Abstract

Faber Industrie was born in 1969 in Cividale del Friuli. The company, which specializes in the design, production and distribution of cylinders and high-pressure gas systems, was founded by the engineer Renzo Toffolutti, a determined pioneer of technological innovation in industrial mechanics in the North-East of Italy. “The engineer”, as he was called by his employees and collaborators for his precision, passionate determination and vivid curiosity, often recalled that everyone is an art of his own future, quoting the Latin phrase “homo faber suae fortunae”. Today, more than 50 years after the founding date, the quote by Toffolutti has also found its physical location within the company headquarters. This quote, during a global pandemic, seems even more relevant, and which has not only found a physical place in the company imagined by "The Engineer", but also in the hearts of those who work in Faber today. In the last year, the business has embarked on a process of innovation of its paradigm to cope with the uncertainty of the ecosystem and future prospects. In this regard, we interviewed the CEO of Faber Industrie, Engineer Giovanni Toffolutti.
