Traditional workshops: The history

An intuitive business idea of the three brothers, Giuseppe, Bruno and Carlo, who started building ovens in the great tradition of Italian craftsmanship.

Over 70 years

of professionalism

Traditional workshops is not just a simple slogan here in Fontana Forni. It is a belief that we have carried forward for over seventy years, forged from experimentation, passion for our work and respect for the world around us.

The company’s origins

Since 1946

Fontana was founded back in 1946 when Italy was entering a new era, filled with challenges and opportunities, where individual ingenuity, willpower and passion made it possible for people to achieve extraordinary accomplishments.

And this is where the Fontana company started, in the heart of Italy’s Marche region, in the hard-working Cesano valley, a proud land with a passion for tradition.

Passion for our work

A testimony to creativity and Italian tradition

Three generations of the Fontana family now steer the company, maintaining the commitment and original concept of its founders, namely to produce reliable ovens, searching for innovative solutions through the use of reliable, top-class materials.
More than just a simple company, a family that has evolved through its work, a testimony to creativity and Italian tradition.

Tradition in step with innovation

Fontana workshops are equipped with the latest technology for laser cutting, bending and digital machining which allows the company to oversee the entire production line from start to finish and guarantee a truly “Made in Italy” product, or better still, a real “100% Made in Fontana” product!
The production site in San Lorenzo in Campo is an authentic hub of traditional artisans where genuine craftsmanship is combined with cutting-edge technology.

The skill of our artisans has made the name Fontana famous, achieving acclaim around the world, as well as representing a true school for industrial expertise which has trained generations of professional steelworkers.

The two production units, situated in the heart of the unspoilt Marche region, consists of 5,500 square metres under cover, producing thousands of meticulously crafted stoves and ovens every year.
