Lofrans inaugurates its new facility in Cambiago, Milan, enhancing its production capacity as the company marks sixty years of operation.
Lofrans takes a major step forward with the inauguration of its new owned state- of-the-art facilities in Cambiago, Milan. This strategic move marks a new era for the company, enhancing production capabilities and innovation, while coinciding with six decades of presence in the yachting industry.
Founded in Monza in 1966, Lofrans has earned a global reputation for reliability, quality and performance in windlasses and anchor management solutions. Since joining the LALIZAS Force in 2012, the brand has strengthened its operations and expanded its international presence, all while remaining true to its tradition of innovation.
The relocation of Lofrans manufacturing from Monza to Cambiago significantly boosts efficiency, technological advancement and operational excellence, reflecting the company’s vision for the future, while the new facilities – with more space and an optimized production process – also significantly increase Lofrans daily capacity. “This is one of the most significant change in Lofrans’ 60-year history”, said George Papoutsis, Lofrans & MAX POWER – Technical Manager. “Our new facilities embody the renewal and ambition of the brand, ready to inspire both partners and enthusiasts alike” he added.
“When we acquired the company in 2012, we made a clear commitment: to respect the Lofrans name, its heritage, its people, and its long-standing partners. That commitment was not only to preserve the past, but to build upon it”, said CEO Stavros Lalizas. “Over the years, we have not only honoured the company’s legacy – we have strengthened it, evolved it, and positioned it for the future. I still remember admiring the iconic Lofrans’ anchor that the Rivolta family used to have in the factory yard. Today, that same anchor has found its rightful place in our new Cambiago facilities – a symbol that unites our past with a promising future”. As Lofrans celebrates six decades of achievement, the brand continues to deliver world- class products, combining Italian engineering heritage with modern expertise to lead the global marine industry into the years ahead.
