Different visions which embrace the same corporate philosophy that is continually updated through fundamental values of harmony, expressive,elegance, clean design and originality. Made in Italy, quality and production capacity of excellence are some of the main characteristics that have made Desalto famous over time and of Made in Italy Desalto perfectly embodies some central values. A family of entrepreneurs and a territory representing, in the design view, an unrepeatable system keeping product quality primary. Each design is the result of our country's handcrafted creativity, particularly the unique expression of the Brianza area, with an internal and external production chain controlled at every stage to ensure maximum preservation of value over time.
