VIVIANA VANNUCCI's Company Details
Pontetorto has been producing quality fabrics through high levels of expertise and innovation for over half a century. Since 1952, when it was founded, the mill has been perceived as a leader both locally and in the fashion industry where it has earned great visibility and standing. In 1985, at a time when product diversification was not regarded as the correct product organization to implement, Pontetorto was the first mill in Europe to develop a range of Pile fleece fabrics for activewear. As a matter of fact Tecnopile, the Pontetorto registered trademark for activewear fabrics that helped establish the company reputation worldwide, was the result of ongoing testing and development of brand new materials and processes. Nowadays Pontetorto is therefore a company which has successfully managed to combine tradition, innovation, creativity and superior technical expertise thanks to intuition and high entrepreneurial skills. The most impressive outcome of this perfect blend has been the capacity not only to preserve but even to gain market share in the last challenging years. The Banci family, with the second generation at the helm, is pursuing the same strategy of investment and excellence. The new challenges are set by the health safety and workwear sectors where the company is now focusing and allocating a lot of resources including a state of the art certified testing laboratory. Pontetorto is also aware of all the environmental issues and their sustainability. The company with its typical forward attitude is highly engaged in the protection of the environment: at this purpose a photovoltaic panel system installed at the plant will make Pontetorto 95% self sufficient energy-wise. At the same time it is now a standard practice to use in the production process low-impact chemicals of the last generation. The main markets which take up to two thirds of the production are Germany, Great Britain, France, Japan, United States and the former Soviet States.
