What Apostoli Daniele does

Apostoli Daniele S.r.l. is a privately held Italian industrial manufacturer founded in 1959 and headquartered in Montirone (Brescia), with a registered office and showroom in Brescia. The company designs, produces, installs, and services custom-made technical window treatments (roller shades, Venetian blinds, vertical and panel shades), exterior sun protection (retractable awnings, bioclimatic pergolas, frangisole sun breakers), industrial doors (rapid packaging doors including the patented Saildoor® system, flap doors, accordion doors, industrial sectional doors, PVC strip curtains, shutters, and fire-rated REI doors), residential sectional garage doors, and mobile/fixed industrial coverings. Manufacturing is vertically integrated at the Montirone facility using Hunter Douglas machinery, with product compliance to EN 13241-1, EN 13453, and EN 12424 (wind resistance Class 5). Apostoli Daniele is certified to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 14064-1 and owns European patents EP3243998 and EP3243999 covering Saildoor®.

The company sells primarily through a national network of commercial agents (agenti di commercio), two physical showrooms in Brescia and Montirone, and a dedicated Qatar office serving the Gulf Cooperation Council; international promotion of Saildoor® is conducted at global trade fairs, supported by POR FESR regional grants. Revenue derives from one-time custom product sales (made-to-measure shading and industrial doors), operational leasing of industrial doors, recurring service and maintenance contracts, and contract project services for hospitality clients (hotels, restaurants, wellness, marine) requiring certified textiles. Named enterprise customers span manufacturing (Cembre, Lombardini, OMR, Villani), food (Orogel), and hospitality/contract (Volpi, GoldenGrid, Avant Garde, Bullseye, Ideabox, CTM), with additional SMB/residential volume through the showroom and Ecobonus-driven sales channels.

The Apostoli Interior division extends the brand into custom interior textile furnishings, while the Safe Wall modular partition system targets protective partitioning for offices and production environments. Strategic priorities evidenced in the data are EU and GCC internationalization of the patented Saildoor® product, deepening of the contract/hospitality vertical through certified textile offerings, and modernization of the production cost base via EU-subsidized energy efficiency upgrades.
