Bongio

Bongio (Bongio Rubinetterie) is an Italian faucet manufacturer, founded in 1936 by Mario Bongio in Alzo di Pella — a municipality on the shores of Lake Orta (Novara), the historic industrial district of Italian sanitary fittings. Mario Bongio combined brass craftsmanship with the ambition to conceive faucets as complete design projects: "Someone calls tap what for us every time is a project." The use of brass, Murano glass in collaboration with Venetian glassmakers and crystal gave the brand a singular character from the outset. The company survived the Second World War and expanded in the post-war period. Today his son Antonio Bongio leads the company; the third generation is represented by Grazia and Alessandra Bongio. The manufacturing focus remains in Alzo di Pella. An in-house electroplating and coating department ensures control over surfaces and finishing.

Product portfolio: washbasin mixers, bath fillers and deck units, shower mixers, kitchen mixers, shower systems, accessories, kitchen range (Bongiocasa). Recognised collections: Acquaviva (iconic, design collaboration Antonio Bongio + Marco Poletti + Roberto Niccolai, concept 2006), Impero, Time 2020, Wellness, Moon (ADI Design Excellence 1998/2012, Marco Poletti). Awards: Imprese Vincenti 2021 (Intesa Sanpaolo, third edition). Materials: brass (chrome, gold, brushed, nickel, bronze, copper), Murano glass, crystal, Swarovski crystals (selected editions). Market presence: international presence in high-quality showrooms worldwide.

For architects and bathroom designers seeking singularly positioned, sculpturally designed premium faucets from the historic fittings district of Lake Orta, Bongio is the most consistent Made-in-Italy alternative to the major design faucet brands — with nearly 90 years of history, in-house electroplating expertise and a product philosophy that explicitly treats the faucet as a work of art.
