ALPACA FIBER

For many years, our ancestors, the Incas, worked with this extraordinary commodity, "The Alpaca Fiber".

Nowadays techniques in the use of this fiber had improved to create fine textiles and knitted fabrics. For many years, we've worked with this fine natural hair that comes from ALPACAS, animal that lives in the Peruvian Andes, in very cold and dry weather over more than 4,000 meters above sea level.

There are 2 kinds of ALPACAS: Suri and Huacaya, these are the source of this beautiful fiber of exceptional brightness and extraordinary texture, its refinement goes from 19 microns (royal alpaca) 22 microns (baby alpaca) to 36 microns (thick fiber). It's the only one in the world that has such a wide variety of natural colors.

PERU FIBRAS, MAGIC AND QUALITY OF NATURE,
 gives you today, at your will, a variety of knitted clothes with this exclusive hair,
called "The Gold of the Andes"

COTTON FIBER
The Incas, famous because of their superior culture in witch the textile art was an important part of this, made beautiful knitted clothes using also the cotton fiber. Nowadays we've developed the most valuable vegetable fibers that Peru has: Pima Cotton and Tanguis Cotton.

PIMA COTTON: This variety comes from the Metafiti Egyptian group, taken to the USA were they produced the Giza, Yuma and Pima cottons, being this last one the best because of its long thread. The Peruvian Pima Cotton is grown in the north coast of this country, the combination of the seed, the earth and the microclimate had made this cotton the finest and with the longest thread in the world, only comparable with the Egyptian cotton. It has a special brightness and a great softness.

TANGUIS COTTON: Developed by a Peruvian Engineer, whose last name was Tanguis. As the pima cotton, this variety requires a special microclimate to be developed. Itis grown in the central and southern cost of Peru. This is a well recognized and one of the finest cotton in the world.
