About Us HOUSEWARES FOR THREE GENERATIONS We have been producing housewares in Italy since 1950. We are in Lumezzane, in the province of Brescia, in the well-known district of excellence in the production of household items. The Olympia Company was created in 2003 to offer innovative, high quality and entirely made in Italy items to the market. The use of productions with die-cast aluminum and with high quality coatings applied by spray, immediately distinguishes and characterizes the products offered. Not simple pots but real cooking tools, attentive to the new needs of good food in a healthy manner. The Process of Die Casting DIE CASTING Production technology providing high quality cookware. The production takes place through the high pressure die casting of molten aluminum at 700 ° C. which is injected into the mold. This technology makes it possible to obtain differentiated thicknesses, i.e. more aluminum where necessary, for example on the bottom, to obtain perfect heat distribution, saving energy and having perfect cooking. Die-casting is the only production technology that allows to obtain one-piece aluminum handles, one with the pot body, indestructible and usable even in the oven. The benefit of die cast aluminum is that it is light weight, durable, scratch resistant, and a great heat conductor. COATING We use products from PPG (formerly WHITFORD) , a leading company in the production of high quality coatings that are PFOA FREE and suitable for food contact. We apply the coatings with the "spray" technology, the only one that allows the application of various layers of product, creating a high thickness of non-stick, with the insertion of reinforcements such as titanium or mineral particles that give the highest resistance to scratching. HANDMADE The post-molding finishing is treated with artisan care, with machine passages and hand-finished details, which give the product the value and exclusivity typical of handcrafted products.
