A never-ending discovery
About us
For 50 years now, we have been turning fibers into knitted fabrics, which then become garments, as well as many other products, using various knitting and enhancing techniques. Sherpa effects, eco-fur, boiled wool, knitwear effects and needled fabrics are just a few of our products and services.
We still firmly believe research, innovation, sustainability and quality make us special - and keep fueling our desire to improve as people and companies.
We have always (and always will) strived to increase Prato's know-how and growth.
This approach has allowed us to obtain numerous certifications and recognitions for the genuineness of our products, as well as for the respect for the environment and the final consumers.

History
"There is never an end to creativity, innovation and discovery."
If we have made it this far, we certainly owe it to our “Tuscan DNA”. After all, it’s always a bit of a gamble in the industry. Still, one thing we know is that the passion and commitment you invest in an entrepreneurial adventure are always proportional to the joy you get. And we don’t mind the hard work, as they say, “no pain, no gain!”
If we have come this far, it’s because there is no end to discovery, innovation and creativity. If well nurtured, these are powerful tools, just like the technology that helps us be more efficient, sustainable and performing.
At Furpile Idea, we look far ahead, love to work together, and create only the best, yet, we always remember where we come from: humble artisans who love fabrics.
