Sea & Symphony signs an agreement with
Pilote Films for the French market.
The French market expansion strategy is built on a partnership with a leader in professional audiovisual distribution.
Sea & Symphony, an Italian company specialising in the design and manufacturing of TV lift systems and motorised motion solutions, announces a partnership with Pilote Films for the distribution of its products in the French market.
“We have known Pilote Films for several years and have always held their professionalism in high regard,” says Nino Biagini, CEO of Sea & Symphony. “We are genuinely pleased to have signed this agreement. The commitment with which Pilote Films is approaching our mechanisms, including their most technically specific aspects, lays the groundwork for a solid and lasting collaboration. We are confident they will be able to convey the full potential of our motion systems to their clients.”
Stéphane Rosen, CEO of Pilote Films, shares the enthusiasm: “We are truly excited to begin this collaboration with Sea & Symphony, and for more than one reason. Their catalogue is extraordinarily comprehensive, covering a wide range of motorised systems designed for the furniture world that opens up new integration possibilities for our clients. Build quality and product reliability naturally played a role in our decision, but there is one element that truly convinced us: a genuine desire to build something remarkable together.“
A broad range, with a vocation for custom made
Through this partnership, Pilote Films will be able to bring Sea & Symphony‘s full product range to the French market: the result of a design approach that combines engineering rigour with a genuine openness to customisation. The concealed TV lift systems span from standard column lifts to ceiling-mounted mechanisms, including one of the Turin-based company’s most distinctive products: the Alzo-Zero, a double-stroke system that allows large-format televisions to disappear inside surprisingly compact furniture. The catalogue also extends to under-bed and in-wall TV concealment systems, as well as kitchen-dedicated solutions featuring motorised worktops and pantry compartments.
Sea & Symphony has established partnerships with some of the most prominent high-end furniture manufacturers, many of whom showcased the results of this collaboration at the most recent Salone del Mobile in Milan, the world’s leading design event.
Alongside these systems, the company develops bespoke contract solutions for hotels, auditoriums, meeting rooms, luxury brand showrooms and cruise ships: diverse contexts united by the need for technology and design language to coexist seamlessly.
“Clients often come to us looking for products that our competitors cannot provide,” explains Eugenio Troglia, Business Developer at Sea & Symphony. “Once they experience the reliability of our systems, the relationship naturally extends to more standard supply requirements as well. Our goal is to establish ourselves as a reference partner not only for the most complex projects, but also for recurring systems. We already demonstrate this in the marine industry, where our presence spans both standard products such as mid-size TV lifts and highly complex custom projects.”
Made in Italy in france
France is the third most important market for Italian exports, accounting for 10% of the total, behind only Germany and the United States. For Sea & Symphony, this is far from new territory: the company has a well-established presence in the marine segment, shaped in part by a longstanding collaboration with the leading French shipbuilding group.
In parallel, through interior design projects and referrals originating in the yachting industry, Sea & Symphony has been involved in the renovation of some of the most prestigious hotels along the French Riviera. High-end residential projects have also seen the company’s systems installed in numerous private properties along the Côte d’Azur, from Monaco to Marseille.
“Sea & Symphony’s reputation in France has grown steadily over the years, as evidenced by the network of installers and collaborators capable of providing prompt technical support across the entire country,” says Eugenio Troglia. “With the Pilote Films partnership, we are confident we can take this presence to a higher, more structured and ambitious level.“
Following this agreement, systems designed and manufactured in Turin will gain new channels to reach broader markets, continuing the company’s growth trajectory and contributing, once again, to the international recognition of the Made in Italy.
