Carlo Lamperti

What Carlo Lamperti does

Carlo Lamperti (legal entity: Tessitura Carlo Lamperti e Figlio S.p.A.) is a privately held, family-owned Italian textile manufacturer founded in 1861 in Osnago (Lecco), Brianza, and currently led by the sixth generation of the Galimberti family. The company produces professional table linens (tablecloths, napkins, placemats) and kitchen textiles (towels, aprons, technical cloths) for the Ho.Re.Ca. (Hotels, Restaurants, Cafés) sector and for industrial laundries that supply and launder linens for hospitality operators. Core technical capability is built on specialized weaving techniques (jacquard, Panama, satin, herringbone, flamed yarn), Indanthrene dyeing for color fastness under repeated industrial washing, and, more recently, a patented-equivalent recycled cotton processing flow (no chemical additives) that underpins the Green Collection sustainable line. A second production facility has been operational in Çorlu, Turkey since 2005, operated via core partner Mito Tekstil, giving the company a fully vertical dual-country supply chain from design through manufacturing.

The company operates a B2B direct-sales model with Area Managers covering international markets and a dedicated Back Office / Customer Care function supporting industrial laundry and Ho.Re.Ca. buyer relationships. Revenue is generated through one-time purchase orders (no subscription or licensing model disclosed) across three product streams: professional table linens (cotton and linen-blend), kitchen textiles, and customized/bespoke products (labels, chips, jacquard logos for client branding). Distribution is field-sales-led rather than retail; digital channels (Italian/English corporate website, LinkedIn, Facebook, email newsletter) support awareness but are not transactional. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the company sells on durability, customization, and supply-chain reliability rather than open market list prices. Headcount is reported in the 11–50 range, with offices in Osnago (Italy, headquarters) and Çorlu (Turkey, manufacturing). The company holds OEKO-TEX Standard 100, ISO 9001 (and UNI EN ISO 9001:2015), Better Cotton Initiative membership, Hohenstein Institute testing certification, and HACCP compliance for the Green Collection line.
