UNA MACCHINA BUSI® SOTTO LA TOUR EIFFEL. LE CALZE CHE INCANTANO PARIGI +
Sta lì, grigia e giallo ocra con le sue rocche colorate nell’atelier di rue César-Franck, a pochi passi dalla Tour Eiffel. Filo di Scozia, vigogna, ma anche lino e cashmere: da una decina d’anni il negozio di Jacques Tiberghien e Vincent Metzger è il punto di riferimento parigino — ma non solo, visti i numeri in crescita anche dello shop online — per la calzetteria maschile haute couture. E da qualche mese ospita una macchina per la produzione di calze Busi, l’azienda di Botticino che dal 1958 è specializzata nella progettazione e costruzione di macchine monocilindriche con aghi nel platorello per la produzione di calze, calzini e collant di elevata qualità.

| 1963 - the founder, Giovanni Busi |
1958

1967
Design and construction of the first Busi single-cylinder sock machine with rib needles in the dial.
From then on, our production was almost completely dedicated to manufacturing machines for the production of true rib socks, allowing the company to claim the most experience on the market with this type of machine.
1973
We entered the American market through a partnership with the US distributor Catawba Valley Machinery Co. in Hickory, NC.

2009

Two-month total lockdown follows. Every Italian business remains closed.
But in May BUSI’s activity restarts focusing on full rearrangements of all its departments as well as communication activity. Furthermore, research and development for new machinery and improvements to the existing range of machines get into high gear.

2022
Sadly, this is the year when the Russian-Ukraine conflict has started with severe human losses and huge economic-political consequences on a global scale.
Nevertheless, BUSI® looks to future and doesn’t give up.
We invest on exhibition for the textile industry in a couple of strategic markets: Turkey and Pakistan.
