Thanks to the enterprise of Mr. Fumagalli Giancarlo, in 1973 an individual company called "La Bottega dei Maestri Forgiatori" was born in Varese (north of Italy) specialising itself in the artistic handwork of wrought iron indoor lightings. After five years of activity the company started to employ some workers and to open itself to foreign markets, in particular to the Japanese one.

An intuition of Mr. Fumagalli lead the company to an evolution, creating an innovative outdoor lightings production system, consisting of a galvanized steel tube covered by resin material. After some years of experimentation and the setting-up of adeguate machineries, the product started to be appreciated all over the world.

Fumagalli family decides to turn the individual company into a limited company, going on with the manufacturing of "composite material" outdoor lighting fixtures. The articles range increased thanks to the creation of many new models and the production capacity was multiplied by the use of computerized machineries. The recent settlement in the new company seat had definitively made Fumagalli S.r.l a worldwide leading company in the manufacturing of resin material outdoor lightings.
