Today we look at another European Powerhouse: ALNO
The foundation of ALNO was laid in 1927 when Albert Nothdurft opened a small carpentry shop in the town of Wangen bei Göppingen.
In August 2003, ALNO was acquired the Casawell Service Group, a network of companies active across the globe in the fields of kitchen design and technology.
Big you ask? How about $550,000,000, 3,000 employees world wide and the production of 2000 kitchens a day, ALNO is among the largest manufacturers of kitchens in the world.
A sneak peak at their designs:
my partner and i were recently going through the same process, and it was great to read through your comments on all the kitchen manufacturers. we ended up settling on boffi, with bulthaup a close 2nd. in the process we came across a great seattle firm that focuses on modern kitchens: henrybuilt. rather impractical for our london flat, but perhaps if we ever move back to the US. have you checked them out? have you decided what you're going with?
