Vision And Mission

A CONTINUOUS EVOLUTION.

It is in the essence of things. Evolution, transformation, evolution.
Light is part of all these processes in a natural way. We look, we perceive, we transform images into thoughts, based on light and its infinite nuances, we generate new ideas, thoughts, feelings.

  • A LEGACY WE ARE PROUD TO BELONG TO
    Sea, together with light, is our passion. We learned about the arts of shipwrights in Viareggio, Tuscany coastal area, and got acquainted with local shipyards that have brought Italian excellence in the construction and refit of superyachts all over the world.
  • INTERNATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS, INSPIRING AND CHALLENGING VENTURE
    Starting from these very good basis, we developed the strength and ability to face foreign markets, and conquer the trust of shipyards, designers and lighting designers with our design and manufacturing skills.
  • OPEN TO INNOVATION
    We invest in the most advanced technologies and in the creativity of young people, always bench marking with international partners.
    To keep evolving.

ALESSANDRO PALAGI - CEO

 

If I look back in time, I see myself as a boy working on the machines in our workshop.
Handling steel, setting up machinery, assisting in the assembly of lighting fixtures.
I remember the operations we carried out in the workshop, a daily ritual that contributed to making the lighting fixtures branded PALAGI unique.
Years that have helped me to know all the production phases, all the technical mechanisms for implementation on board, the secrets of light and its extraordinary effect on the interiors and exteriors of boats.

Today I can thank my father who allowed me to have this experience, leaving me the reins of the company and the responsibility of facing market evolutions, in a world where technological innovation runs faster than ever.
