Strengths
A family business
Vergnano is based in Italy, with its production facilities located in Chieri (TO), but is also geared towards the international market, with operations in over 30 countries worldwide.
Vergnano is a family-run organisation that does not believe in profit at any cost. This allows for short decision-making processes, rapid response times, as well as flexibility and readiness in the event changes are requested over the course of the project. Moreover, the family nature of the business allows Vergnano to focus on client needs, delivering precise and customised solutions.

Offering
Vergnano produces taps, hobs, end mills, thread mills, drill bits, tapping attachments and dies, thus offering a comprehensive range of tapping, hobbing and precision milling solutions to satisfy all client needs. Taps are the flagship product, available as standard tools (60% of production) and special tools (40% of production).
Vebro, specialising in the production of broaches, was founded by Vergnano to complete its offering, and has been part of the Group for over 50 years.
Research and development
Vergnano invests about 10-15% of its annual turnover in new technologies. The pursuit of innovative solutions, coupled with strict and continuous monitoring of processes and products ensures consistently high levels of quality. And it is precisely these high standards of performance that have earned the company ISO 9001 certification.
At Vergnano, investment in research translates into the continual optimisation of production processes and the use of increasingly high-performance materials. This is demonstrated by the development – in partnership with Oerlikon Balzers – of new tap coatings and the use of innovative materials, made possible by the company’s in-house heat treatment.

Production
Production, as we know, depends on the machinery fleet, and Vergnano is always on the cutting edge of technology, regularly upgrading its equipment. Vergnano uses only latest-generation machine tools, such as HiPiMs coating furnaces, high-precision grinding machines and lathes for “all-in-one” machining, which dramatically cut down delivery times.
Production is also about people, who, at Vergnano, are all specialised and highly qualified. The corporate team’s hob re-sharpening and re-coating service, which involves machining the tool until it is as good as new, is just one example.
