Know-how

With over 20 years of experience in the textile sector, we have advanced knowledge of industrial washing, especially in the denim field and sustainable treatments.
Our strength lies in merging traditional dyeing with technological innovation, experimenting with new materials and processes.
We also rely on a proprietary archive of over 4,000 garments preserved in our Atelier (vintage, experimental, prototypes, and fashion archive), cult objects, color swatches, and photography, offering tangible inspiration and creative vision to projects.

We believe in long-term collaboration, based on an experiential and practical approach. We provide tutoring and guidance to laundries, including on-site sessions, trend analysis, and R&D support at every stage of development for: dyes, washes, and treatments aimed at conscious, low-impact production.
We actively involve creative, technical, and commercial departments to ensure consistency, innovation, and sustainability in treatments—offering a wide spectrum of eco-solutions for future clients.
