A story which began in 1953. A name that reveals the origins of the brand, the mass production of technologically sophisticated interior design objects. In over sixty years, Tecno has chosen the historical buildings of the Caselli in the Porta Garibaldi former excise buildings in Milan - in the heart of the city - as its headquarters, and for its offices around the globe it has picked the major cultural and business hubs in the most important capitals: in Paris, London, Frankfurt, Warsaw, Tunis, New York, Tokyo, Seoul, Sydney, setting up its Labs there, which have become a place for research and comparison where architects, developers and contractors can meet and share a variety of multi-disciplinary skills.
Tecno has built up a collection of “original furniture, combining the independence and elegance of their design with industrial production principles”, all according to the design ethos of Osvaldo Borsani, its founder. Its products are contemporary evergreens, which have made design history: the 47 industrial patents and 5 Compassi d’Oro awards (among the many other accolades) demonstrate the brand’s special way of imagining and building. But that’s not all, the brand has equipped these products with intelligence - being the first company to introduce the Internet of Things into offices – so they can connect to one another, with the space around them or with the users, confirming that ability to capture and anticipate changes while retaining a people-centric attitude throughout. With completed projects in 45 different countries, relations with the largest industrial and banking groups, prestigious public and institutional bodies, partnerships/respectful relations with major architects and designers are proof of Tecno’s expertise, understood as outstanding savoir-faire, i.e.
designing well and producing well, while keeping its promise of quality, durability and impeccable technique and promoting innovative contents together with excellent values.
The leadership of Giuliano Mosconi - Tecno Spa’s Chairman and CEO since 2010 - led in 2015 to the purchase the Ottagono magazine brand and archive and in 2017 to the acquisition of Zanotta, launching a shared project for the two brands with consequent boosting of synergy and commercial strategy at an international level. Again in 2017, the Tecno group expanded, with the birth of IO.T Solutions, a company dedicated to developing high-tech solutions and software connected to the smart building sector and to the digitisation of settings.
