long experience in textile, mechanic and electronic fields.
Italy is today ranked as the second largest producer of textile
machinery in the world and the technological level of its
production is considered of the highest standard even by its
competitors themselves. In 2008, the production of Italian
textile machinery amounted to 2.0 billion Euro, 79% of which
(worth 1.6 billion Euro) exported to about 130 countries. Asia
(43%) is the main export area, followed by Europe (34%), South
America (11%), Africa (7%) and North America (5%). Some of

Pietro Prosino while talking to PTJ editor at ITM Istanbul said,
“Our brand Borgosesia Rings F1 rings are developed to meet the
expectations of the demanding spinners worldwide. Our goal is to
obtain a ring that last longer than conventional rings to avoid
micro welding with steel travelers. The special surface that
protects the ring is extremely hard, yet very smooth.”
