Ritmonio’s history mirrors the story of a region and an industrial district that was able to make Italian production world famous while also incentivizing local socio-economic development with its brass fitting processing for tap ware production.1 Like many others in Italy, this industrial district is going through difficult economic times, particularly due to the fierce competition from South East Asia and the restrictive regulations that limit the content of heavy metals in products. Ritmonio is today a leading classical and highly design-oriented industrial business in the chrome-plated brass tap sector that has tackled the crisis by taking up a challenging project of structural innovation.

Abstract

Ritmonio’s history mirrors the story of a region and an industrial district that was able to make Italian production world famous while also incentivizing local socio-economic development with its brass fitting processing for tap ware production.1 Like many others in Italy, this industrial district is going through difficult economic times, particularly due to the fierce competition from South East Asia and the restrictive regulations that limit the content of heavy metals in products. Ritmonio is today a leading classical and highly design-oriented industrial business in the chrome-plated brass tap sector that has tackled the crisis by taking up a challenging project of structural innovation.
