Seeing the excellent market response, the brothers continued optimistically, making this the main activity of the Ambrogi.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]In those days this was a new thing in northern Italy, and within a short time the firm expanded into Europe (the 50s saw the manufacture by Ambrogi of the very first pizza ovens for Switzerland, Germany etc).Over the years, the name of the firm <strong>became recognised and known by many worldwide as a synonym for quality.\u00a0<\/strong>While still a mechanics student, and despite continuing to build traditional ovens with brick domes, in the late 50s the young Franco Ambrogi conceived the first oven made of prefabricated metal.\u00a0\u00a0Next the firm designed and fine-tuned a new system for constructing the cooking chamber in prefabricated fireproof concrete. While retaining the virtues of the brick dome, the fireproof concrete prevents errors in construction, allows special shapes to be produced and makes the whole oven more durable.\u00a0The initially sporadic demand for this innovative product rapidly became a flood. In just a few years it became the most popular model, and paved the way for a new concept of ovens, to the extent that several other manufacturers redesigned their techniques, replacing brickwork with prefabricated mono-blocks.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1628619227238{background-image: url(https:\/\/www.ambrogi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/ambrogi-storia-azienda-e1622021503227-1.jpeg?id=9325) !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;350px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4>The MEC80 oven and the 70s<\/h4>\n<p>In the late 70s, Ambrogi once again revolutionised the market with the <strong>MEC 80<\/strong> model (whose name is inspired by the European Common Market). The design of this oven now called mod. BASE- is a pre-assembled wood-fired oven ready to be delivered and installed on-site without the need for specialised labour. In effect, <strong>Ambrogi can be considered the creator of this particular piece of restaurant equipment on the world market.\u00a0<\/strong>Having moved years ago to the outskirts of Milan, today the firm is in its third generation, led by Luciano and Giada.\u00a0All the processes needed for the construction of ovens take place in-house, from metalworking to the formation and assembly of the ovens and the preparation of fireproof materials etc. Furthermore, our highly specialised staff take care of the installation and start-up of the finished product in restaurants and pizzerias.\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Although Ambrogi is a highly-structured modern firm, its production is considered an artisan process.<\/strong> At Ambrogi we continue to work with the same passion as our founder. And we\u2019re constantly improving our methods by adopting new technical innovations.\u00a0In the course of our long history, we have gained growing trust and esteem from our national and international clientele, rewarding the effort and sacrifices we make \u00a0in order to offer our customers the best possible product.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4>Today<\/h4>\n<p>In 2019, Ambrogi celebrates eighty years in business.
