The Lampa story begins with Aldo Marutti's entrepreneurial career which got off to a humble start in the 50s in the form of a small, local car accessories business.

With the gradual but ever more dynamic opening of the consumer market during the 60s he focused his efforts on a small manufacturing business that sold its spare parts for cars to just a small cluster of Italian provinces.
Business expansion went into high gear in the 70s with the production of car seat backs and other smaller accessories that were distributed on a national level by a small distribution network that was set up and run by the company itself.

During the second half of the 70s, thanks to an enormous personal commitment, the firm began to break into the international market and, thanks to Marutti's keen business acumen, they experienced considerable growth in the sales of automobile accessories.

With the significant increase in the volume of sales, in the early 80s the company was incorporated into an S.p.A. in which all the capital has remained to this day in the hands of the Marutti family.

As an S.p.A., LAMPA has taken on an international scope and today it represents one of the major distributors of automobile accessories on both a domestic and international level.

Later, toward the middle of the 90s, LAMPA S.p.A. decided to get involved in a new sector devoted to leisure time, initiating the distribution a vast array of items, including accessories for bicycles. In bike accessory sector as well, LAMPA S.p.A. can boast of being one of the leading players in the field.

At the beginning of the new millennium LAMPA kicked off a new program of investments aimed at creating a new manufacturing plant to be built on an area some 25,000 square meters, intended to guarantee vastly improved merchandise stocking and handling capacities thanks to sophisticated computerized management systems.
