FOUR REALITIES IN ONE DIRECTION

Samo Industries has brought together production sites, technology, know-how, business culture, materials and values, with the vision of becoming a leader in the bathroom furnishings sector, satisfying customers, stakeholders and the human resources that work there.

THE HISTORY

One group, many histories

The history of Samo Industries has been the interweaving of many stories. On the one hand the Venturato family, on the other hand that of Inda and the world of bathrooms. It all began thanks to the entrepreneurial spirit, passion and farsightedness of Orvile Venturato, who successfully understood, above all, the needs of the market. At a time when bathrooms were not even present in all homes, he decided to invest in this sector, ahead of the times. And so he founded Samo.

THE HISTORY

A success story

Vision and continuous investment have allowed Samo to accomplish one goal after another, always managing to predict the needs of the market, leading to a big advantage over the competition. The merger with Inda, which specialises in total living bathrooms, has enabled the Group to become a European leader in the bathroom furnishings sector. Today Samo Industries, still led by the Venturato family, continues to invest and grow, continuing in a single direction: creating unique bathroom experiences.
