1959. By will of Pompeo and Vittorio Cavalli, Ipe was born, acronym for Imbottiture Prodotti Espansi (padding and expansion products), in a structure of 6.000 sqm in the vicinity of Bologna. But what were expansion products in 1959? They were what we call today Polyurethane; chemical materials, soft and resilient, which permitted abandoning of the use of springs, horse hair, wool and other materials. This therefore revolutionised the construction system of the sofas, beds and also the seats of automobiles. Ipe was one of the very first companies to adopt this new method, be it for the seats of the automobiles, Lancia, be it for objects of design-furnishing, from it’s first product called Kosmo, designed by Prof. Rito Valla.
