Payper was the brainchild of the Valentini family who, inspired by the exemplary life of their pilot rescuer friend, decided to devote itself to manufacturing work wear and corporate wear clothing, designed to facilitate the movements of the individual, to protect and equip him/her with garments whose aesthetics are particularly refined, typical of the Italian style. The growth in size and the specialisation developed over time, in 2003 led to the birth of Industrial Wear, with the aim of industrialising the previous experiences, expanding the product catalogue, enhancing services and conquering new market sectors. In 2006, after distribution throughout the whole of Italy had been reached, the company turned to developing exports, covering all the main European markets in just a few years. Today it has a catalogue which includes over two thousand articles, qualified by patents and numerous certifications, which are flanked each year by more than fifty new creations by the Italian R&D department, constantly researching new aesthetic and functional solutions. Productions are managed and subjected to accurate quality controls directly by its staff in the technical offices located in various parts of the world. In 2017 the new headquarters were inaugurated, a modern complex which produces renewable energy, equipped with a 800 square metre showroom in which the entire Payper collection is displayed and with a warehouse boasting the latest generation intelligent logistics systems.
