wordwide as leader in high quality cotton yarns.

Q500

Emilcotoni created the finest cotton on earth, unique for strenght, structure and lightness.

The raw material used is a special blend of Extra long staple cottons made expecially by Emilcotoni and named "Top blended Cotton" to spin the finest

cotton available.One kg of this cotton contains 500 km of yarn. This means that with one kg of

it you can link Milan and Rome together.

Sea Island CottonChoosen by the English Crown as "the" cotton, the West Indian Sea Island Cotton is

doubtless the best cotton in the world.The real West Indian Sea Island cotton, named in Latin “Gossypium Barbadense”,

grows only in the best climatic conditions and it is cultivated only in the British West Indies.

The West Indian Sea Island cotton, after being handpicked, is skilfully processed. This rare and expensive raw material is made by the longest cotton fibres available.Furthermore this cotton has the finest existing micronaire ranging around 3,00 and

giving it its characteristic resistance, silky and shiny look.A sharp control system and a strong net of commercial partners guarantee the full

authenticity of this rare and precious material.W.I.S.I.C.A. (West Indian Sea Island Cotton Association) controls on the premises

very harvest kg and supplies its certificate of authenticity.

Q380"Sottile Emozione", thin emotion. The original idea that

led to Q 500.Using the longest fibres available with the COM4 compact

spinning system and a special twisting technology, we create a yarn with exceptional resistance, strenght and

structure.This yarn belongs to the Q and Wear family and, also if a

100% cotton, it behaves like a cotton/elastic blend making it suitable to both flat and seamless knitting machines.

Giza 45Quality, brightness, high resistance, extra long and

superfine fibres. Its rarity made him famous among the cottons from Egypt.

The raw material used by Emilcotoni to produce its Giza 45 come exclusively from selected Egyptian Giza 45 bales. This fiber, known as the kind of Egyptian cotton is hand

picked and then spun with special machines: exceptional lenght and brightness (very similar to silk) give to this yarn the handfeel and look of a top quality product.

SuvinA true rarity. The Indian Suvin is an extra long staple cotton

with an extremely long and fine fiber.Together with the West Indian Sea Island Cotton and the

Egyptian Giza 45, the Indian Suvin is considered one of the best cottons in the world .

The origin of this yarn is the breeding of the famous Gossypium barbedense in India in the late thirties but only in 1971, after countless hybridations, the Indian Suvin was born

from the crossing between the Sujata and the SIV 35 qualities.

SuperPiumaSelected from the best ELS fibers, this cotton is what the

Egyptians called the white gold.Some years ago, Emilcotoni and an important egyptian

cotton grower undertook the challenge of creating a very high quality cotton and the result is Superpiuma.

In a small area of the Nile's delta a special quality of cotton with the characteristic of Giza 45 and Suvin is

grown on behalf of Emilcotoni; the result of this fields is the raw material that lies inside our Superpiuma .

Supima SuperwashSupima Superwash is a top quality american cotton

engineered by Emilcotoni to have an extraordinary resistance to water.

A cotton with extreme performances, this is what Emilcotoni's Superwash is.

It is born from an extra long staple Supima Cotton (just the 3% of the total Supima production) grown in Texas, Arizona

and California.These materials are spun with particular machines and techniques, resulting in a yarn highly resistant to water.

constant level making garments very confortable and dry.Emilcotoni's Active is an innovative yarn that produces high

frequency long infrared rays at a temperature between 34 and 37 degrees.

The ceramic micro parts ensembled in Active absorb energy and give it back to the body as heat: this is generated by water

molecules of our body that produce and exchange heat with the fabric.

The result is a pleasant sensation of dryness and confort all over the body.
