LANIFICIO LEO

Lanificio Leo

Lanificio Leo is the oldest textile factory in Calabria. Founded in 1873 by Antonio Leo, it is now a modern design center where a monumental park of historic machinery is combined with the latest generation of technologies, a perfect balance between innovation and traditional know-how. The wool factory is now managed by Emilio Salvatore Leo, the fourth generation of the founding family. The recovery and valorization of the technological heritage and the skills of traditional know-how are at the heart of the establishment of the company museum. Every day at Lanificio Leo, the unique value of the relationship between the heritage of Made in Italy and the culture of design is transformed into a product. Before becoming textile objects, the products made at Lanificio Leo are real narrative spaces that absorb and interpret the ideas and languages ​​of contemporary designers.
