Circa 1906: Italian-born Giovanni Ferronato began his entrepreneurial journey in the Swiss city of Lugano by establishing a factory dedicated to manufacturing molded products.

In 1952, the family’s second-generation and true visionary, Natale Ferronato assumed responsibilities and reshaped the business by introducing new technologies. Towards the end of the 1970s, Maryse Ferronato, his wife, stepped in to steer the company for the next decade.

The family’s third generation, Sandro Ferronato, who serves as the current group chairman, took over from the previous generation in 1980. Under his leadership, the company has taken unprecedented strides towards global success with 21 branches across 15 countries.

In 1992, Ferronato KGS Group initiated its global expansion with a state-of-the-art facility in Elburg, the Netherlands, specializing in flexible diamond abrasives.

This marked the beginning of several international expansions, paving the way for establishing a significant global presence.

The Ferronato KGS Group, known for its flexible diamond abrasives, introduced MetaFab® - a metalized fabric that is nothing short of a technological marvel. The innovation soon turned into a symbol of trust and resilience, boasting applications across various industries and 100+ countries today.

Rooted in the same family values, and driven by its parent company, Ferronato was born - the world’s first luxury label dedicated to preserving privacy and well-being.

With this new venture, the company expanded its horizons, bringing its know-how directly to consumers. Building upon its legacy and expertise, Ferronato introduces a new line of products meticulously crafted in Italy, integrating the group's proprietary fabric to enhance privacy and well-being.

Alessia Ferronato, together with her father Sandro Ferronato, noted a need in the market for a brand that safeguarded the user’s digital footprint and well-being, thus helping them navigate a hyper-connected world with confidence.

An entrepreneur at heart, committed to the cause of enhanced privacy and well-being, and with relentless dedication that matches her passion; Alessia serves as the current CEO of Ferronato.

Ferronato captures collective imaginations at Expo 2020 as the first luxury brand centered around privacy & well-being.

MetaFab® is introduced to the consumer world for the first time.

Ferronato quickly makes its presence felt across several fashion events such as New York Fashion Week, Arab Fashion Week, and Middle East Fashion Week.
