The pasta people

The Pastalinda brand is synonymous with two things; first and foremost, pasta, and secondly; quality products. As they prepare to exhibit at The Inspired Home Show, Chicago, Pastalinda’s director Jonathan Romero gives Kitchenware International some insight into how the company has developed its product offering…

Jonathan, tell us about the Pastalinda brand – it’s such a well-known name! The origin of the company goes back to 1935, when my family opened a plant for the manufacture of washing, bottling, capping and labelling machines for Italian beverage brands in Milan. In 1948, they decided to move the plant to Argentina and, in 1950, following the influence of their Italian origin, they created the iconic pasta maker Pastalinda. Its innovative and appealing design, together with a sturdy structure and professional quality, shook the market and Pastalinda became the undisputed leader in its field and has since been the favourite pasta maker in South American homes. During its long trajectory, the firm has specialised in the manufacture of pasta making machines, cold cut slicers, cheese grinders, agricultural machines, lawn mowers, washing machines, dryers and more, all of which have been entirely manufactured in their own plant. The company works day after day so that Pastalinda continues to be a synonym of quality, durability, and design.
