Pietro Minute, after having finished primary school, attended an evening class course in mechanical engineering. He was then able to find a job in the mechanical workshop department of Filos, a local firm in Segusino.
After his military service, he decided to open a small workshop to manufacture pins for glasses: this was in 1963. He is able to expand the business and everything started to go in the best possible way, but soon space started to run low and a new bigger workshop is necessary to go further.
The first factory built construction is finished and OMAS officially born, and established in Segusino, Treviso, Italy. A dynamic reality that produces metal prescription frames and sunglasses frames.
During the first years of 1970’s the entrepreneur Pietro Minute decided not to limit himself just to produce eye components but also to start making die caste, pressed parts and fully finished optical and sunglass frames.
By 1991 he built another new factory unit in the nearby industrial area, and transferred there the entire die cast production, in that way dividing up two very different production processes.
In 1997 Pietro decided it was time to divide the company into four sections, giving each one of his four daughters a commitment to continue in the various activities on their own. From thereafter:
Omas produces Sunglasses and Optical frames;
2M Decori produces small die-cast parts;
S.M. welds and makes other processes on both glasses and fashion accessories;
Mizu produces nose pad arms and components;
At the present time the group has more than 400 employees.
The acquisition of a building formerly hosting a company which was active in the eyewear sector has been completed and the department that deals with the final stages of eyewear production has been transferred to it: final assembly, finishing and packaging.
The Omas-2M Decori Group has taken over a company that in the past has been operating in the sector of galvanic coating for eyewear and at the same time launches an important renewal of the infrastructural and technological activity.
A brand new 4000 sqm building located in Viale Europa is completed. The Omas production previously located in the 3 “historic” buildings in Via Val de la Nona has been transferred inside.
Omas, throughout its long 60 year history has always moved towards the direction of carrying out as many production operations as possible internally to lead towards the creation of the finished eyewear product, both regarding the production of its own product brand and for third-party customers.
This process has undergone a further acceleration over the last 10 years.
Firstly, with the acquisition of two factories and the transfer of the finishing electroplating and painting departments there, and finally with the construction during the two-year period 2018 -2019 of a brand-new factory unit adjacent to the building that housed the final assembly department of the eyewear. This way, an answer was found to the need to carry out and control all stages of eyewear production internally, from design to final packaging.
The advantages of this are many, the main ones are:
Maximizing the quality of each individual piece made
Maximum flexibility in the management of work orders
Optimization of production schedules
The ability to highlight possible design flaws from the beginning and the optimization of the intermediate and final costs for the customer
For years Omas has produced its products for companies on commission, for the big names of the industry and some of the most prestigious fashion brands in the world.
In 2013, an idea came to create a small line of niche eyewear and sunglasses, targeted to win over the most prestigious opticians and people who are able to understand the uniqueness of the product, and who appreciate, not so much its name, but the quality and diversity of the models themselves.
Omas has always worked with rhinestones, not with simple applications on acetate, but using metal components with three-dimensional drawings, making their glasses into real jewels.
Care and detail make the difference. On the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary, Omas decided to celebrate in the only way Omas know how, by proposing a new and exceptional line of eyewear signed Omas Design.
Omas believes in Made in Italy, in the values and traditions of our territory, in ethics and the local craftsmen. We have chosen to perform all the production processes internally thereby creating a flexible and competent team of people.
Our glasses are produced exclusively in ITALY, in our factories in Segusino (TV).
It is a business choice, that allows us to safeguard, and not to waste, the professionalism that in the last fifty years sets us apart from many in experience and creation of our glasses.
Our production is specialized in the realization of exclusive ideas born from drawings of our customers, that have led us to understand the importance of the design for the creation of the models.
The Omas Design world has been enriched with a new capsule collection, distinguished by precious and very elegant watermarks on the fronts and by the marriage with the smooth lines of the temples. The final effect is one of lightness and luminosity, elegance and sophistication in its perfect simplicity.
