Our history
OUR HISTORY:
FROM 1900 A REAL PASSION FOR WATER.
The history of a company is often interlaced with the one of the place where everything began. As fr as Almar is concerned, this place is a water mill.
In 1900, the progenitor of Civelli family bought a water mill to grind wheat. An old family craft, deeply bound with a passion for water, that will be handed down to the following generations. The same passion with which, after more than one century, Marco and Aldo Civelli will accompany ALMAR on the international market, providing their customers with a new experience with water, that will revolutionize the way of living the bathroom.
