THE DRYERS
For the imminent period of storage, our company will operate the dryers in our facility at 21-23 Via Melchiorre Gioia. These systems are suitable for both simple yield-testing samples,and for whole batches of cocoons.

Very often, spinning mills were not equipped with the dryers needed to process (stew) the cocoons before reeling, so this was carried out in other specialized facilities, such as the Stagionatura Anonima di Milano (Maturation of Milan Limited), referred to in this promotional document.
