Rieter ComforJet
licence for
Hermann Bühler AG
corporate news
Hermann Bühler AG, the spinning
major in Switzerland, has acquired
the Rieter licence for ComforJet
yarns. The official handover of the
certificate took place at ITMA in
Barcelona. On the Rieter stand, Reto
Thom, Rieter’s Head of Sales, pre-
sented the certificate to Mr. Dr. Beat
Denzler, Chairman of the Board and
Mr. Martin Kägi, CEO, Hermann
Bühler AG, in the presence of nu-
merous visitors.
Hermann Bühler AG, with head-
quarters in Winterthur-Sennhof,
Switzerland, produces yarns for cus-
tomers with the highest demands.
With innovative products, top qual-
ity and a perfect customer service,
the spinning plant sets standards. Al-
ways interested in the latest technol-
ogy, the company has been involved
from the start in the development of
the Rieter air-jet spinning machine.
Consequently, it is also one of the
first certified suppliers of ComforJet
yarns.
The form of the yarn construction
on the air-jet spinning machine, tur-
bulence from an air stream in a spin-
ning nozzle, results in a new type of
yarn structure. Typical features are
the very low hairiness, the smooth
yarn surface and the associated soft
and voluminous yarn character. This
yarn from the Rieter air-jet spin-
ning machine is marketed under
the brand name ComforJet. It offers
many benefits, not only in down-
stream processing but also in the end
product, and opens up new areas of
application.
Rieter actively promotes the sup-
ply sources for licensed yarns and
also provides a direct link to the li-
censee via the Rieter website. Cus-
tomers who have decided in favour
of a yarn licence additionally have
the option of exploiting the kno-
whow of the Rieter specialists and
being supported by them in specific
projects. Also, with their own mar-
keting activities, licensed customers
receive support from Rieter.
