With over 50 years of experience in the manufacturing sector, Premiata Tessitura TACS upholds the reputation of the Casentino region through its production of excellence, based on strict adherence to the centuries-old manufacturing processes of the famous Panno fabric.
TACS Weaving Honored: Tuscan Excellence Around the World
Born out of the foresight of Bruno Savelli and strengthened over the years thanks to his son Massimo (who was awarded the title of Master Craftsman in 2016), the company now looks to the future under the leadership of David, the third generation of a family dedicated to tradition, carrying on the legacy of the Casentino woolen cloth artisans.
The link to the past lies, in fact, in a passion for a style rooted in Renaissance Tuscany and a love for a product that is—and aims to remain—an undisputed symbol of elegance in Italy and around the world.
For this reason, direct sales at factory prices are complemented by a presence at prestigious trade shows, as well as the export of TACS products to the U.S., Great Britain, Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam—a successful venture that provides “Made in Italy” with yet another strength based on the combination of quality and value.
The Casentino: An Open-Air Work of Art
Encircled like a flower in the morning by the Tuscan-Romagnol Apennines, the Pratomagno, and the Alpe di Catenaia, the Casentino—with its quaint villages and pristine forests—is a land of immeasurable beauty.
From Pratovecchio Stia to Capolona, this valley—which today comprises 12 municipalities and nearly 50,000 residents—is unanimously recognized as a region of great interest to all types of visitors: Of fundamental importance are Camaldoli and La Verna, centers of Catholic piety, but certainly no less significant is the region’s archaeological wealth, dotted with Etruscan sites, Romanesque churches, and medieval castles.
Also noteworthy is the region’s careful preservation of priceless artistic masterpieces, complemented by the inexhaustible wealth of fascinating nature trails within the Casentinesi Forests, Monte Falterona, and Campigna National Park.
Nature and human creation coexist in an inseparable symbiosis, forming a kaleidoscope of colors and images that transport visitors to a bygone era. From the shadows of the castles to the picturesque harvested fields of summer, from traditional festivals to cultural events, the Casentino retains its magical allure as an unspoiled gem waiting to be discovered.
The Casentino Cloth Production Chain and Quality
Experience has taught us that two things lead to success: strict production control and the ability to collaborate with companies that share our attention to detail.
With this focus, Premiata Tessitura TACS ensures that every day, Panno Casentino clothing is produced that is not only visually striking, but also embodies those qualities, even the most subtle, that are crucial to excellence.
