Our Company really has deep roots; the period in which our founder Francesco recorded the " Ditta Ponchiardi" to the register of the Chamber of Commerce of Brescia dates back, in fact, to 1925.

The work culture was already very well-rooted in the Valley of Lumezzane and Grandpa Francesco could immediately count on the excellent level of the co-workers with whom he started the experience that today, is managed by the third generation, always in the hands of the Ponchiardi Family.

At the beginning of the 50s our Founders could begin to count on the collaboration of his son Angelo, and that helped, with no doubt, with the launch of the Company in the Olimpo of manufacturers of sanitary fittings.

But it is with the 60s that, in full economical boom, the Company begins the process of growth that, among the other results, allowed to get, in 1971, the Lombardy Quality Award as “Favourite Traps Manufacturers Company" as the result of a survey on the Italian Press. Always in those years, it consolidates the propensity to export, and AIPE (Italian Association for the Promotion of Export) awarded the Company with the "Honour Plate, for the level reached in advanced manufacturing and technology and for the contribute to the increase of exportations”

Internal market and export are, in the 80s, constants that helped first the consolidation, then the development and expanding of the Company’s activities, also thanks to the constant upgrades in technology.

Over the 90s new forces arrive to give more power to Angelo that, with Francesco and Marco, form the current Management Team.
