In the 1940s, Manteco began repurposing surplus military goods from post-war Italy, transforming unusable items like blankets and clothing into valuable and premium recycled wool yarns. Founder Enzo Anacleto Mantellassi pioneered a chemical-free process in Prato, where mechanical and wet techniques are still used today. The result is a range of undyed wool colors through the Recype® process, and luxurious fabrics with different weaves and finishes, all made with the next-generation Recycled Wool, MWool®—the fabric used in our Recycled Wool Work Jacket.
Cheers to a fashion industry that's cleaner, fairer, and keeps things in circulation.
