The Breda Institute was born in 1922 following an intuition of Ernesto Breda, who set himself the goal of creating a strong industry based on solid scientific foundations.
After years of collaboration, the Breda Institute was acquired by the Forgital group in 1998, becoming an international technical point of reference for laboratory and engineering activities.
