Cm tessuti is part of the history of the Biella textile district, an area which has long been recognised as the home of wool and the capital of the textile industry. As well as the craftsmanship which lives in the memories of the workers, Biella has a rich industrial history of factories and workshops located on the banks of the rivers which flow through the region.

The factory was first founded in 1899 thanks to the foresight of Adolfo Valle, an entrepreneur who in the early 1900s was an innovative driving force for the region, transforming his vision into a modern industrial system.

The long rooms are home to rows of shining looms which rhythmically and tirelessly give life to the fabric in a long and continuous production process.
Christian and Marco chose to found cm tessuti in a region where the history of the industry has witnessed an important sequence of events. At the base of the picturesque valley of Vallestrona, alongside the old tramlines to Vallemosso, the rhythmic sounds of the machines and the melody of the babbling waters of the Strona stream evoke memories of times gone by and yet which are still alive today, within and around the walls of the former Valle wool mill.
