ALPES INOX
Alpes-Inox has been around for 70 years, which means that the market, i.e. two generations of people, have appreciated and continue to appreciate the value of its products. This value is the result of the passion and design abilities of Nico Moretto, entrepreneur, designer and founder of the company, which today is headed by his sons Aldo and Bruno. Abilities that have already been recognized by the public and, finally, by the critics who, through the Association of Italian Designers (ADI), awarded the "Compasso d'Oro", the most important award in the industry, to the cooktop with hinged lid and gave a "special mention" to the electronic suction system. Alpes-Inox products are recognizable at first sight because their design transcends fashion. The design has evolved over the years, but has never changed its course in pursuit of ephemeral commercial motives. The "fashion" favored by Alpes-Inox is a fashion inspired by functionality and safety. This is emphasized by attention to detail and rounded shapes that mean ease of use and cleaning. "The only serious development of the aesthetic issue is in the direction of ethics; I mean ergonomics, safety for adults and children, energy saving, respect for the environment. We are going logically, constantly improving what has already proven to be effective. Let's not forget that a kitchen is a durable product that is replaced once or twice in a lifetime. We don't want to get into a frenzy." Words that start on the surface and descend to the deeper aspects of design.
