WHO WE ARE
Founded in 1949, CRISTINA Rubinetterie went through 75 years of Italian history capitalising on the values of production capability, tradition and credibility, intercepting innovation and internationalisation trends, positioning itself among the tapware’s sector leader brands.
The synergy with SILFRA began in 1987 and the entrance of the Caleffi holding in 2017 has accompanied and supported the constant process of growth, evolution and development of CRISTINA towards a more sustainable reality.
SILFRA Bathroom Tech is regarded as one of the leading brands in the hydrosanitary market in the technical compartment thanks to the constantly renovated proposal of innovative solutions: diversified products whose high quality is widely recognised within an increasingly demanding market related to the legal framework, sensible to the energy saving and the environmental conservation.
CRISTINA represents the design-oriented side, SILFRA embodies the essential backstage.
Producer of high-quality components for heating, plumbing, air conditioning and renewable energy, for residential and industrial systems. Providing advanced components for metering applications. The Study & Research Centre CUBOROSSO (REDCUBE) and the MAV Automatic Vertical Warehouse that ensures even faster shipping and punctual delivery, are further strength points.
It is a member of the European Association CEIR (Tapware and Valves Industry) and the Italian Association AVR (Valves and Tapware).
GROUP COMPANIES
Sustainability is represented by development that can meet all the needs of the current generation without compromising the possibility for future generations to meet their own.
The Caleffi group Sustainability Report was drafted by reporting on a selection of the “Global Reporting Initiative Sustainability Reporting Standards” (GRI-Referenced claim) defined by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), 2021 edition.

NEW GALVANIC
We proudly announce the launch of the new and innovative galvanic line in the Gargallo factory, a technological leap that raises both the quality of the aesthetic treatment of the product and the commitment to the environment.
Every detail has been designed to save energy and reduce environmental impact: from the thermal insulation of the heated tanks with automatic lids to the solutions for the treatment of wastewater, specifically to allow their re-use.
The purification system ensures continuous and efficient production of the galvanic line, using less than 1000 liters of water per hour in new withdrawal. A galvanic plant comparable in size and production capacity would use at least seven times as much, with a daily consumption close to 50,000 litres.
The company carries out many manual processes, a guarantee of making as its own the character of Italian design, able to combine the industrial side with the craftsmanship skill.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
This is how the extraordinary adding quality is read, made possible by the intervention of the labour force specialised in mechanical processing, galvanic surface treatment, polishing and grinding phases: a savoir-faire plus-value, attentive to innovation and the wise use of materials. Mind, head, heart: the cardinal principles of the brand’s philosophy.
CRISTINA BRERA SHOWROOM
Completely renewed in Fall 2022, the interior project by the Elisa Ossino Studio proposes an experiential approach in search of new water paths.
Entering the Milan Showroom of via Pontaccio, in the heart of the Brera quarter, the new appears with strength, establishing with the visitor an immediate communication open to a high degree of expressivity.
