About us

The best fitting on the market, supplied in the shortest time

That was always the main aim of Mr Giulio Maestrini, founder of Maestrini s.r.l., and since 1964, the year of foundation, he has been taking every decision with this idea very clear in his mind.

Today the company is strongly characterised by its strong propensity to investments, uncompromising care to quality, the continual search of innovative solutions and, last but not least, great flexibility.

Our customers can find a product of high quality, always available in a short time and, for any particular requirement, an efficient team of designers that can get from the concept to the finished product in a time that you would hardly believe possible.

 

But, as Mr Maestrini always says

“It was our customers, with their continued preference, who allowed us to afford the right investments to continue growing and improving to remain up to their expectations!
Therefore they deserve our heartfelt thanks!”
