INNOVATION

IPS was established by Enrico Marzioni, a forward-thinking expert in the laundry sector and in the manufacturing of elaborate garments.

Not long after its foundation, IPS expanded into the luxury sector, broadening its offering and forging partnerships with leading brands in the industry.

The opening of a new head office in Misano Adriatico marked a major step in the company’s expansion.

The company expanded its pattern-making and prototyping department in order to be able to handle all current product categories.

Enrico’s daughter Cristina joined the family business as Managing Director, while her husband Federico took on the role of General Manager, both bringing additional skills and a new vision to strengthen the company’s leadership.

The Urbania site was expanded to increase the cutting, manufacturing and ironing activities, thus boosting the company’s own denim manufacturing capacity.

The Star Capital fund entered the capital, bringing new investments, a new management team and new growth prospects. The same year IPS joined SNG.

IPS made new investments and initiated projects focused on sustainability, reflecting its commitment to responsible business practices.

The company opened new management and sales offices, which further improved its organizational structure and operating capacity.

IPS was recognized by the National Chamber of Italian Fashion as a haute couture brand in the eco-friendly category for manufacturing denim with regenerated cotton and laser processing, which guarantees a chemical-free process.

IPS was awarded by Class TV Moda and Milano Finanza with the ‘Premio Motore’ as the best company in the Marche region for the processing and study of dedicated materials. That same year IPS became part of Gruppo Florence.
