The three UFS factories are located in Sparone, 50 km north of Turin. We're in the region of Piedmont, on the borders of France and Switzerland, renowned for its car industry, its sweets and cakes, and also for its wonderful scenery, history, culture, food and wine.
Piedmont means "the foot of the mountains", because the mountains indeed rise suddenly from the plain. On one side the Alps, with Europe's highest peaks, on the other the lovely hills of Monferrato and the Langhe; to the east the edge of the great Padan Plain, the natural outlet of the river Po, which lends it its name.

Expansion of production, new research labs, state-of-the-art computerised systems for the management and planning of orders and quality certification are natural and ongoing developments that have strengthened the organisation of workers and their tasks, allowing us to achieve exceptional productivity levels and complete control of the entire process. Several automated warehouses divided by raw material, semi-finished and finished goods, combined with well-organised logistics, guarantee delivery of standard items within 24-48 hours from order confirmation, anywhere in Europe.

Three factories - Sites 1, 2 and 3 - make up the operational area of UFS, with an annual production of over 500,000 tools. Diversification allows us to optimise processes throughout the production cycle: turning, hardening and tempering items, followed by definition of the grooving geometry and the adjustment of tools, which are then PVD coated. Upstream from the manufacturing process is our technical department, which designs the tools in collaboration with the R&D department, with checks and testing at every stage of development.
UFS currently has around one hundred employees, collaborators and agents. A family that has (proudly) grown little by little.

There are 3 operational locations.
In Site 1, in addition to the offices, the production of standard tools and special products that require customized processes is located.
A well-equipped Research and Development laboratory is located in Site 2 where controls of the metallographic processes also take place throughout the product development cycle.
The ovens for plasma coatings (PVD) are also located in this plant.
In Site 3, also intended for the reception of raw materials, the roughed are made; 
The lathes and hardening and tempering ovens are also located here.
