AMANN makes world's first Cradle to Cradle certified sewing thread

In January 2020, AMANN Group was the first sewing thread producer worldwide to receive the Cradle to Cradle Certified™ Gold certification for the technical cycle of its new ‘Lifecycle’ product line. Cradle to Cradle® certified products are designed for complete composting (biological cycle) or pure recycling (technical cycle) and enable consistently closed recycling management without any waste. Cradle to Cradle stands for products that are either used as biological nutrients in biological cycles or that are continuously kept in technical cycles as technical nutrients. For years, AMANN Group has been advancing products in order to make them more sustainable by using selected recycled and natural materials.

Simultaneous or traversing distortion detection in textile production: a tough decision. Or is it?

With the invention of the first automatic weft straightener, Mahlo GmbH + Co. KG set a milestone in the textile industry. Continuous further development and a high level of innovation, incorporating many years of experience in application technology, resulted in the straightening technology that still defines the standard in the industry today. No other system on the market can detect distortions as precisely as the scanning system of the machine manufacturer from Bavaria, Germany. Even the most complicated weaves, surface structures and patterns are detected fully automatically and reliably. The appropriate measuring principle for the interested customer's product mix can be selected from a broad portfolio of different scanning technologies and sensors.
