SUPPLIER FOR
GRANFONDO NOVE COLLI
Sitip supplied Gobik with the fabrics for the jerseys of Nove Colli, one of the biggest Italian cycling events and the oldest and most prestigious “granfondo” of international cycling, whose “first edition” dates back to 1971.
The name of the race itself suggests its difficulty: 9 different and demanding climbs await the athletes, a route that puts even the most trained sportsmen to the test!
For the creation of the jerseys for this historic competition we used recycled fabrics from the NATIVE Sustainable Textiles line – a technology that is applied to fabrics produced with recycled yarns and low environmental impact chemicals, implementing the GRS (Global Recycle Standard) standard. A collection that attests Sitip as a company that operates with a circular business model, in line with the most recognized certifications, and strongly oriented towards the future.

GRANFONDO INTERNAZIONALE
FELICE GIMONDI
Since the first edition in 1996, Sitip has been the Official Sponsor of the “International Granfondo Felice Gimondi”, a historical “partnership” that plunges its roots in the deep friendship that has linked our founder Luigi Pezzoli with the champion Felice Gimondi.

A race with a “slow ride” philosophy, amateur and lived with pure passion, where fun and healthy competition coexist harmoniously, united by the intense affection that binds the athletes who participate to the famous and beloved Gimondi.
And Sitip fully shares the philosophy of this competition: the Granfondo is an important showcase for our province, the bicycle is increasingly an object of worship and promotion and Gimondi is a contribution to the rebirth of the territory.
In the same province where Sitip is located and operates, on the same roads on which Felice Gimondi trained every day without saving himself, and which every year are filled with stories and emotions, over 88,000 cyclists have participated in the event and to whom Sitip wants to be alongside.
