F.lli Razeto & Casareto, the “high-end locksmithing” sets sail
There are companies that tell their story and companies that are part of it, F.lli Razeto & Casareto Spa is certainly a company that is part of it, rooted in the territory of Sori, a picturesque fishing village located in the Ligurian Riviera of Levante, about 15 kilometers from Genoa, for over 100 years, designs and produces customizable components and accessories for cruise ships and yachts, gaining over the years a leadership position at the international level.
The company is an official supplier to the main shipyards Italian and international, its products are installed on both private vessels and large cruise and cargo ships, today despite its unbreakable bond with the territory, it is appreciated and known worldwide for its quality and innovation.
Strengths and Operational Sector
Among its most notable innovations are the LED Light Handles (OSSH – Open Safety Security Hardware) with integrated lighting in the handles for safety on board and emergency or home automation indication. With a flashing red light, it signals any alert states, while the strong white light is functional in case of blackout, to illuminate cabins and corridors.
Surfaces and handles treated with silver ion technologies for high-traffic environments or naval hygiene needs, leveraging the natural properties of silver ions applied to metal surfaces through nanotechnologies, eliminates and prevents the proliferation of bacteria, fungi, and viruses on the surface of the handles without altering the aesthetic yield or the resistance of the marine finish. Another innovation from F.lli Razeto & Casareto inspired by the scarab is the Freego handle, its design celebrates the remarkable navigation and orientation ability of this sacred insect, revered by the ancient Egyptians as a protective amulet.
F.lli Razeto & Casareto, haute serrurerie is laid bare
The “haute serrurerie” is usually hidden inside doors and what appears on the outside is very little compared to what is concealed behind each single mechanism and how important the mechanics that allow it to function are, a mechanical universe of extraordinary complexity, where security is not a conceptual illusion, but a matter of millimetric tolerances. The sensation of the “mechanism,” the sharp and precise click, is the result of a meticulous study of friction and masses.
In a world where appearance often prevails over substance, the high-security lock represents an opposite philosophy. Haute serrurerie celebrates silent protection: a protection that does not need to flaunt its strength on the outside, because it knows that true power resides in the architecture hidden behind the door panel. For this reason, F.lli Razeto & Casareto has decided to present during the Genoa Boat Show the handles stripped of their external dress made of design and material research and show the true soul of the internal mechanics.
