international
architectural firms and designers,
the Group adheres to a constant
investment in research and
technological innovation, to give its
products an intrinsic quality that
lasts over time. The Molteni Group
includes three brands, each one
a leader in its segment: Molteni&C
(residential furnishings and
Dada Engineered kitchens),
UniFor (workplace solutions),
Citterio (partition walls and
office furniture).
UniFor
The commitment to architecture
and manufacturing know-how are
the founding principles of UniFor.
Since 1969, the profound
collaborative relationships that
have accompanied every stage
of the design and production
process, facilitated by constant
dialogue, have resulted in series
products and custom furnishings
capable of meeting the ever-changing
needs of contemporary office
environments. UniFor develops
furnishing systems that aim to
interpret, through simple solutions,
the complexity of the workplace.
