For three generations our family company, the Para Group, has been producing textiles with outstanding aesthetic and technical qualities. Since 1921, all of our fabrics have been proudly and exclusively made in our state-of-the-art production plants in Italy. Our hallmark Italian style and unparalleled quality and service have earned the Para Group a distinguished reputation within the high-end fabric category. Our fabric was even used to decorate the White House for President Barack Obama's family. The Para Group is now offering its entire line of Tempotest fabrics for awnings, marine, and outdoor furniture to the North American market. We are a vertically-integrated company, closely controlling the entire production cycle from the spinning to weaving stages, printing to dyeing, and coating through finishing. Our six manufacturing plants provide fabric to customers across the world, both directly and through distribution.
