More than 60 years ago, the brothers Ricardo and Juan Piqueras founded Industrias Piqueras.The piston system patented by the Piqueras brothers (Piqueras Hermanos) is the true origin of the mass production of PIHER tools.

In the 90's the founders' children continued with the traditional manufacturing values of Industrias Piqueras. At the same time, they internationalized the company exporting all over the world and completing the catalogue with the inclusion of more clamping tools.

Today the PIHER factory is still linked to the region where it began, La Rioja, and to the family values with which it was founded. PIHER has maintained the care for traditional tool manufacturing along with the development of new patents and continual innovation that has characterized it since its very beginnings.

Our products are well known for their sturdiness, efficiency and versatility. PIHER has become the first choice in the professional sector when both reliability and durability are essential. Thanks to our R & D department, we continually develop new tool designs and improvements to our classic tools which we immediately implement in our factory.

B.U.P. Utensili was founded in Pesaro, Italy, in 1968 and following the expansion of the local furniture manufacturers started their own production of woodworking tools. Through hard work and determination meant that the company soon increased its’ output and were able to take on staff and to develop its’ technology so that it could corner a larger share of the local market. In 1978 the company moved into new premises and became a ‘full-blown’ industry, with 1,300 square metres and 15 factory workers. After ten years in the business there was a real boom: sales increased and the market could now be expanded.

Rather than simply working with local companies, as they had done in the beginning, they began to sell to the rest of Italy and abroad. The high quality products were very much in demand: B.U.P. Utensili soon became an important point of reference for many companies.

Today, the technology which is used to make tools, takes advantage of state-of-the-art equipment. First it is designed and plotted on computers using the graphics software CAD and CAD/CAM. This makes it possible to work on the designs in 3D and the graphic design of the cutter can be directly transmitted to the computer numerically controlled work stations which can then produce high quality products.

Through continued investment in state-of-the-art production facilities, B.U.P. Utensili is able to manufacture any tool for processing solid timber or man-made board either with carbide tips, disposable knives or Polycrystalline Diamond.

Disposable knives are made using two automatic profile machines with an automatic feeder. They have four different diamond wheels which can grind down the edges, finish, sharpen, and give a superior finish to the raw tungsten carbide material. So that almost any type of shape is possible.

The production includes a wide range of standard tools and also an increasing number of special products made to customer specifications and with a fast delivery time. The work cycle is completed by carrying out careful tests on the tool to check its precision: the tool is finally tested on the material to guarantee its’ high quality.
