Bludenz, Austria – 2 April, 2024 – From PPE to sound absorption and 3D technology – the challenges are as varied as our fabrics. As the leading system supplier for technical textile solutions with seven sites in Europe, Getzner Textil is a fabric manufacturer that is also a partner for new developments.

We employ the experience gained throughout a company history that spans over 200 years and the expertise of our workforce to create products with added value. A safer, quieter, more efficient performance? Thanks to innovative technologies, our fabrics can play all parts. The Techtextil offers us a platform for presenting our products in the areas of personal protective equipment, functional clothing, acoustic fabrics and corporate fashion. We will also be exhibiting 3D technologies, as well as smart textiles.

Sustainability
We are steadily working on improving the impact of our business activities on the environment at all of the company's sites. Energy efficiency is a top priority at Getzner Textil, and is actively incorporated into the production processes. On the one hand, this can be achieved by using the latest technologies, and on the other, through the ongoing modernisation of our already existing plant and equipment. Numerous certificates such as bluesign® and OEKO-TEX® confirm our active commitment. Furthermore, our internal development department has achieved good results when it comes to working with polyamides made from castor oil and biomass.

We will also be showing new fabrics made from a polyamide that is produced from recycled car tyres. Visitors to the Techtextil trade fair will have the opportunity to find out more about our numerous measures for more sustainable textile production at the "Econogy Talks".
