Limonta
A renowned specialist in woven fabrics and faux leather, Limonta is a family-owned firm working closely with some of the world’s most selective and quality-minded luxury brands.
The snow-covered peaks of the southern Alps form a beautiful backdrop to the village of Costa Masnaga, located north of Milan in the Lombardy region. This small village has been the home of textile manufacturer Limonta since the company was founded in 1893.
Limonta originally focused on making intricate jacquard weaves for upholstery. Its production still includes home textiles, but also fabrics and materials for apparel, shoes, and accessories, as well as wallpaper and even artificial grass.
The company’s rich heritage is embodied by an extensive archive, holding thousands and thousands of cuttings from all fabrics ever produced by Limonta. It is a unique and captivating collection, worthy of any museum. The archive dates back to the late 19th century and also contains original, often hand-painted, sketches of the jacquard patterns.
To be able to expand its business, Limonta has moved to modern facilities outside of its home village. The factories are high-tech and cover all stages from design to weaving, printing, and finishing, and also have their own laboratory where tests and development are performed.
The company’s two weaving plants house around 300 looms for both jacquards and plain weaves, which run 24 hours a day, six days a week. However, with respect and loyalty to its beginnings, Limonta still has its base and head office in the centre of Costa Masnaga.

Introducing Soilless cotton
Materials|September 2026
Cotton is the world's most widely used natural fibre. Depending on how the yarn is spun, woven or finished, it can become anything from crisp poplin and fine jersey to sturdy canvas and soft flannel. It is also by far the most common material across the ARKET collections, accounting for roughly 60% of the materials we use. While the qualities of the fibre remain familiar, new ways of growing cotton continue to be explored. For autumn 2026, we introduce our first garments made with soilless cotton.

Brands|August 2026
Based on a life-long fascination with notebooks, diaries, organising and hand-to-paper sketching, Dutch graphic designer Marjolein Delhaas creates planners defined by clean design, bold colours and modern typography. In her own words, they are ‘tiny systems that help structure your thoughts without dictating, leaving room for the unexpected.’ This autumn, she has developed a custom colour range of back-to-work essentials for ARKET.
