A TRADITION FOR OVER 50 YEARS
March 13, 1968
The company Piero Niccolai founds FASS (Fabbrica Artigiana Scope e Spazzole) in Larciano, in the heart of Tuscany, a land rich in sage, an essential raw material for the brooms of the time. From the beginning, the company stands out for its capacity for innovation: it is among the first in the world to introduce the transition from wood and sage brooms to those in plastic and synthetic fibers, more modern, accessible and performing.
80s-90s
Two sister companies are born: FASS 2, dedicated to the production of painted handles, and Plastic Products, the plant for the molding of plastic components. With these integrations, FASS consolidates a unique industrial model in the sector: the total verticalization of processes, which guarantees quality, control and competitiveness.
2001
FASS is transformed into FASS S.p.A., thanks to the merger of the three companies and the construction of a new factory of 32,000 m². An operation that allows you to optimize the internal organization and enhance the production capacity, with an eye always focused on efficiency and internationalization.
2002
Toscana Non Tessuti (TNT) is born, a company specialized in the production of non-woven fabric, strategic material for mops and cloths. A further step in the path of vertical integration that makes FASS a unique reality in Europe for the number of internalized processes in the domestic cleaning sector.

FASS patents the fixed swivel cap, a design innovation that has since become a symbol of the quality and functionality of our handles.
