About us
Textile creations from 1902
Mantero is a family owned textile company founded in 1902, in Como, by Riccardo Mantero.
For more than a century, Mantero has been the leader in the creation, production and distribution of men and women's luxury textile fabrics and accessories. It has a craft history which has been handed down for four generations.
The product’s creation is carried out entirely at the Como headquarters in Italy. Arts and professional skills coexist - design, weaving, traditional screen printing, digital printing, finishing, edging and quality control.
Today, Mantero’s 426 employees are the real company’s asset and use the knowledge developed and handed down over the years to different generations.
