We personally select the best fibre in southern Peru, in renowned areas such as Arequipa and Ayacucho. The constant presence in the area guarantees excellent quality, respect for the environment and right conditions for the campesinos.

We are committed to strengthening the bond with local communities, creating a traceable supply chain and ensuring respect for animal welfare. We support the Andean populations and consolidate an ethical and sustainable production model.

Working vicuña requires extraordinary skill: its very fine fibre (12 microns) requires meticulous processes to preserve its unique qualities. We are one of the very few companies in the world with the expertise necessary to transform it into extraordinary fabrics and clothing, keeping its essence intact.

Thanks to rigorous conservation measures, the vicuña population has risen to around 550,000 individuals.

The protection of the vicuña is regulated by national laws and international agreements, such as the Convention of
Washington (CITES), ensuring sustainable management of the species.

Fibre represents a source of essential income for the Andean communities, who through collaborations with companies like Piacenza 1733, receive fair compensation and keep their traditions alive.
