About KUPA
Robert Upshaw and Kito Ochi founded KUPA in 1984 after realizing the electric file used in the dental industry could be adopted for the nail industry as well. KUPA is an acronym, combining the names Kito, Upshaw, and Associates. The KUPA name is now synonymous with high-quality electric nail filing equipment. KUPA now carries over 13 different E-file models and is known for innovation in nail technology. KUPA released the first E-files with Bluetooth capability, portability, and customizable options. KUPA has expanded from being an E-file brand to being a hub for educational videos and tools for the Nail Professional.
