Known for its innovation focus, one of the company’s most recent offerings is the fully automatic fitted sheet machine with incorporated folding unit
Texpa, a globally leading manufacturer of fully automated production lines for home textiles, has always been known for its strong innovation and technology focus. The company has through its quality product range made deep inroads into the Indian market in recent times. In an exclusive chat, Gerd Nasner, Vice President (Sales), Texpa sounded happy at the company’s performance in 2022. “The year gone by was outstanding. Despite the difficult economic situation worldwide we saw a significant order increase not only from India but from other major markets in the world as well with the first big order from a customer on the west coast of Africa,” he said.
According to Nasner, the company offers manufacturing lines for all kinds of home textiles as well as for special items like bags, flags, etc. to the global market. Highlighting the key global markets where the company enjoys a strong position, he added: “We are very strong on the Indian subcontinent as well as in China, Uzbekistan, US and Mexico. We are now witnessing a rising market in Africa.” The company is known for its innovation focus. “One of our recent innovations is the fully automatic fitted sheet machine with incorporated folding unit, another one a pillow machine working length | length with two or three fabric layers,” Nasner informed.
ITMA 2023 and Growth
2023 is the year of ITMA and the company is all excited to be participating in the mega textile trade fair. While ITMA 2019 was all about Industry 4.0, what is next in terms of manufacturing, automation and digitisation? To this question, Nasner replied, “Texpa is the driver of Industry 4.0 in our industry. As for cutting, sewing and folding of home textiles is concerned, Texpa is very close to perfection. If, in the past, you had 1,000 workers in your factory to finish textiles, today you have less than 100 with Texpa machines. And you will instantly have all the necessary information for guiding your production flow.” Noting how the company’s products and technologies ensure sustainable manufacturing, he commented: “Texpa stands for sustainable manufacturing. Our machines are built to work for more than 20 years.”
“They ensure minimisation of waste and drastically reduce the environmental impact of production,” he added. Underlining the key strengths of the company which give it an edge over the competition, Nasner remarked, “The strengths of our machines are constant high quality, high speed, low downtimes, durability, etc. These are factors that result in the best possible efficiency. This had made us a world market leader in our field of machines.” Nasner is confident of the company’s good showing in 2023. When asked about his expectations on the growth of the textile industry globally in 2023, he said, “We at Texpa are very optimistic. The energy crisis and our status as a world market leader will lead to even higher demand for our machines and services.”
