Manifattura Bvlgari
A tribute to the values of Made in Italy, the newly expanded Manifattura embodies a deep commitment to innovation, sustainability, and the transmission of savoir-faire.
Expanded from 14,000 to 33,000 m2, Manifattura Bvlgari aims to double production capacity and hire over 500 craftsmen by 2029, investing in the expertise of new generations of talented artisans.
The site will also house the new Scuola Bvlgari, the Maison’s first publicly accessible education center focused on jewelry, complementing the existing Bvlgari Academy for training newly hired artisans. Sustainability is at the heart of the project, which relies on renewable energy sources to ensure the expansion’s operations are substantially carbon neutral.
A Tribute to Made in Italy
A unique space where the ancient art of goldsmithing is revived and perfected day after day, pushing the boundaries of creativity and craftsmanship. Driven by a shared passion for Made in Italy excellence, Manifattura Bvlgari fosters innovation while preserving and passing down a legacy built on passion and expertise.
The City of Gold
As a patron of goldsmithing art, the High Jewelry Maison further strengthens its commitment to Valenza, a place where exceptional craftsmanship has been passed down since the early 19th century. Underscoring Bvlgari's strategic vision of vertical integration, the expansion project ensures complete oversight of the jewelry production process—from raw material sourcing to the final creation—while propelling artisanal tradition into the future.
The Future of Tradition
Manifattura Bvlgari creations come to life in the expert hands of artisans, seamlessly complemented by cutting-edge machinery in a continuous dialogue between tradition and innovation. Nestled in a tranquil green oasis, this manufacturing site is, above all, a tribute to the human factor – the true driving force and inspiration behind it.
A Passion for Education
As the beating heart of the Manifattura, Scuola Bvlgari offers a publicly accessible entry-level course designed to teach the foundations of goldsmithing. Students will inherit traditional techniques and learn to apply them alongside the most innovative methodologies.
A Sustainable Approach
The new site has been designed with a fully sustainable approach, prioritizing energy efficiency to significantly reduce its environmental footprint while preserving the surrounding territory and its biodiversity. The factory expansion incorporates geothermal and photovoltaic systems that cover up to 50% of the facility’s energy needs, with the remainder supplied by 100% renewable energy sources.
Crafting Iconicity
Ancient savoir-faire perpetuated through innovative techniques and propelled into the future. And an obsession with excellence above all. At Bvlgari, the journey from raw materials to timeless masterpieces is an art in its own right.
A Hub of Excellence
From its LEED Gold-certified infrastructure (the world’s most rigorous green building rating system) to biodiversity initiatives like reforestation, from comprehensive employee wellbeing programs to local commitment, Manifattura Bvlgari elevates its role beyond production to a model of integrated sustainability. At this site, craftsmanship, innovation, and social progress advance together toward a holistic vision of luxury where everything and everyone are connected through mutual growth.
