DASSAUD FILS Cutlery, French professional excellence.
Founded in 1986, our company located in the heart of beautiful Auvergne, birthplace of the French cutlery tradition, had as its main activity the subcontracting of cutlery as well as the maintenance of cutting tools for the rubber industry.
From the 1990s,
we became interested in the sector of the
food processing industry
by manufacturing blades for automatic machines in the meat sector. Following this, we launched
a range of professional knives
that we market directly to French user companies. This choice allowed us to become
a major player
in the national market and to always innovate.
Pioneering and responsive, we offer several ranges of
high quality
products, mainly focused on hygiene, safety, and material yield.
