Lanfranchi: history
and secrets of the zip
Company handbook presented at Milano Unica 39
At the 39 th edition of Milano Unica, Lanfranchi not only presented its Autumn/Winter 2025.26 collection but also took the opportunity to unveil its company handbook, which sets out a comprehensive guide to Lanfranchi. The book (a 119-page ‘journey’) is mainly designed for customers and stakeholders who have not yet had the chance to visit the company in person and who wish to find out more about its products, but it also doubles as a handy souvenir for those who have visited. Its main objective is two-fold. On the one hand, it offers a complete overview of the company and its production processes, from the company’s inception to the present day, illustrating the journey it has been on to become a benchmark in the industry.
On the other hand, it aims to bridge the knowledge gap about this crucially important product, relaying its origins, uses over time and the current state of the art. Lanfranchi is confident this handbook will help people better understand the passion and commitment that have driven the company through the generations. Every page bears witness to the hard work, dedication and ongoing desire to innovate, whilst staying true to the company’s founding principles. A further point of pride is the partnership with Bignami publisher on this project: Lanfranchi hopes that this little book will find a place on desks for years to come, just like the handbooks that were used at school. Indeed, the hope is that it will become a valuable reference and a pleasant memory, even of happy school days.
