With an impressive 7 % CAGR over the next ten years, this industry is full of energy, creativity and new opportunities. Yesterday and today here at ITMA Asia, I’ve spoken with customers from all over the world – people who shape our industry with vision and passion. And one thing is clear: they are not just looking for machines. They are looking for solutions – for technology that makes them more efficient, sustainable and competitive.
At AUTEFA, we see this change as an invitation to innovate. Our mission is simple: Our Technology for Your Success. We combine European engineering and innovation with the industrial strength and speed of China –in short: the best of both worlds. Our Nonwovens Competence Center in Linz is where ideas become technology. There we test, refine and validate new processes. And with our strong manufacturing partners within the CHTC Group, such as ZFJ Textile Machinery, we can deliver faster and more cost-effectively than ever before.
A perfect example of this philosophy is our Needle Loom StylusONE from our LineONE Series. It’s built on the proven AUTEFA Fehrer technology – re-engineered for today’s market, delivering a perfect balance between performance and investment. StylusONE represents the best of both worlds: a European brand, innovative technology, and strong service, combined with Chinese speed and costeffectiveness. The first StylusONEs are already running successfully – for example at Heading Filter in China, and several installations in India. The feedback is clear: high productivity, low maintenance, and great reliability. It simply runs – day and night, without drama.
But our journey goes beyond new machines. We help customers upgrade and retrofit existing lines – to increase performance, reduce energy consumption, and extend lifetime. This is sustainability in action – practical, measurable, effective. And we are already working on the next step: Recycling solutions for textile waste – including tearing and grinding machines. Our goal is to close the textile loop, so that tomorrow’s fibers can come from yesterday’s fabrics.
Ladies and gentlemen, the textile industry stands at a turning point – between tradition and transformation. That’s exactly where AUTEFA feels at home. We bring together experience and innovation, European quality and global strength. Our mission remains clear: We create technology that makes success possible – Your Success. Thank you very much –and I warmly invite you to visit us here at Hall 2, Stand D201, to see the future of Nonwovens in action.
