Baldassare Agnelli, eighteen, does an internship in Montenegro, where he discovers a piece of gray metal that did not yet exist in Italy, it was aluminum. Baldassare returns to Italy, the B. Agnelli Metallurgical Plant is founded in Bergamo. Italy enters the war: copper pots are confiscated by the State for the production of bullets needed in battle. The country discovers aluminum pots. Wall Street collapses and the Great Depression begins. Industrial production in the world drops by 50% and bankruptcies and layoffs lead to a crisis in consumption, contributing to fueling a vicious circle that will lead the economy to a standstill. Aluminum pots are the norm in Italian homes. Baldassare Agnelli patents the Quadrifoglio Pot. As with the Quadrifoglio Pot, the company demonstrates its ability to meet the needs of a population in economic crisis: Baldassare Agnelli patents the Problem Pot. Italy enters the Second World War. The company focuses on aluminum parade items, such as helmets and water bottles. Following the economic revival after the Second World War, the restaurant industry in Italy grows exponentially. Baldassare Agnelli becomes a world leader in the production of professional cookware. The Agnelli family incorporates the Fasa Pentole company, founded in the 1960s as a small artisan company for the production of aluminum cookware for professional kitchens. In the years immediately following, the company develops successfully, with the aim of covering every need of the sector, perfecting its range and strengthening the element of craftsmanship that has always distinguished it in its production. By will of Baldassare Agnelli, SAPS is born, a non-profit association as a reference and center for research, experimentation and information that, in collaboration with great chefs, is able to demonstrate the correct use of materials and shapes of cooking tools, to simplify and improve any recipe. Baldassare Agnelli, through SAPS, carries out an intense cultural activity on a daily basis with seminars that enhance Italian haute cuisine and the quality of agri-food products. Also in 2002, with the desire to keep alive the memory of almost a hundred years of production activity, the Agnelli family decided to set up a very special Museum of the Pot that occupies the interior floor of the SAPS research and training center. It is actually a faithful reproduction of what the Agnelli workshop was like in the early 1900s: the electrical system with the lamps of the time, the original windows of the historic headquarters in Via Fantoni (in the center of Bergamo) and that unmistakable smell of metal that seems to have permeated the air, immediately convey to the visitor the sensation of having crossed the invisible threshold of time. The philosophy of the Agnelli Group is based on research and innovation, acquiring over time the primacy in the professional cookware sector so much so that today, when we talk about cookware, the "Pentola Agnelli" is synonymous with the best production in the name of quality.
