The story of ZAHORANSKY began in 1902 in Todtnau, in the southern Black Forest, where Anton Zahoransky developed the first machines to automate the brush-making process. Since those early days of inventive vision, the company has evolved from a local workshop into the global market leader for the brush and broom industry. This legacy of engineering excellence continues to drive the company today, ensuring that customers benefit from over 120 years of specialized experience and technical progress.
Building on its longstanding expertise in brush and broom manufacturing, the group develops advanced solutions for this core industry. At the same time, ZAHORANSKY is a cutting-edge provider of mold making and automation technologies. With this combination, the company serves not only the brush sector but also a wide range of industries, including medical technology, pharmaceuticals, and other specialized fields.
Today, ZAHORANSKY delivers high-performance machinery and tailored systems across four core business sectors: PersonalCare, HomeCare, Industrial Applications and HealthCare Solutions. By specializing in these distinct areas, the company serves market-leading manufacturers of oral care and cosmetic products, producers of household and industrial brushes as well as pharmaceutical companies worldwide.
To provide a truly comprehensive manufacturing approach, ZAHORANSKY integrates its deep-rooted technological expertise into its core equipment. This allows for the creation of seamless, highly efficient production lines that go beyond simple tufting to offer complete system technology. As a specialized equipment manufacturer, the company prides itself on networked thinking and the high flexibility required to meet the evolving demands of the global marketplace.
With a strong international presence, ZAHORANSKY operates locations in Germany, Spain, Brazil, China, India, Japan, and the USA.
