About Us – Muzzi Generators

muzzi storia

Muzzi Generators is a company that embodies the history and innovation of Italian industry, standing as a pillar in the mechanical and energy sectors. With deep roots in Florence and a tradition dating back to the 19th century, Muzzi Generators is today synonymous with quality, reliability, and a vision for the future.

Our Origins

Our story begins in 1892, when Giovanni Muzzi, an expert glassmaker from Milan, moved to Florence and founded a small workshop on Via Boccaccio. Specializing in the production of glass molds, this initiative marked the first step in a journey that would profoundly influence the Italian industrial landscape.

Upon Giovanni’s death in 1902, his four sons inherited the workshop, relocating it to Via Guglielmo Pepe. In 1910, the family decided to take two distinct paths: Angelo continued his father’s legacy, while the other brothers founded F.lli Muzzi fu Giovanni. At their new premises at the Officine Galileo in Le Cure, they designed and built the first industrial combustion engine entirely manufactured in Italy.

Contribution During World War I

During World War I, the F.lli Muzzi factory, located on Via Giuseppe Mazzoni in Rifredi, was converted into an auxiliary factory, contributing to the production of weaponry for the Italian army. Among its standout products was the famous ‘91 rifle, a symbol of Italian ingenuity and industry.

Post-War Conversion and Growth

After the war, the company underwent a phase of industrial reconversion, focusing on the design and manufacturing of engines for industry and agriculture. The “Fabbrica Italiana Motori Muzzi” launched the “Italia” engine and collaborated with key players like the “Costruzioni Ferroviarie Meccaniche” of Arezzo, producing agricultural vehicles and spare parts for locomotives.

In addition to heavy machinery, the company also excelled in creating artistic wrought iron works, designed by Bianca Scarpari, the wife of one of the owners. These creations were praised for their beauty and craftsmanship, further strengthening Muzzi’s reputation as an Italian excellence.
