An innovative textile solutions provider CM Tessuti and Japanese technology company, 1st Corporation jointly launched their latest innovation, 1st Platinumwool at the latest edition of Milano Unica.
Made in Japan and certified by the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), this fiber boasts an extraordinary fineness of 14.5 microns, enhancing wool’s natural properties.
IstPlatinumwool retains all the benefits of traditional wool while significantly enhancing them. It is distinguished by superior luster, exceptional softness, high pilling resistance, and enhanced tactile qualities. The materials made from IstPlatinumwool offer exceptional crease resistance, superior odor neutralisation, and a fresh touch, making it suitable for various applications, including knitwear, shirts, and elegant outerwear.
Within this partnership, CM Tessuti handles product development, production of the jersey collection, and distribution of both fabric collections in Europe, the UK, and the US.
Marco and Christian Bozzonetti Rivera, Owners, CM Tessuti, note, the development aims to create a unique synergy that combines Japanese precision with Italian creativity.
Supported by Riccardo Rami Studio, the development of IstPlatinumwool collections was certified by Woolmark for quality. At its best in all variations, this material offers an incredibly soft hand and superior stretch recovery in knits. In jersey fabrics, it achieves unprecedented levels of softness and luster. In shuttle fabrics, it reveals unprecedented versatility, becoming ultra-compact and ideal for water-resistant outerwear that embodies quiet luxury, adds Rami.
