Lanerossi
Former wool mill, Italy.
Lanificio Rossi was the largest Italian wool company at the beginning of the twentieth century, with numerous factories in the Vicenza area. This factory was built for a capacity of 12,000 spindles in 1869. Despite this, due to wrong management choices and financial speculation, the Lanerossi group experienced a period of crisis after the mid-nineteenth century. In 1987 the company was taken over by its competitor Marzotto from nearby Valdagno, who, however, no longer invested in the Lanerossi brand. The various plants were gradually dismantled.
