COMPANY

Our family’s business tradition was born in Montegranaro in 1909.
Initially business started in agricultural sector, consolidating itself for many years as a leading company in the production of high-tech machinery.
After the world war, together with the strong industrialization of the territory, Paccapelo family had the right intuition to differentiate the sectors of interest with important investments in “footwear world”, so they gave life to the Gruppo Paccapelo (Paccapelo Group). It was born a close synergy between companies operating in related fields, including the construction of high-tech machinery for footwear production, products for footwear manufacturing and the leather division.

Today we are specialized in production and distribution of domestic and imported leathers, refined, unusual leathers for footwears, leather goods and leather clothing. Our group has now reached the third-generation business and it is present in Brazil, Mexico, China and India.

All this is made possible, in addition to the ethical and family values ​​transmitted from father to son, by the daily passion for our work and by the renewed enthusiasm that allows us to face and overcome the challenges of market. It brings us to a constant updating and to continuous company growth.

SUSTAINABILITY

We talk a lot about sustainable development and eco-sustainability with reference to environment that surrounds us and how we can improve from an economic, social and natural point of view.
To make this possible, it is essential that a continuous and effective communication is created between parts: who live in a given territory and the actual resources offered, so it avoids unnecessary waste and harmful side effects.

For future we need to respect new generations, avoiding to disfigure natural heritage and tend towards a gradual alignment of the four fundamental sustainability rules: environmental, economic, social and institutional.

NATURE: THE WOOD THAT LEAVES LEATHER

PACCAPELO DIVISIONE PELLAMI is the only fashion side distributor of “NUO Wood material”.

Wood is one of the most valuable natural products. Every tree and every type of wood has its own individual characteristics and shows the traces of evolution. Carefully hand-selected veneer and excellence in high level wood processing are the basis for an innovative material with incredible softness, a luxury look and an impressive texture. The result is NUO.

The innovation lies in creating a completely new material out of wood that is hugely soft and flexible. NUO is a patented material made from thin sheets of wood which are bonded to a fabric or a different backing using an environmentally friendly adhesive. Micro laser cutting turns selected woods into a unique soft material experience.
