Innovations – more than just inventions

Innovations are one of the most important factors behind the success of the KARL MAYER GROUP and lay the foundations for its reputation: for decades, the company has been considered an influential technological leader in the textile industry. To develop its pioneering solutions, the industry leader pursues various avenues – including completely new ones – as illustrated by the collaboration between the Business Unit Warp Knitting and IPEK – the Institute for Product Development at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). The joint project combines practice and research, and was launched with a kick-off meeting at the KARL MAYER GROUP’s headquarters in Obertshausen on 12 October 2023.
