Angelini Pietro Engraver Rimini
Founded in 1918 in Rimini, Apir takes its name from the initials of its founder and is still managed by the Angelini family.
In four generations Apir transformed from a small engraving workshop to a company that exports all over the world.
A century-old experience that continues to invest in innovation, putting product quality, craftsmanship and exclusive custom design first.

Apir handcrafts signs and stamps and creates the grooved panels used by the Italian Railways to publish train schedules.


Apir participates in the first edition of the Fiera Alberghiera di Rimini for the hospitality industry.


Giorgio and Maria Luisa take Apir products beyond the Alps: they participate in the EquipHotel trade show in Paris and begin to sell by mail order abroad.

Pietro Angelini takes over from his father Giorgio and the company passes on to the third generation of the family.

Always cherishing its Italian roots, the company moves to a larger headquarters in the Republic of San Marino.

The success of Apir products continues to grow and the plant needs to be further expanded: the new workshop and offices move to Castello di Acquaviva.

Apir opens the Paris showroom, a point of reference in the heart of Europe.

Edoardo and Lorenzo Angelini join their father Pietro in the family business.

In April, the new Paris showroom inaugurates in an expanded and renovated guise.
