the entire production cycle is zero km, all in our Prato district, thanks to the collaboration we have established with expert artisans and highly qualified companiesWhich is the most innovative product of your Autumn/Winter 22-23 collection?
For the new Autumn/Winter 22-23 season we have created Tarallo Rec, which is the sustainable version of our iconic product. Also in this case, the entire production cycle is zero km, all in our Prato district, thanks to the collaboration we have established with expert artisans and highly qualified companies. Our new products can be summed up by three fundamental pillars: Made-in-Italy, process integration and supplier quality control.
What characteristics make Tarallo Rec innovative?
Tarallo Rec is our flagship product for sustainability. The fabric is made of polyester recycled from plastic bottles. This product has been designed to respect the environment and nature. We have always believed that sustainability and technology are two sides of the same coin. In recent years we have invested heavily in solutions that enable us to produce with a minimal carbon footprint.
This explains the rationale behind our
decision to increasingly use recycled fibers,
such as wool, cotton, polyester and
polyamide, which we have been using for our GRS-labelled products.
Do you have a dedicated communication campaign?
We are currently working on a targeted communication campaign for Tarallo Rec. To do this, we will implement the most suitable communication channels to enable us to primarily emphasize the characteristics of sustainability.
To which buyer are these products addressed?
Tarallo Rec targets all those clothing manufacturers that produce elegant and informal collections. Tarallo Rec is suitable both for daywear and eveningwear, for the office, for an aperitif or an important dinner. The end result is a minimalist, glamorous look, which is never excessive and withstands the fashion trends.
