Kelheim Fibres, MagnoLab partner to drive textile innovation

Kelheim Fibres, a company that makes special fibers from viscose, has joined forces with MagnoLab, a group of textile companies in the Biella region.

This partnership shows how working together can boost innovation and sustainability in the textile industry. Kelheim Fibres doesn’t just supply fibers; they also want to help the whole industry come up with new ideas and eco-friendly solutions.

Kelheim Fibres has labs where they test things, and teaming up with MagnoLab, which has top-notch textile machines, makes their research and development even more efficient. They can now make small samples and prototypes using different technologies, which helps them create solutions using their special fibers that other companies in the textile industry can use.

Giovanni Marchi, President of MagnoLab, thinks this collaboration is important because they can now cover the entire textile process, making their work even more valuable.

This partnership allows them to try out new ideas quickly and get them into action faster. Plus, it helps connect European companies more closely, which means shorter trips for materials and a smaller impact on the environment. It also makes it easier to bring new innovations to Europe.
