The company is specialized in silk thread twisting, which has been a family business tradition since the beginning of the 20th century (1900). The most important products that Ongetta manufactures are continuous silk yarns, discontinuous silk yarns (schappe, tussah and noil), and a vast range of mixed yarns. Since 2008 the company has also extended the activity to the import and distribution of silk, linen, viscouse, polyester and mix fabrics obtaining good market shares in short time. The philosophy is to provide the highest quality product and to continue investing for the improvement of final products and customer service. The company is trying to delete all the chemical substances that could be dangerous to the environment in all the production process and supply chain and for this reason a continuous research and development are needed for a more controlled and sustainable activity. To follow this objective Ongetta signed the Greenpeace Detox Commitment and obtained also the Global Organic Textile Standard certificate.
