1972 - 2022: this year we celebrate the 50th year of the new Nuova Simonelli logo.
We mark 50 years of growth and development always looking to the future.
The innovation was not only in the name but also in the ownership. Before that the brand name was only "Simonelli", the addition of "NUOVA" - meaning "new" in Italian - was to strenghten the idea of innovation of the brand and the whole company; while maintaining its roots in the tradition and history with the name of the founder Orlando Simonelli.
This is ISX: the first coffee machine with the new Nuova Simonelli Logo, still present today on our coffee machine in order to keep the memory of the success of those years.
Plus, with ISX Nuova Simonelli introduced electronics for the first time ever in a coffe machine and introduced a new elegant and modern design. It was a real revolution!
