Textile machinery manufacturer Truetzschler opened its new customer and technology centre for nonwovens in Egelsbach (near Frankfurt am Main) this week, to push technological innovation in nonwovens products and related manufacturing processes.

The family-owned company was established in 1888 and is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of textile machinery. “The key factors for the success of Truetzschler Group are sustainable technological innovation, the quality of its machines and its strong customer orientation. Thus, the investment in the new nonwovens customer and technology centre is the logical consequence to further develop the solid status of today to technology and quality leadership in this segment,” the company said today in a statement.

The technology centre presents two complete production lines: an inline carding line with thermobonding and spunlacing equipment and a spunlace-crosslapper line in an industrial working width. Both lines feature a wide range of possible variations and options to realise innovative end products.

On opening its new customer and technology center, Truetzschler invited all customers to jointly design the ‘way into the future’.
