Initially, it was classified as garden chair; then, two American operators showcased Rio in their warehouse advertising that it fit all environments. Since then, Rio became incredibly popular for many years.

However, there were two more important things happened in EMU’s growth process. One is its partnership with IKEA during 1980s and ‘90s, facilitating the project of large-scale automated production plant and global distribution. The other is the LVMH becoming a big shareholder of EMU in 2005, during which period the company started working with international major designers and successfully entered the market niche called “accessible luxury”.

EMU dedicates itself to working with and protecting metal. The Cannole seating system has a welded structure made up of steel tubes, with slim legs made of tubular steel. The collection consists of: Corner module sofa, linear module sofa, pouf, lounge chair and low table.
