Autiero S.p.A.

A long tradition, born in the 50s.

Autiero Company was founded in Campania, Italy in the mid 1950s and specialized in lining sector. The company then started changing the way of business, importing and distributing linen fabrics form Ireland.

The first big turning point in the Autiero history occurred in the early 60s, thanks to a commercial and cultural phenomenon that would definitely change the history of the Campania region: the famous “Positano fashion style”.

When the economic and touristic boom occurred in the early 60s tailor shops were established just to satisfy the increasing demand in female and male garment. A sector that was mostly devoted to natural fibres such as linen and cotton.

From “Positano fashion style” to linen and cotton fabrics imported from India, Bulgaria and Eastern Europe.

A new world was born for Autiero and for the Campania Region. A world made of little local craftsmen who used to process fabric by the technique of “garment dyeing”, following the fashion trends of those years. Riding the wave of enthusiasm, generated by a fresh market with the arrival of new and exigent customers from around the world, the Autiero founders make a big step forward in the fabric industry, becoming specialist in the process of “finishing” fabric (traditional printing, dyeing, embroidery, burnout etc.)
In the 1980s the Company focuses its attention on market research, recognizing their customers demands. Autiero use its experience developing an accurate study focused on creation of new fabrics, not only in Italy but in new countries as India, Bulgaria and Eastern Europe countries, always focused on natural fibres to propose to National and International fashion district.

From 90s to 2000

Autiero turns in a leader company.

Around the early 90s, after having developed decades of experience as “converter”, the Company increases its relationship with China and started silk fabric imports. In this time the company had only dealt with garment producers, and decided to finally modify their vision. Thanks to its experience and with the help of agents, Autiero company starts to show its collection to “Converters” , collecting success in this sector. It was important to apprehend the positive feedback from new customers because it allowed us to continue moving forward in the right direction. Over time high profile customers started showing their interest in  the Autiero collection. 

In the 2000s, Autiero establishes a weaving mill, in Hangzhou China, after a strong demand of big silk fabric quantities. The factory was equipped with 150 weaving looms and its own Quality control centre.

Autiero becomes direct producer, changing its core business into production and directly imports from China. The demand of top-quality fabric increases, and the market becomes more demanding. This situation leads the company to a cooperation with other weaving companies, developing high-level fabrics that still represent Autiero Specialization.
