Our history

A long way of passion, research and quality

“Getting into a room is like opening a world. A place we are in, for a long or just for a short time, and which welcomes us. If that room is a discovery and not a limit, well, that place really includes.”

THE SPACES: OUR VISION

For 125 years, always relevant

Founded in Omegna in 1898, the “Ditta Cesare Oddicini” started out as a mechanized wood carpentry for production of furniture, door and window frames wood trading company.

During the first years of the 1940s engineer Renzo Oddicini started the production of wooden floors and in the 1960s he introduced the innovative accordion door on the Italian market.

In the second half of the 1960s it was the first Italian industry to launch the production of Maxparete movable partitions and Elevfloor raised floors, which were synonyms of modernity and flexibility.

In 1978 Paola and Cesare Oddicini started to lead the company, which is now run by architect Susanna Cane who represents the fourth generation of the family.

120 years of research, passion and expertise have turned the solid crafts tradition of “Oddicini” into a multinational company and a leader in the business segments of movable walls and raised floors.
