To find the origins of FRAP we have to go back a long time, to 1932, to the beginnings of motorisation in Italy.Aldo Piatti started the design and production of pins and ball joints in Piossasco, a few steps from the current headquarters of FRAP. During the war, part of the production of O.M. Sant'Ambrogio transferred here to escape the bombs, and this gave rise to a great friendship between the head of the O.M. Sant'Ambrogio, Mr. Manzone, and Aldo Piatti.In 1947 they entered into partnership together, also bringing Mr. Patrucco along with them and creating the company P.M.P.
