A LONG HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE
Zeca boasts over 90 years of commitment, passion, accountability and innovation spanning over four generations, always with the future in mind. It started in 1929 with a small company selling spares for cars and motorbikes in Rivarolo Canavese, already focused on innovation. Carlo Zerbini and his son Luciano set up an engineering laboratory that changed and inspired the future of their family.
In over 90 years, after a long string of patents, the workshop and laboratory have turned into a company exporting to five continents and meeting the requirements of professionals seeking mechanical perfection and technical innovation, as well as the unique Italian design.
