Bräcker, Graf, Novibra, Suessen had enriching and fruitful discussions at Shanghaitex

Suessen presented the new compact spinning system EliTe®Advanced (c) 2015 Suessen

From June 15 – 18, 2015, Bräcker, Graf, Novibra and Suessen presented in Shanghai their newly developed Premium Components. Through the competent performance of the sales team and the comprehensive display of premium products, the visitors were able to see and experience the difference of the premium products from Bräcker, Graf, Novibra and Suessen.

Bräcker presented the latest two new spinning rings redORBIT und OPAL®. The redORBIT and the OPAL® rings are the answers to the demands of today’s fast paced spinning industry, where the spinning mills have to work with very tight cost control, whilst adapting quickly to the ever faster changing markets.

Graf as always set the quality standard in the field of card clothing and combing articles. The advanced clothing magnifier provided the opportunity to visually demonstrate the precision of the well-proven Graf card clothings. The numerous visitors could thus be convinced of the high-quality products first-hand.

Novibra, the leader in spindle technology and the only 100% in-house spindle maker presented their wide range of spindles. The high-speed spindle and modern clamping crown CROCOdoff attracted attention during the exhibition. As the quality demand for textile components is increasing faster than ever before, the products from Novibra presenting the highest quality of spindle are becoming more and more popular in China.

Suessen presented the new compact spinning system EliTe®Advanced for short staple fibres and the Top Weighting Arm HP-GX 4010plus for roving frames. The outstanding features impressed the visitors. They were extremely interested in the possible savings in energy, consumables and maintenance effort as well as in the increased yarn production, lower ends-down rates and improved yarn quality parameters provided by the new system.

High-performance yarns for tomorrow's mobility

At this year's Techtextil in Frankfurt (April 21–24), Barmag will be presenting comprehensive solutions for the production of industrial filament yarns at the VDMA joint stand (Hall 12, C56). The focus will be on applications that ensure greater safety, durability, and efficiency in automotive engineering.

Rieter advances strategic repositioning amid market volatility

Rieter successfully completed the acquisition of Barmag on February 2, 2026, and reached an important milestone in the company’s repositioning. Barmag will be integrated into the Rieter Group as the “Man-Made Fiber” Division. With this strategically transformative acquisition, Rieter is expanding its core business beyond the short-staple fiber business in a targeted way. This positions Rieter as the global market leader along the entire value chain for natural and man-made fibers. In addition, as a complete systems supplier, Rieter is further strengthening its technological leadership in the areas of automation and digitization.

Measure and control the fiber – optimize yarn quality

Producing consistent yarn quality is an everyday challenge – and a very difficult one. Detailed knowledge and understanding of the fiber raw material is absolutely critical to achieving the best possible quality in the yarn. To help spinners, Uster experts have put together guidelines for avoiding yarn irregularity claims, in a special edition of the Uster News Bulletin.

Beyond the wardrobe – innovative cotton takes the spotlight

Cotton can do more – a lot more. Cutting-edge textiles and high-tech products made from 100% cotton prove just how powerfully performance and sustainability can come together. That very surge of innovation is front and centre at the 38th Bremen Cotton Conference, taking place March 25–27, 2026, at Bremen’s Parliament on the historic market square – culminating in a bold and dedicated closing session on Friday. In the spotlight: performance upgrades for pure cotton, smart strategies for circular textile waste solutions, and pioneering concepts for demanding technical applications. From natural fibre–reinforced composites to highly effective flame-retardant solutions, cotton steps out of the closet and shows the future potential woven into every fibre.
