LEATHERTEX
Leathertex has conquered the experimental textile track for more than forty years thanks to the pioneering and bold spirit of Francesco Favini. Favini pushed beyond the standard of the textile industry during the 1970’s and did not let Prato production limit his wool fabrics. From then on, a lot has changed but the foundations remain the same. There is a common enthusiasm, the desire to expand and grow, and the key objective to please the customer.
Flocked, coated and resin finished fabrics were vanguard fabrics in the 1970’s. Today, because of diversification high tech productions are now possible at Leathertex.
Today, the mill is well known because of its superb production of the highest quality of imitation leather. The imitation leather is produced in many variations with unique looks, feel, colors and thickness.
