From its beginnings in 1956, more than half a century ago in the minds of a few artisans in a small workshop to the 100 Mn Euro company with manufacturing facilities in 3 countries and offices in 6 countries today, the story of VRV stands testimony to the values that its promoters have always espoused – Constant development and improvement without letting go of its roots. Over the journey, staying true to this ideal, the company has also been making a conscious choice towards sustainability, making it a practice in every sphere and living up to its commitment to environmental responsibility in myriad ways.

The Indian factory today operates according to the same technology, manufacturing procedures and high quality standards applied in all the plants of the Group.
