Welcome.

Excellence in textile production depends on a lot of factors. In addition to the materials used, it is also very important to carefully match the means of production with the desired end product. As a partner along the entire textile value chain, Groz-Beckert sets new standards here: Steady further development is assured by the company's comprehensive expertise in specific technologies combined with its awareness of what lies beyond their boundaries. At the Techtextil and Texprocess 2015 in Frankfurt am Main (Germany), Groz-Beckert demonstrated how this holistic approach to textile production can trigger important synergies between technologies. And with Groz-Beckert's recent acquisition of the carding activities of the Belgian Bekaert Group, the company's competence continues to grow.
