The requirements for textile machinery and their functions have changed significantly in recent years. As a result, machines and lines are getting larger and more complex, mainly if they are not supplied to the traditional garment industry but instead used for the production of technically challenging end products, the company reports.

Owner Regina Brückner said that in the decision for the new building it was for them very important that all of their workers and employees could continue since their personnel is major asset and their experience cannot be replaced. For this reason, it was never a possibility for them to move their production abroad. They would have lost many valuable workers and this loss they cannot afford and they do not want to since they are responsible for their employees and workers. And they are proud of their quality Made in Germany and they rely on it also in future.

In addition it was important for them to get a particularly energy-efficient building. Their new production site shall be as efficient and energy-saving as their lines.
