MADE IN ITALY vs MADE IN CHINA πŸ‡¨πŸ‡³ – What is really worth buying?

β€œIs your chain really Made in Italy?”
A question we are often asked – by foreign customers, but also by Italian ones.

The answer is yes. In fact, we can proudly say that our chain is almost Made in Lecco!
We do not import components: every meter of chain is produced internally.
Regarding raw materials, packaging and treatments:
πŸ”Ή 44% comes from the province of Lecco
πŸ”Ή 53% comes from the rest of Lombardy
πŸ”Ή 3% comes from the rest of Italy

A short and controlled supply chain, which guarantees quality, reliability and traceability.

But why today, more than ever, is it worth choosing a Made in Italy chain?


Here are some concrete reasons:

βœ… Consistent and certified quality
The materials and the finishings are verified and guarateed. Can an imported product offer the same guarantees in practice?

βœ… Dimensional accuracy
When measurements really matter, you need tolerances that are certain and repeatable, order after order.

βœ… Real mechanical resistance
Have you ever compared the load capacity of an Italian chain and a Chinese one? The difference is visible. And it can be measured.

βœ… Flexibility and speed of delivery
Do you only need small quantities? Do you want to receive them in a few days? With us you can.

βœ… Customization
Do you need special sizes, special packaging, or ready-to-use pieces? We can do it.

βœ… Service and technical documentation
Technical sheets, certifications, declarations on request: we know exactly what we produce and how.

And then there is another crucial aspect:
🌱 Sustainability and ethics
Are imported chains produced respecting the environment? Are they safe? Ethical? Controlled?
Choosing a local supplier means supporting a responsible and transparent production model.
It is not just a question of price, but of values.

❌ If you are only looking for the lowest price, we are probably not the right choice.
βœ… If you are looking for quality, service, customization and a true Made in Italy, we are here.
