SPRING 1991
With the constant stream of requests for Show Cars and Style Models, Roberto and Alfredo Stola decided in the spring of 1991 that the time had come to have a new factory.
The objective was to concentrate the three operational offices and eliminate the inefficiencies deriving from a fragmented and obsolete "lay out".
The new Cad Cam technologies, the need for ever larger and faster CN milling machines, the increase in workers who by then had reached 160 people, the need to give better and safer spaces to customers, make decisions for restructuring and expansion of a large building in Rivoli located in Via Ferrero 9, just off city ring road. 27 months was set as the goal for the realization of work, from design to moving in.
The design was by the architect Paolo Rosani, son of Antonio Rosani who had built the Lancia skyscraper in Borgo San Paolo near the old headquarters of Via Issiglio 38 where founder Alfredo Stola and his three sons, had witnessed its construction in the second half of the 50s.
Marco Goffi and Alfredo Stola, from the spring of 1992 dedicated themselves 100% to following the construction and plant work together with building contractor Edil G, taking care of the move up until the last day.
This decision was taken by Roberto Stola who oversaw the entire project almost daily.
