BUDMA 2023: 31st edition

Summer, a time when you crave lightness, happiness and colour even in the workplace. If this seems impossible, it's because you haven't had a chance to discover the Kapriol Summer Collection 2023 yet! A line that seeks to transfer  into garments the dynamism and liveliness that characterise summer.

With only a few days to the end of the event, we can say that we consider the first edition of the International Hardware Fair Italy a very successful event. The large turnout, the high profile of the exhibiting companies and the public that visited the fair, especially on Friday, have made the Italian edition an event to be noted for the coming years.

Imagine having a work tool that is comfortable to hold, simple to use, precise in the operational phase, durable over time and, last but not least, beautiful to look at.

We are proud to announce the renewal of the collaboration between Kapriol and AS Saint-Étienne for the 2025/2026 football season. After an exciting first year, we will once again stand alongside Les Verts, a historic name in French football, now competing in Ligue 2 with renewed energy and the ambition to climb back to the Ligue 1. Supporting a team like AS Saint-Étienne means sharing common values : belief in daily effort, team spirit, determination, and the desire to constantly improve. These are the same principles that guide every Kapriol project — from the construction site to the playing field.

Can a diamond not only be beautiful but also functional? At Kapriol yes, and the Power Tools line proves it, with diamond and abrasive blades that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also impeccable in use. Capable of making perfect cuts, thanks to the excellent technology specially selected to achieve optimum performance, what also sets them apart is their ability to guarantee complete worker safety during operations.

Environmental sustainability also passes through the production of garments made from recycled fabrics. From this need, EARTH is born, the first Kapriol clothing line made entirely from recycled yarns and accessories. This Capsule Collection, consisting of four garments, has been a great success since its presentation last autumn.

Going into a shop and buying a garment is a process that has speeded up exponentially over time, thanks to modernity which has made everything faster and immediately at hand. Sometimes all it takes is a click to get the desired product in a flash, and transport logistics has become so efficient as to make it possible for the order to arrive in just a few days.

Since Kapriol met Thermore, you can stop putting cold and uncomfortable in the same sentence. In contexts where high-performance materials are required, Thermore answers the call, giving clothing features of comfort, lightness and resistance. And we at Kapriol know it well, having verified it first hand.

We know that prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays poses a risk to skin health, and those who regularly work outdoors are particularly susceptible. To mitigate this risk, it is essential to use personal protective equipment (PPE) that includes technical clothing with certified shielding properties. For this reason, Kapriol has decided to add the new TROPIC trousers with UPF50+ protection to its product range. Let's take a closer look at what we are talking about: UV rays, in particular UVA and UVB components, are responsible for skin damage, which is why wearing protective clothing is the ideal choice. The effectiveness of a fabric against UV radiation is measured by the Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF), according to international standards.

Kapriol proposes itself to the world of drywall and wood sanding with a new line of four machines with excellent performance. Three wall sanders, two of which with a telescopic handle, and an orbital wood sander, to satisfy most market needs. The top product in the line is the KSWB 400 wall sander for drywall, which, like the KOSB 350 orbital sander, is equipped with a brushless electric motor - Brushless technology - that guarantees more power, longer service life and greater manoeuvrability thanks to its low weight.
