PRECISE SEGMENT TARGETING<br />
Our outstanding brand portfolio is <strong>the</strong> backbone of our product<br />
offer. Thanks to its very broad scope, we can finely segment<br />
markets and offer adapted and complementary responses to<br />
<strong>the</strong> needs of retailers. The Group works to extend its product<br />
coverage over <strong>the</strong> entire market spectrum, from entry-level to<br />
premium ranges, with tactical entry-level offers, constantly<br />
updated mid-range assortments, and <strong>the</strong> highest standards of<br />
technical performance, quality and service for <strong>the</strong> more selective<br />
premium segment.<br />

presence with a competitive offer in nonstick enamel of<br />
guaranteed quality. Tefal is also a benchmark brand in middle<br />
ranges which it constantly updates to offer our customers lasting<br />
performance and greater user comfort with products made from<br />
enamelled aluminium, stainless steel or cast aluminium, or with<br />
an induction-cooking base. Fur<strong>the</strong>r up-scale, Lagostina offers<br />
well-designed, elegant assortments that reflect <strong>the</strong> high standards<br />
of Italian cooking. In premium ranges, All-Clad, with its unique<br />
multi-layer utensils, brings <strong>the</strong> guarantee of truly professional<br />
quality to kitchen equipment.<br />
Beyond this international focus, ranges are also aimed to cater for<br />
<strong>the</strong> needs of local markets: different lid-closing technologies<br />
for pressure cookers (insert, bayonet or clamp systems), special<br />
equipment such as woks and rice cookers in China, square pans<br />
in Japan, <strong>the</strong> pastaiola or <strong>the</strong> risottiera in Italy...<br />
