Our Heritage
The facility was established in 1984 in the heart of the Valbormida
as a specialized center for the development and production of braking systems. Over the following years, production capacity expanded, manufacturing lines were upgraded, engineering expertise was strengthened, and vertical integration across processes was consolidated.
On October 1, 2025, with the entry into a new industrial group, Zendra Systems S.p.A. was formed: a renewed organization in terms of governance, vision, and strategy, built on a solid heritage and a clear technological vocation.
