A natural textile made with woven leaves, high-tech designs and the Greenpeace Detoxcommitment. Lanfranchi Spa new positioning marks a step forward in combining the power of creativity and the innovation DNA with a responsible mission for the future.

Lanfranchi Spa, world leader in the design and production of zips, announces a step forward to show how sustainable standards add value to an established know-how and a creativity-driven approach.

The new vision highlights a responsible path and a mission that led the company to become a referring point for fashion brands and professionals that aim to be innovative and creative always keeping responsibility in mind. “We believe that sustainability and innovation are the keys for a market competitive and contemporary offer” says Gaetano Lanfranchi, CEO of Lanfranchi Spa .

Two projects reflect the new positioning:

• The company teamed with emerging talent Valeria Di Cerce, in cooperation withNABA (Nuova Accademia delle Belle Arti),  supplying a custom-designed zip, with a band made of organic cotton and Newlife™,  for her WoodRobes fashion collection. The designer managed to “weave a forest into a textile” without any spell but by working with fallen leaves, flowers, branches and an especially developed joint process system.

• Lanfranchi Spa S/S 2017 collection: the new series range from oversized zips with a more “aggressive” look to super-light designs for more “minimal” fashion solutions. The almost “aggressive” design is not just about style but also about resistance and high-tech performance. The zips come in different colours with a new matte finishing as well as in a natural version with a transparent varnishing.

Lanfranchi’s zips are Oeko-Tex certified for over 15 years .
