In high-value environments such as jewelry manufacturing and showrooms, every visual detail matters. At Patros Gioielli, located in Vicenza, the historic heart of Italian goldsmithing, design coherence and material refinement are part of the brand’s DNA. When the company chose to integrate fire extinguisher protection into its premises, the objective was clear: ensure regulatory compliance without compromising aesthetic integrity.
The solution selected was Tempo by Designfeu, a fire extinguisher cover designed to transform mandatory safety equipment into an architectural element.
Patros Gioielli: Precision, Emotion and Made in Italy
Founded in Vicenza and operating under Patros Srl, the company specialises in the production of gold jewelry set with precious and semi‑precious stones. Its positioning sits between industrial mastery and artisanal savoir‑faire, combining lost-wax casting, precision mechanical processes, stone setting and electroforming.
Patros was among the first Italian manufacturers to introduce semi‑precious stones into structured collections, reinforcing a more chromatic and creative approach to jewelry design. Collections such as Essentia reflect minimalist lines, emotional storytelling and “daily jewelry” concepts – pieces designed to be worn, not merely displayed.
In such an environment, safety devices must integrate seamlessly into a refined, contemporary space.
Tempo: A Fire Extinguisher Cover Designed for Aesthetic Coherence
Tempo is not a cabinet; it is a sculptural fire extinguisher protective cover available in single, bi or tri‑colour configurations. For prescribers, this modular chromatic system allows:
- Selection of cover colour
- Choice of base material and finish
- Standard palette (21 shades) or custom RAL on demand (+180 colours)
This flexibility enables integration into retail interiors, ateliers or corporate environments where branding and material harmony are essential.
In a jewelry context such as Patros Gioielli, the possibility to align the cover finish with architectural elements, display furniture or brand colours is a decisive advantage.
Enhanced Protection for High‑Value Workspaces
Beyond aesthetics, Tempo increases the protection of the extinguisher itself. The cover shields the device from:
- Voluntary damage (vandalism)
- Unintentional shocks
- Surface deterioration in high‑traffic or operational areas
For manufacturers handling precious metals and stones, maintaining equipment integrity is critical. A protected extinguisher ensures operational readiness and limits replacement costs.
Integrated Visibility and Regulatory Compliance
Tempo integrates standardised fire extinguisher pictograms, including photoluminescent options to enhance visibility in low‑light conditions. Laser‑cut signage options are available, as well as red finishes when required.
It is important to note that the installation of Tempo does not exempt operators from mandatory wall signage, which can be specified in terms of material, pictogram and fixing system.
Installation Flexibility for Retail and Industrial Settings
Tempo can be wall‑mounted using rear cut‑outs (minimum four fixing points recommended) or installed on the ground with an anchoring base.
For floor installation, the base is mandatory and can be:
- Fixed using adhesive pads (ideal for tiled surfaces)
- Mechanically anchored to limit theft or unauthorised displacement
Optional accessories include:
- CO₂ 2kg holder (2mm steel, epoxy powder coated)
- First aid kit support positioned above the extinguisher
These elements are colour‑coordinated with the support ring, reinforcing visual consistency.
Why Tempo Is Relevant for Luxury and Premium Retail Projects
For architects, retail designers and safety consultants working in high-end environments, Tempo offers:
- Design-driven fire extinguisher protection
- Extensive colour customisation (standard + RAL)
- Durable steel construction with epoxy powder coating
- Compliance with visibility requirements
- Adaptability to wall or floor installation
At Patros Gioielli, where elegance, precision and emotional value define the brand, safety equipment needed to reflect the same level of care. Tempo demonstrates that even mandatory devices can embody design discipline.
Because in refined spaces, safety should not interrupt architecture, it should belong to it.
