GROUP
AND HISTORY
The Ghidini Group, of which Ghidini Trafilerie is actively part, has its roots in Lumezzane at the beginning of the 20th century: in fact, in 1929 the Ghidini family was already specialised in the manufacturing of non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass, aluminium and nickel silver.

Ghidini Trafilerie, which is specialised in brass and copper manufacturing, officially commenced business in 1983 when the Ghidini Group took over the production plant and machinery of a historical enterprise established in Lumezzane in 1860.

The company launched a fundamental restructuring and then experienced a significant turning point in 1991 when it added the brass rod to its production, which is now its key activity.
An important growth process has made Ghidini Trafilerie one of the major players in its sector. The reference market is Italy but the company exports directly and indirectly to every part of the world. The group’s network of companies is now engaged in a range of activities such as the production of copper tube, wire and rope, brass rod, and brass and plastic hydraulic equipment for the plumbing industry. The entrepreneurial spirit that has distinguished the founder of the group, Commendator Giampietro Ghidini, is kept alive by the new generations committed to carrying on his industrial initiatives.
