DND Handles

The story of DND door handles is based on the ancient dedication to crafts and industry prevalent in Val Sabbia, in the province of Brescia. A region with centuries of material know-how, especially in the field of iron and steel, where it is one of the largest European centers. Here in Nozza, in 1968, the company Fmn Martinelli was founded under the guidance of Angelo Martinelli, a man of great expertise with a passion for the production of door handles, door knobs and door hammers of the highest quality. Over time, the company has developed with a focus on development and growth in production, updating its processes and specializing in machining and finishing new, different metals for the manufacture of door handles, including brass, zamak and aluminum. Today, the company is run under the name Dnd by Vilma Martinelli together with her children Pietro and Simona, who have been important reference speakers and support for many years now. Their ambitious goal is to create a hub for ideas that combine extensive production experience with the creativity of architects and designers of great value, specifically engaged in product design. Designers, craftsmen and suppliers are an active, precious part of DND's identity, which, as a historical forging of production, looks to the present and the future with optimism: a solid corporate and territorial mission in service of Italian and international contemporary design.
