Acting ethical and responsible, respecting people and environment, is the basis of every industrial choice in our Company. A careful research and a strong partnership with the major players on the market are leading us to an increasingly use of recycled and biodegradable raw materials. We are investing more and more energy in obtaining international certifications for all our production processes, with an overview to the sustainability. The growing interest towards a “green policy” in the fashion system enhances our efforts and encourages us to invest always more resources in our sustainable Made in Italy production.
