About Us
The Brera family's passion and commitment to the mechanics and components of household appliances was born in the first part of the 20th century.
Since then Brera hinges has been designing and manufacturing components for household appliances with the continuous commitment of three generations of the family.
Starting from the 1930s, the first components were produced and the design of hinges was developed, from which the first patents were born.
Since then, for almost a century, the activity has continued incessantly with the same attention, the same passion and the same values.
The rich team of engineers with specialized skills and the international connotation allow us to pursue and achieve ambitious and important objectives.
The work philosophy in the past, and more than ever today, is characterized by a continuous and rigorous search for quality and innovation.
This research, supported by the use of the most up-to-date technologies, specific technical preparation and attention to market needs, has allowed us to always be at the forefront and a reference in the sector.
The skills gained over long company experience allow us to provide support to the most important and prestigious global groups in the production of household appliances.
The large number of patents on the products, combined with the constant effort in research and development, are the fundamental elements for promptly responding to the challenges proposed by the market.
The study and attention to the automation of production processes have contributed over the years to defining the path traced by the company while at the same time never losing sight of the flexibility necessary to respond proactively to the challenges proposed by customers.
The growth of the company and the increase in the range of products take place without losing sight of the original prerogative, maintaining freshness and stimulating the growth of young people and skills.
The training, stimulation and loyalty of human resources is an essential element on which company policy has always been based and continues to be based.
Personal growth, the expansion of individual skills, team work and the sharing of objectives represent the best business investments.
