In an area with a high textile tradition, the Bruno Chiaruttini hosiery company specializes in the production for third parties of classic men’s and children’s socks.

The production is growing, the results of the market are positive, the textile capacity and the seriousness entrepreneurship create the conditions for future development and Chiaruttini creates brands for the distribution of classic socks.

These are years of consolidation and opening of new markets. To Mr. Bruno is joined by his son Claudio, whose more international vision develops exports.

New investments allow the Chiaruttini socks to become part of the sports socks market: the ACCAPI brand – the acronym of High Performance – rigorously made in Italy is born.

The market and the customers require more specialization: basic productions are abandoned to devote themselves to research and innovation and the era oftechnical sports stocking with differentiated structure begins. The sock becomes a fundamental “tool” for every sport.

The world and the technologies are constantly evolving. ACCAPI is always closer to athletes and their problems and is aware that doing sports in cold environments and without the right equipment can be fatal. The concept of protection becomes a mission of the brand.

New investments allow the Chiaruttini socks to become part of the sports socks market: the ACCAPI brand – the acronym of High Performance – rigorously made in Italy is born.

Accapi presents the ERGORACING underwear and socks market, a highly successful protection system.

The research and development section of ACCAPI understands that the future of well-being, especially in sport, is the use of infrared rays properties and is dedicated to studies and research with leading Italian and international universities to verify the benefits of some textile fibers.

POLARBEAR underwear and sock are born, equipped with a very high insulating thermal capacity. Created using a hollow yarn, which takes its inspiration from the hollow hairs of the Polar bear, and reinterpreted with the new technologies in hollow fibers, they are unique and appreciated items on the market.

After years of experimentation and clinical trials, ACCAPI presents to the sports market the first technical sock with differentiated structure with infrared emission, whose properties microcirculation and recovery improve, offering a surplus to traditional socks.

Accapi presents to the sports market ACCAPI PRO, the first infrared emission underwear, whose properties improve performance and recovery. It’s the birth of a new era.

The infrared rays emitted by ACCAPI garments conquer authority and even the skeptics are convinced. Not only athletes and trainers, but also control bodies certify their effectiveness, and sportsmen confirm this. ACCAPI develops and deposits a line of orthopedic supports certified by the Italian Ministry of Health assigning it the CE mark.

The patented CRYSTAL TRAMA structure is born and, thanks to a special textile processing, it gives the technical underwear a very glamorous technological look.

The continuous study of the links between the properties of the textile fibers and their effects on the body cuts a further goal: ACCAPI presents EQT, equilibrium system, a system that, integrated into the underwear, improves and optimizes significantly the postural stability.

Accapi presents the innovative system able to increase maximum strength, recovery with a consequent increase in the body’s ability to support high intensity workouts and increased aerobic power measured.
The results are verified by the Cooper test which is recognized by the international scientific community.

Every human body as well as every garment to wear are different, for this reason Accapi has developed the EXS system that represents a system of optimization and modulation of the parameters that make up an Accapi garment.
Dimensional parameters of the fibers, the type of weave or weft, types of yarns with different technical characteristics.

ACCAPI presents WAVE technology and develops a line of technical sports socks which combines the wave structure with the already known taping, used in the textile field in combination to the potential of the infrared.

A new strategy focus the R&S department to the overall wellness. Technology, fibres and know-how develop new lines of products directed to new markets

Accapi chooses green and develops ERGOCYCLE, the high-performance underwear obtained from post-consumer recycled plastic through a sustainable process.
