Prato, synonym of the wool culture, home to companies who transmit their values to the world.
Like the company created in 1880 by Querci brothers, founding members of the Unione Industriale di Prato (Prato manufacturers Association) and which, since 1947, with the brandname Lanificio dell'Olivo, has specialized in the production of unique yarns.
In the mid Fifties we specialized also in fancy yarns, using innovative technologies, and rapidly becoming a reference point for those who seek a valuable product.

Thanks to our experience, particularly that of the last twenty years, the Lanificio dell'Olivo has become the leading manufacturer of yarns for woven and knit fabrics. Yarns with character, created with new methods of twisting, born of an expert combination of automation and manual craftsmanship.

Unique yarns, because at the Lanificio dell'Olivo even the most accurate and powerful computerized machines are still operated with the skillful instinct of the craftsman.
