Hypertex system installed in Eberbach – Test your own yarn materials

(c) 2020 Dilo
The production of multilayered reinforced felts can be tested in the DILO technological centre in Eberbach with the scrim fabric machine “Turbotex” by ONTEC in combination with a DILO Hyperpunch needleloom. The spacing of the weft yarns is infinitely variable allowing the creation of meshs with apertures of up to 20 x 20 mm.

This allows high possible savings in raw material usage with the help of high productivity. The yarn applicator “Turbotex” can use a wide array of fibre material. It is also possible to combine homogeneously warp and weft threads of different materials or to use variably combined warp structures. This high flexibility in material results in numerous applications.


The warp yarns can now be delivered from a creel in the technological centre to have full flexibility when testing the materials.

Textile climate control system in workwear – exhibition at the 2026 SME Innovation Day!

Conventional protective workwear often reaches its limits during strenuous physical activity. In particular, the transport of sweat and excess body heat poses a problem. The German Institutes of Textile and Fiber Research (DITF) conducted research on flow-optimized, air-conducting textile structures that enable targeted climate control directly on the body. These structures can be integrated straight into protective work garments. The textile climate control system supports the body’s natural thermoregulation. This contributes to improved workplace safety and comfort.
