The key to UNIVER’s production: combining quality, price and delivery
successfully, to compete with Chinese products.
A winning bet.
INSPIRED FOR TUBE Stampings
CM601: Cutting two bars simultaneously.
Based at Gussago in the Italian province of Brescia,
Univers produces valves, flanges and turned
parts in brass. A member of the Bonomi Group,
based in Lumezzane, founded in 1901, it now employs
over 230 people and last year’s turnover exceeded
€70 million.
Other Group members include famous international
companies such as Rubinetterie Bresciane
(RB), Valbia and Vapres. The group specialises
in the production of taps, and ball valves in brass
and steel for water, gas and pneumatic applications
for the building, civil engineering and industrial
sectors. Univers’s production capacity
and high technological capability are used both
within the group and for sub-contracting. Univers
produces all forms of small turned parts and fittings
to customer specification, particularly for the
brass stampings sector, where they have a vast
amount of market experience.
When competing directly with low-value products
from Asia, you cannot make mistakes. The continuing
success of Univers Srl, clearly demonstrates
that aggressive competition, from cheap-labour
countries, can be met most effectively by long-term
strategies, technological investment and a demonic
attention to the right combination of quality, price
and delivery in a mature marketplace.
3000 stampings per hour
Remaining highly competitive with low value products
is a winner for Univers thanks to intense and
continual investment in high technology and automatic
production lines covering every aspect
of their production process. From tube to bar, from
cold stamping to deburring, from metalworking
to finishing.
