Founded in Umbria in 1951, already in the 1960s EMU realized that it had a natural talent for the manufacturing of outdoor furniture, in which it could make the best use of technology and its cultural heritage of local know-how and skill in working metal.
In the 1980-90s it became the leader in the garden furniture sector, producing also one of its greatest successes, the Rio chair, selling 8,000,000 pieces since it was introduced. The 15% growth in sales and production in both 2005 and 2006 bears witness to the great expansion of Emu furniture, which is currently the largest producer of outdoor metal furniture and furnishings in the world, producing about 1,000,000 pieces a year.
The quality of the furniture is guaranteed by the “made in Italy” production and by Emu’s commitment to technological research, with an ongoing study of materials and production techniques. Quality is related to the attention given to the manufacturing process, stemming from fine craftsmanship and a thorough knowledge of the raw materials.

Emu is the only company that covers an extremely broad market, ranging from large-scale retail to the luxury sector. The product lines, which include chairs, tables, loungers, furniture for relaxing, living room sets and accessories, are available in a variety of materials, from metal to Emu wicker and Teak Metal, and they can satisfy every price and design need. Many luxury hotels have in fact chosen Emu for furnishing charming terraces and other areas: the Colony Hotels group on the Costa Smeralda, The Gray of the Sina Hotels and the Park Hyatt in Milan, the Esedra in Rome, the Granducato in Florence and the Hotel dei Dogi in Venice of the Boscolo Hotels group, to name but a few, are home to the unmistakable taste and Italian style of Emu’s creations. Emu is also notably present in the Venaria Reale – the Savoy Royal Palace – and at the Le Saut du Loup and Ephémère restaurants in Paris.
The latest collections were designed by internationally famous designers. Names such as Paola Navone, Patricia Urquiola, Jean-Marie Massaud, Christophe Pillet and Rodolfo Dordoni have already created exclusive lines for Emu, and other top international designers will be added in the future, with at least two designer collections planned every year.
