OUR HISTORY
Innovation from beyond 100 Years
THE STAGES OF OUR COMPANY
The path that led to the birth of FILOALFA® filaments is rich in craftsmanship and skill in the processing of plastic materials.
In the center of Milan the Ciceri Egidio company is born, an artistic laboratory for the creation of commemorative medals.
From a small workshop Ciceri Egidio is transformed into a large factory in which snuffboxes and small metal parts are made.
The artisan skills continue alongside industrial development: the mirrors combine manual processes with cutting-edge techniques.
Ciceri de Mondel installs a silvering plant in the new shed where he makes mirrors from glass sheets at home.
Here comes the design! Ciceri de Mondel does not remain indifferent to fashions and gives way to a production of mirrors in full 70s style.
Installation of the first extrusion line for the realization of thermoformed frames. Soon the company will dedicate 100% to the extrusion of plastic materials.
From the knowledge acquired in the processing of plastic materials born FILOALFA® , the filament business unit for 3D printing.
Since August 2022, Ciceri de Mondel is officially part of the MAIP Group, with consequent integration of FILOALFA® in the MAIP COMPOUNDING S.R.L. business unit.
