Responsibility

Lana Grossa is aware of its important role as a major wool manufacturer. In order to take responsibility, Lana Grossa has long-standing partnerships and friendships with its spinning mills, most of which are located in northern Italy. This proximity to the company headquarters in Bavaria guarantees short transportation routes. This ensures functioning and, above all, transparent supply and production chains. The new wool is from merino sheep from species-appropriate husbandry in Australia, New Zealand and South America and is of course mulesing-free. Mohair is sourced from South Africa and the AIA-certified alpaca from South America. The cashmere used comes from Mongolia and the Himalayas. Lana Grossa attaches great importance to the sustainable future of the industry and looks after its own employees as well as those of its partners with fair wages, modern and flexible working conditions and commitment that goes beyond an employment relationship.
