Rimadesio, the Italian leading company specialized in high-tech furniture design, continues its unstoppable growth.
After having closed 2018 with record numbers (revenues exceeded 61.5 million euros and net profit increased by 52% compared to the previous year), the company led by Davide and Luigi Malberti ended the first quarter 2019 with 10% increase in turnover compared to the same period last year.
Another success achieved thanks to the continual growth of the domestic market, increased by 6% in the last four months and the extraordinary development of the international one, with exports increased by 14%. The excellent Q1 results represent a further strengthening of Rimadesio’s competitive position.
Innovation in production processes is a fundamental asset of Rimadesio development strategy. The company, by joining the 4.0 Factory project, continues in 2019 its investment plan – valued at more than 3 million euros – in new highly computerized systems connected to the corporate network. The renewal of the aluminum processing plants has been completed in April, which will be followed soon by the start-up of a second water-based painting line: a cutting-edge technology that uses just Ecolorsystem water soluble products, with a low environmental impact processing cycle.
The new 5-axis machining center for glass has been inaugurated in May. The second automatic warehouse for the storage and computerized management of furniture will begin operating in September, with a just-in-time packaging system (made of 100% recycled materials).
The new Rimadesio collection, presented as a world premiere at Salone del Mobile, includes a set of coordinated solutions ranging from domestic to contract sector, from commercial spaces to offices. It is the case of Spazio wall-partition system or Modulor wall-paneling program that can be declined into endless compositional possibilities (it will officially go into production from January 2020). The range of materials and finishes has also been enriched: in addition to glass and aluminum – distinctive elements of the Rimadesio offer – it is now available a new porcelain gres, the new Crystal Brown marble, the Sahara walnut wood with a wavy effect and an exclusive synthetic leather in four finishes (castoro, argilla, nube and rubens), made in Italy and animal component-free.
Rimadesio international distribution share has reached 62%. The growing result is supported by the increasingly strategic role of monobrand stores: exclusive shops that perfectly embody the technical and stylistic qualities of the company.
In order to further consolidate its position in global market, the company is going to inaugurate within 2019 new monobrand stores in Miami and Denver (USA), Moscow (Russia), Valencia, Vigo, Hamburg and Nice (Europe), Sydney (Australia), Seoul (South Korea) and Bangalore (India).
