After taking part in a customer-day event at the Avient ColorWorks design and technology center in Milan, company founder Francesco Franceschetti was inspired and suggested a collaboration to conduct an exhaustive study of the Italian ski boot marketplace and the colors boot makers use in their products.

These improvements freed working capital for other projects, and helped keep production running at a consistent rate for annual savings estimated by the company at more than $200,000 a year.
