The Czech company KOVAP NÁCHOD is a world-renowned manufacturer of sheet metal toys with a tradition dating back to 1946. The emphasis in all Kovap products is on handmade production, precise design and long life. Its artisanal products also boast a long-standing Safe Toy Certificate. The company was founded in Semily as a family business by the Sedlák brothers. In the more than seven decades of its existence, a number of toys, which still belong to the childhood memories of most of us, have been created under this brand. Over time, sheet metal was accompanied by plastics, replacing some of the sheet metal components. In the 1990s, however, plastics were again abandoned and the company returned completely to sheet metal production. The year 2019 was a breakthrough year for Kovap in many ways. In the middle of the year, the company changed ownership, and work began on restructuring and modernising its production technologies. Another goal was to return production to the hands of those for whom it was originally intended - children. Therefore, in 2020, the companyteamed up with the designers of the Czech-Belgian studio gentle & more and started work on a new type of tractor designed for preschool and younger school children.
