Company profile

We are a second-generation artisan company, run by Walter and Luca Cortiana, sons of the founder Giampietro.
We are located in Lecco, a famous and renowned Italian wire district.

With more than 50 years of experience behind us, we specialise in the production of small metal chains and, to date, we are the largest national producer of welded chains from 1.30 to 3.90 mm in diameter, made of low-carbon steel and stainless steel.
Every day we produce 35,000 meters of chain with an automatic production cycle of great capacity and flexibility, obtaining products with declared and guaranteed dimensions and tolerances.

Our company policy is centred on unwavering attention to our customers, prioritising safety, well-being, and environmental protection throughout every stage of our processes.
Our market is international, focusing on chain manufacturers, wholesalers, and companies that directly utilise our products. For any type of need in delimiting, connecting and supporting small loads, our chains are the optimal solution.

Indeed, we have the capability to customise our products based on specific needs and intended uses, ensuring that everyone receives the right product in the most suitable finish, packaging, and desired quantities.
Customer service is a fundamental aspect of our commitment, and we prioritise it through our codified and guaranteed “Service Charter” and “General Conditions of Sale.” These guidelines translate into immediate benefits for our customers, promoting clarity in our business practices by always providing necessary information and avoiding misunderstandings, which ultimately saves both time and money.
Finally, we have always paid the utmost attention to the materials used, sourcing from suppliers within a 200 km radius to ensure the absolute integrity of “Made in Italy” standards.

We not only produce a chain, but the right chain for you!
