Since 1951, innovative solutions to meet the needs of the changing world.

Protek® is the story of a family history, determined people and a strong bond with the territory. In the mid-1980s, brothers Giovanni and Maurizio Maggioni picked up the legacy of experience and the reins of their father Rino's craft business, founded in 1951: a small mechanical workshop, operating in the heart of Brianza. Intrapreneurship and dedication are the fundamental elements that allow the two brothers to devise numerous innovative projects over the years, aimed at the most different sectors of industry and craftsmanship.

And it is this, "the school in the field," that teaches the Maggioni brothers to use all kinds of materials, allowing them to develop original solutions that will later be applied in the first desired goal: to design and produce counterframes for retractable sliding doors and windows, with innovative and futuristic technical peculiarities, developed thanks to the historical craftsmanship of accuracy and tailoring.

Thus, at the beginning of the new millennium, Protek® was born: the company's name deliberately encapsulates the concept of thinking from the outset about innovative products. Protek®, in fact, is the result of the contraction of "Technological Products."

location

Protek® is based in Usmate Velate (MB), just outside Milan, where it occupies a 10,000-square-meter production site.

Strong growth and a desire for continued expansion necessitated the construction of a new 3,000-square-meter logistics site to enable better management of both supplies and production.

The new building, in line with the company's stance of promoting environmental sustainability, was built with TX Active® cement, which allows for an improvement in air quality due to its properties that decompose organic and inorganic pollutants in the air, helping to improve its quality.

THE PURSUIT OF QUALITY

The new 4.0 plant fully represents the desire to address new requirements in terms of production needs, together with the ownership's desire to improve the quality of both products and the lives of its workers by eliminating the most burdensome and least efficient operations.
Production optimization was addressed in conjunction with a discourse on environmental sustainability, which has always been one of the issues closest to the heart of the Protek® team.

For this reason, we set our quality standards at a high level. Our products are made from high-quality, environmentally friendly materials such as aluminum and wood from FSC-certified forests. The completely revised packaging is 100% recyclable and extremely more environmentally friendly than the previous packaging. Experience in design, strong innovative spirit, continuous research and attention to detail interpret the technological essence of Protek®.

The link between innovation and tradition, the connection to an area rich in companies and people devoted to technology and design, represent the tools through which Protek® is able to create solutions that interpret the 100% Made in Italy.
