The Ascaso company was founded in Barcelona in 1962. While the focus was initially on the production of accessories for coffee machines, Ascaso has since been able to establish a renowned name for itself in the production of portafilter machines and coffee grinders. Frahling lovers appreciate the Spanish espresso machines not only for their eye-catching retro design, but also for their user-friendly operability and smart innovations. The portafilter machines are developed in two main lines: DREAM, characteristically curved shapes in many colors and STEEL, the industrial design line with corners and edges. Ascaso currently has facilities with a surface area of over 4,000 m², employs 50 people and has a presence in over 95 countries. Ascaso designs and manufactures the complete range of products in Barcelona.
