Lines, the baby boom hero

In the heart of the baby boom, Angelini, through Fater, revolutionises our country’s health and hygiene market, introducing Lines disposable nappies to the market.

The name Lines is chosen because it recalls linen, used until then to make cloth nappies.

In this way Fater creates the nappy market for children: goodbye to uncomfortable cloth nappies, thanks to new “disposable” Lines nappies.
