Manteco S.p.A.
Prato, Italy Est. 1943-01-01
Manteco is a multigenerational family company with over 75 years of experience in outerwear fabrics. In the aftermath of World War 2 Italy there was a scarcity in virgin fabrics and excessive amounts of decommissioned military textiles. Enzo Anacleto Mantellassi, Manteco's founder, purchased a ruined mill and repurposed it to mechanically recycle old fabrics into new yarns. Today, Manteco is one of the worlds most renowned weavers of regenerated wool fabrics and a pioneer in responsible textile manufacturing. Manteco source our fiber-to-fiber recycled wool from nearby Italian sorting and shredding facilities, before the regenerated raw material goes into their fully owned operations for carding, spinning and weaving.

How to take care of wool

Most of us have probably ruined a sweater or two in our garment care career and caring for wool has a bad rep for being a hassle. We respectfully disagree. Wool care is misunderstood. In general, wool garments require much less care, the garment practically takes care of itself because of the inherent qualities of wool. Sure, if you do need to wash the whole piece, it needs some extra attention, but that’s exactly what we’ll guide you through in this section - there’s nothing to fear.
