60 years of
CONTI is turning 60 years old this year. We were born in
1956 in Monaco. The story of CONTI started exactly in 1951 in Paris
then the real production in 1956 in Monaco.
Why Monaco : At that period The prince “Rainier” wanted
to develop the industry of Monaco in building dedicated industrial
district.Secondly 160 years ago Nice area was still under Italian con-
trol with a Faema factory nearby. Then when they moved back to
Milano , they left well trained people that came to CONTI ! We still
have 50% French and 50% Italians inside the company that make us
different.
Today the Conti team has launched a “Limited Edition” ma-
chine to celebrate its anniversary. The aim is to show the knowhow
we developed in the last 60 years. We will produce 60 units of this
limited edition and no more … The first one will be offered to the
Price “Albert of Monaco”. The 60 will remain at the CONTI head
th
office. Conti was born in 1956 with a manual piston machine that
made us famous and we remain one of the leader of that technology.
In 2016 we produce a multi boiler machine “Monte Carlo” with an
extremely precise temperature control.
