Elix Group announces the strategic acquisition of French cabinetmaker Atelier Zorn, strengthening its leading position in the luxury goods industry.

Geneva – Elix Group, the world leader in watch accessories through its SwissKubik and Scatola del Tempo brands, is pleased to confirm the acquisition of Atelier Zorn (atelierzorn.com), an art cabinetmaker based in Mulhouse, near the Swiss border.

Atelier Zorn is renowned for its exceptional expertise in the design and creation of exclusive fittings for private aircraft, yachts, exceptional villas and luxury hotels.

Founded in 2015, this family-run business continues a heritage of passion and excellence, today collaborating closely with the most prestigious houses in the luxury industry. The arrival of Atelier Zorn within the group marks a significant step forward in the group’s mission to bring together houses with exceptional heritages and expertise. Philippe Zorn, a fourth-generation cabinetmaker, will continue to lead Atelier Zorn as Managing Director, working closely with Louis Castelli, the new CEO.

This acquisition will enable Elix Group to broaden its in-house expertise, combining the strengths of three distinct but complementary companies. Scatola del Tempo brings tradition and elegance, SwissKubik offers technology and precision, while Atelier Zorn brings the creative dimension and artful cabinet-making. This synergy will enable us to explore new possibilities for watchmakers and collectors of timepieces the world over, but above all to push back the limits of customization for safes, furniture and security cabinets.

The acquisition of Atelier Zorn by Elix Group marks the merger of three exceptional family-run businesses, guaranteeing impeccable quality,” says Xavier Castelli, President of Elix Group.

We now combine the best of each house to offer excellence while preserving the identity and soul of each. Imagine a piece of furniture designed by Atelier Zorn, upholstered in leathers selected by Scatola del Tempo and equipped with SwissKubik technology – the result is an exceptional piece of furniture.”

By adding Atelier Zorn to its portfolio, Elix Group consolidates its position as a major player in the luxury goods industry. This acquisition also strengthens existing synergies between SwissKubik and Scatola del Tempo, offering the group’s discerning clientele a wider range of exceptional products.
