MILAN – Under the theme, “Passion for Innovation,” Thies GmbH & Co. KG exhibited its latest advances in textile finishing technology at ITMA 2015.

 

The results? Impressive, according to Ronald Schrell, president of Thies Corp., the company’s U.S.  Rock Hill, S.C.-based subsidiary.

 

“Like many other exhibitors we can say this was one of the best ITMAs we experienced,” he said. “We saw mostly high-level technical people, along with the decision makers –every country has its own dynamics. The leads sound solid and we booked a substantial amount of business in just about every country in the world. Asia took the lead, however.”

 

Founded in 1892, Thies focuses on sustainable product solutions and on the development of innovative, intelligent and integrated concepts for yarn and piece dyeing, the company said.
