Silca is an Italian company that has successfully operated in the hosiery industrial sector for over 50 years.
The company manufactures (taking care of the entire production cycle) high-quality stockings and tights for private label and under its own brand, for both the Italian and foreign markets.
Silca was established as a contracting non-industrial Dye Works' in 1954 by initiative of the brothers Piero and Franco Beldì, in an area mainly characterised by manufacturing companies.
Over the years, thanks to the experience gained, the Beldì brothers broadened their horizons and started to manufacture and distribute ladies' hosiery, thus completing the company's production cycle.
In the Sixties, three main lines of classical, control and fashion tights were created under the FBS brand, which were extremely successful on the specialised market. Constant technological development and a constant focus on market needs have driven the founders' decisions from the Seventies to date.
Today Silca, which is led by its founders' children, continues the family's success history with increased enthusiasm, by preserving the values that have always been at the basis of its growth.
The company designs, develops and internally manufactures ladies' and men's hosiery and tights.
The solidity and skills of longstanding experience in the hosiery sector can be recognised particularly in special products — graduated compression, control, and technical hosiery and tights — which require high professionalism, world-class yarns, and constant controls.
Silca hosiery products are entirely manufactured in Italy.
From design to weaving, from sewing to control and dyeing, all the way up to packaging, the entire production cycle of Silca hosiery products takes place in Italy, at our plants.
4 manual production verifications are performed on the Nady graduated products.
Moreover, in order to promptly meet the needs of our customers, we have two warehouses ensuring immediate delivery.
Silca is increasingly orienting its production towards the use of Lycra yarns, a top-quality brand recognised all over the world.
Most of our products undergo the "Sanitized" anti-bacterial and antimycotic treatment, with controls performed and certification released at the Sanitized laboratories.
The prevention line "Linea Nady by SILCA", a medical device, meets all the requirements of European Directive 93/42/CE.
Silca is an ISO 9001-certified company.
Since the very beginning, Silca made environmentally-friendly choices a long time before the word "ecology" made its appearance in our day-to-day life, by combining development with limited environmental impact.
For almost 30 years we have used a biological purifier for the treatment of dyeing residues, thus preventing the release into the environment of the chemical products used during production.
Condensation recovery technology allows us to save a large amount of water during the manufacturing cycles.
Moreover, a new photovoltaic system covering the entire production plant has been recently installed and contributes to reducing our energy needs.
