Our Designers
Snaidero’s unique product is a result of the continued partnership with world-renowned artists, architects, and industrial designers, including Ferrari designer Pininfarina, international architect Massimo Iosa Ghini and renowned Italian designers Lucci and Orlandini.
The Snaidero Difference
Family owned and operated, Snaidero not only collaborates with some of the finest artists, architects and industrial designers in the world—but, they are also committed to bringing the consumer a technically superior product with great respect and dedication for the environment.
Snaidero’s mission and its attention to the clients’ needs have led the company to achieve a variety of records in this sector.
Green By Design
From its inception, Snaidero has been dedicated to environmental conservation, and has taken active measures to protect the dwindling natural resources around the world.
At the manufacturing level, Snaidero strives to control and recycle waste by using toxic free and environmentally friendly materials in both production and packaging. Due to this commitment to quality control and strict environmental procedures, Snaidero has been awarded certification from RINA, a certification body for management system and safety procedures; CISQ, an Italian certification body for quality systems; and the ICILA, the certification body for wood and furniture products.
Green Design Details In The Kitchen
Waste sorting has always been a fundamental design element at Snaidero. Sorting receptacles for glass, paper, plastics, aluminum and organic waste are integrated into the design of each kitchen, encouraging consumers to manage waste properly and effectively.
Certifications
In 1995 Snaidero was the first kitchen manufacturer to obtain ISO 9001 certification for its Company Quality Control System. A few years later Snaidero was again the first to be granted the even more exacting VISION 2000 certification, which requires that the company must not only satisfy customer’s needs but also be able to foresee them, in a effort towards constant improvement.
The last stage of this journey was completed on December 21, 2003 when the international environmental certification UNI EN ISO 14001 was obtained. Being granted this certification does not only signify that Snaidero’s organizational and manufacturing system respects the strict regulations issued by ISO (International Standardization Organization), but also sanctions the company’s ability to cope with unexpected events and emergencies which could cause harmful consequences for the environment. By adopting this model the company endorses the guiding principle of relentless improvement, in terms of its environmental efficiency as well: in other words it officially commits itself not just to maintaining the results achieved but to constantly setting new goals for itself.
Our History
Snaidero is recognized as a multinational organization that is known around the world for its specialized kitchen designs and collaborations with noted architects and product designers. Snaidero is present in more than 50 countries, positioning itself in the high-end bracket of a market that appreciates luxury and Italian design. The prestige obtained by Snaidero’s leading models in the international arena has resulted in a 73 percent increase in export sales during the last five years.
The company’s rapid growth was, and still is today, dependent on a commitment to advanced technologies, production techniques, dedicated customer service and innovative products. Snaidero was the first Italian company to embrace the concept of integrated kitchen design, which brought worldwide recognition and acclaim to the company. The “Spaziovivo” and “Cruscotto,” early kitchen designs that date back to 1960, were inducted into the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
In the late 1970s, Snaidero made a strategic change in manufacturing to concentrate on the concept of a personalized kitchen environment for a new and more demanding consumer. This idea gave birth to the methodology of designing and manufacturing kitchens tailored to the specific needs of the client, using advanced manufacturing techniques and increasingly sophisticated materials.
