Fili Pari is an innovative Italian startup focused on research and development of unconventional materials for the textile industry, respecting the territory, people and the environment. The start-up is a specialist in the development of cutting-edge technologies for the enhancement of marble powders. Fili Pari wants to protect the land and valleys from mountains dismemberment and encourages the use of by-products as a raw material because over 30% of a block of marble is waste. This generates very high disposal costs and the need to look for alternative solutions of the issue!

Fili Pari is the name of a start-up launched by Alice Zantedeschi and Francesca Pievani, two young under 35 entrepreneurs. Their collaboration started in the Design classroom at Politecnico di Milano within the Fashion System Design module, where they both graduated.

Raincoats Handcrafted in Italy

Their mission is to give lightness and dynamism to marble. Since ancient times marble has been used in art, architecture, and represents a cultural, economic, and geological heritage, symbol of uniqueness and timeless excellence. In the form of powder is used also in the fields of chemical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and food, thanks to the calcium carbonate containing in the stone. In the textile sector it was never been used before. 

 MARM \ MORE is the innovative material made with real marble powder that can be layered onto any type of natural, artificial or synthetic textile. A waterproof, breathable, wind-proof microfilm, to which marble gives the basic colour, and a soft tactile effect created by the presence of calcium carbonate, a compound of this stone material.

 MARM MORE products are entirely made in Italy in every phase of the process: from the selection of the marbles to their processing, up to the production of the material, transforming an industrial waste product from the Italian stone industry into a new range of textiles and approaching a circular economy.
