LAIP was founded in 1958 with the intention ever since to supply the market of the textile dyeing industry with innovation and quality. The context in which the company lives is the Prato district, Italy, strongly characterized by unrivaled textile know-how. Therefore, the obvious need to work is quality without forgetting innovation, two fundamental production concepts. Thanks to this attitude the market globally recognizes the continuous evolution of LAIP.

The company is driven to always face new challenges and the interaction with customers stimulate the design and technology department to find suitable solutions to face the new and important needs of dyehouses. From this ability to dialogue, the innovations - that will then be globally disseminated - are born.
