Kong

KONG-Bonaiti è un'azienda italiana, antica ma con tecnologie d'avanguardia, leader nella produzione di moschettoni e attrezzi per la sicurezza, usati in alpinismo, soccorso, speleologia, nautica e lavori in quota. La KONG s.p.a. ha iniziato la propria attività - dove è ora - nel 1977, ma le sua storia è molto più antica, avendo origine da un'officina meccanica che nel 1830 Giuseppe Bonaiti aveva avviato vicino a Lecco - sul Lago di Como - con dotazioni ingegneristiche inusuali per quei tempi.In quello stabilimento, insieme ad altre merci, iniziò la produzione dei moschettoni che ha portato la Bonaiti ad essere nota in tutto il mondo.Nel 1977, nel contesto di un'importante ristrutturazione, l'azienda ha assunto il nome KONG e, con un capitale di 2 milioni di Euro, si è insediata nel nuovo stabilimento di Monte Marenzo, con 10.000 mq. coperti, un organico di circa 70 dipendenti, ed impianti studiati per alti volumi produttivi combinati con una rigorosa attenzione per la sicurezza.KONG-Bonaiti is an old, but technologically advanced, Italian company, leader in the production of carabiners and a lot of other tools used for safety in climbing, rescue, caving, yachting and work at height. KONG s.p.a. started its production - where it is now - during 1977, but its history is much older, having rise in a mechanical workshop that Giuseppe Bonaiti set up in 1830 around Lecco - on Lake Como - with an engineering apparatus that was unusual for those times.In that plant, together with other stuff, started the production of those carabiners which brought world-wide fame to Bonaiti company.In 1977, within the context of a large scale reorganization, the company was named KONG and, with a capital of 2 million Euros, took place in the new factory of Monte Marenzo, with 12.000 sq. yards floor, a staff of about 70 workers, and new machinery in order to achieve higher production rates combined with a leading safety care.
