The CGM Models brand start in 1995 when Gabriele Canobbio, founder and owner, transformed the hobby of industrial modeling into a profession.
An expert model maker with great knowledge of lifting machines, back in 1995 he designed and built the first 1/50 scale "luffing" tower crane entirely in metal, produced in a limited series and still unique today in the world modeling scene. .
He was the only Italian member of the prestigious H.H.C.M.C. (Heavy Haul & Crane Model Club) based in the Netherlands since the early 90s, in his long career he has undergone more than 500 crane projects, both mobile and tower but not only, including transport, systems, amusement rides and industrial diorama; boasts direct collaborations with the main international machinery manufacturers, has exhibited directly in the most important trade fairs in Europe and its unique models are present in the most exclusive collections all over the world.
CGM Models today deals with the development and production of scale models in small series, customizations and dioramas / presentations for fairs and exhibitions.
The production is totally MADE IN ITALY, created using the most innovative technologies and supported by a group of trusted collaborators and suppliers with many years of experience.
