Cappelli S.A. was an Italian company making plates, film and cameras.

History

Cappelli S.A. was established in 1885 in Milano, Italy, by Michele Cappelli. The company produced only sensitive materials until the end of 1st World War, when it started producing also some simple box cameras.

After the death of Michele Cappelli (30 January 1935) the company was taken-over by Ferrania and took the name "Fabbriche Riunite Cappelli e Ferrania". In 1938 the name Cappelli was dropped from the company name and so definitively disappeared.
