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.
