I believe that the company is named Ferrino. It's an Italian company that makes outdoor gear, including a raincoat/poncho similar to the well known (to forum members) Altus.

Ferrino: Contemporary Outdoor Since 1870 - Ferrino

Ferrino is a well known italian outdoor equipment company founded in the 19th century.
https://www.ferrino.it/es Similar to Millet and Lafuma from France, Vaude or Salewa from Germany or Mammut from Switzerland. All Classic mountain equipment companies.

I have just finished walking the Via Postumia and Via Degli Dei using a Ferrino Agile 35. I like it. The waist belt is on the narrow side but other than that it has worked well.

A 48L is a bit on the large side...at least for me.

Sorry don’t know this company but wanted to share that I (small - medium height female) am walking VDLP from Sevilla to Santiago with a 36 L backpack - so far so good.

Walked with a girl using the Ferrino Finisterre backpack. It seemed alright. Pretty much like al the Osprey and Gregory and whatnot. If you are not looking for an ultralight option chances are that if it fits you well it will do its job.
