Ferrino S.p.A. is an Italian tents, outdoor accessories and clothing manufacturer, founded in Turin by Cesare Ferrino in 1870.[1] The company's product range includes tents and snowshoes.[2]

Ferrino tents have been tested at high altitudes, including Monte Rosa and Mont Blanc in the Alps.[3]

For years Ferrino has supplied equipment to some associations including the Department of Civil Protection, the Red Cross, Doctors without Borders, Emergency and the National Alpine and Speleological Rescue Corps.[4]

In January 2008, one of the major manufacturers of snowshoes, Baldas, came under the Ferrino brand.
