Kontatto Maglieria was established in 1995 by Federico Ballandi, Stefano Trecchi and Gianluca Goldoni, three partners who have successfully steered the company to this very day.

The name Kontatto is an Italian play on words inspired by the desire to express the way knitwear rests con tatto, or delicately, a contatto or against the skin; also, the use of the K instead of the C is a direct reference to a text-messaging custom adopted by youngsters today.
