Whereas 2020 was dominated by single jersey machines, 2021 and the current year are mainly characterized by high demand in home textiles, mattresses and the sportswear sector, for both mechanical and electronical machines.
It is important to point out, that all this has been achieved despite problems with supply chains leading to delays, highest prices for commodities, raw materials and parts, in particular electronic like semi-conductors, as well as transportation and lately sky rocketing energy costs that stretched us as probably many others to the breaking point.
All this would not have been possible without our staff that invests everyday all their passion in catering for the needs of our sophisticated clients and of course continuously strong demand for many blockbuster machines offering unique structure options, like our wide-ranging I3P family.
World’s leading textile companies and garment producers trust in the highest quality, productivity and flexibility of Terrot machines. Despite the uncertainties deriving from the ongoing war in Ukraine and other geopolitical threads the demand remains stable in most of the regions. A continuous increase in demand for premium machines, characterized by a growing share of knitted fabrics, digitization and sustainability issues enable us to develop from a machine manufacturer into a comprehensive solution providing partner to our existing and future customers.
Terrot is successfully selling machines into more than 100 countries around the world. The main markets are India, Uzbekistan and Turkey. The company is also active in Europe, Asia and Latin America, which guarantees a wellbalanced sales performance.
The past year has seen also changes in the shareholding structure of the company with the managing directors, Mr Robert Czajkowski as the CEO, and Mr Dirk Lange, who joined Terrot in 2020 moving up to becoming managing partners, emphasizing the ownermanaged tradition of this German machine manufacturer.
