Growth of Karl Mayer Rotal puts Italy on machine production map

Since it started supplying machines in the dying years of the ’60s, Karl Mayer Rotal has been known as a global producer of high-tech warp preparation machines. Now, the company is all set for further expansion. The beginning of this year saw the production facilities of Karl Mayer Rotal, headquartered in Mezzolombardo, being extended by 3,100 m2. Now, the company’s site covers 9,000 m².

The turnover has grown four times over the past five years and the turnover in terms of finance has since increased to €40 million. It is estimated that the company is likely to cross the 45 million-euro-level this year, thanks to the company’s exports. In the regular routine, Karl Mayer Rotal ropes in roughly around 80 per cent of its profits overseas mainly from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Turkey. But business has also started to pick up on the domestic market again. The revenue is generated by selling sizing and dyeing machines for the denim sector and with sales activities for the whole Karl Mayer Group.

In recent expansion, completed in June of this year, around €2.7 million was invested. The project was the reason why the company decided to invite its customers to an open house event at its modern site. The event, held on June 24 and 25 was the perfect opportunity for visitors to view the production facilities, to look at the latest technology in sectional warping, indigo dyeing and sizing, and to exchange information. Nearly 146 representatives from 50 companies attended the open house for the warp preparation customers in Mezzolombardo and their interest in the company and machines on show generated positive feedback.

Investing in expanding the plant has strengthened the company’s position on the standing in its international markets and has also increased awareness of Italy as a production location. Over the years, denim dyeing was one of the areas that Karl Mayer Rotal had tapped into and has now become a global pioneer with high growth ambitions in the lucrative textile sector. The extension of the site in Mezzolombardo has also gone hand in hand with expansion of the activities of the company in the denim sector.
