In terms of industry, the Torcitura di Rancio, a textile transformation industry, was formed as a joint venture between Montefibre, interested in the transformation of its yarns, and the Ratti group, interested in textile machinery aspects. The former twisting plant was then acquired by the Cumdi company of Germignaga.[3]
