Ekonominin Reflection of economy over the sector -

-

-

The major targets of emerging economies include reducing inflation rate and recording a stabile and sustainable growth. The textile sector, which had a successful year in 2013, has great hopes for the current year, too.

But the problems Turkey has been going through in recent times and the conflicts that risk the stabile growth Turkey has recorded in the last decade bother the producers. The business world evaluates increasing interest rate while the capacity usage, industrial production and increase in exports are continuing. They are, in fact, cautious about the negative affect of the problems over the growth and employment. Exporters were squeezed in between financial cost increase and pressure over the currency rates. On the other hand, tough time is approaching for manufacturer SMEs because their interest cost will increase considerably. Nobody in the sector can say that any development that will have an effect on stability of economy will not be of interest to the industrialists. We should still remember that despite the problems we have been going through the Turkish textile industry still yields foreign trade surplus.

A broken hip is one of the most common injuries among elderly people all over the world, and its recovery process is long and delicate one which requires special attention from both the injured person as well as any caregivers who may be providing assistance. According to medical studies, individuals suffering from a fractured hip are at a high risk for re-injury during the first two years.

Here are some other alarming statistical facts: and the risk of falls increases proportionately with age. At 80 years, over half of seniors fall annually. tures in the elderly are due to falls.

And, it is also possible to give some cost related facts for hip fractures in the of orthopedic hospital beds and cost the NHS (National Health System) about developed at Imperial College London, which uses an energy-absorbing material known as Armourgel that hardens on impact in a similar way to protec-

Thus, clothes having this material protect elderly people from breaking their hips when they fall.The reward given by the Royal Academy of Engineering to Dr. Daniel Plant, who is developing the material, is as fascinating as the development itself. Dr. Plant is one of eight researchers to be awarded up to ÂŁ85,000 by the Royal Academy of Engineering to help start businesses based on technological innovations. It is also stated that The Enterprise Fellowship Scheme will also provide such researchers with one-to-one mentoring from business entrepreneurs to help them commercialize their ideas.

Turkish Ministry of Economy, Turkish Ministry of Development, Serhat Development Agency (SERKA), Reliable Sustainable and Environmentally Responsible Production Association (GUCDER) and Amsterdam Municipality came together to start the project “21st Century New Production Zone in Textile: Production Zone Responsible for Human and Environment”, one of the most comprehensive economic movements in the textile industry with the cooperation of public and private sector in Turkey.

Environmentally friendly production Development Minister CevdetYilmaz attended presentation of the project at a meeting held in Istanbul. The project launched with the idea of

“sustainable life” responsibility, targets to make Anatolia a hub of responsible production for human and environment in textiles starting with Igdir, Agri, Kars and Ardahan provinces. The first step of the project was realized with Denim Factory built for FGTekstil of FG Group with an investment of 2 million investment which will be folprojected to buy 100 Euro-products for the world markets from their Igdir factory by 2017. Gaining

the fame of the first human and environmentally friendly denim production base of the world with FGTekstil’s investments, Igdir city has already started to market made in Igdir labeled products.

The project, which aims to make Turkey a production base responsible for human and environment, will contribute to the prestige and image of “Made in Turkey” origin worldwide. Speaking at the meeting FuatGozacan, Chairman of the Board of FG Group, said, “Turkey has been

progressing to build up international brands in all fields. This progress will end up with adding value on Turkey’s textile industry for ‘Made in Turkey’ products, too. The better thing is that we take pride of having the first production responsible for human and environment in the world.

Human and environment concepts are the most important factors for prestigious brands of the world. We now add ‘made in Turkey’ feature in addition to these sought after features as being human and environmentally friendly.”

New employment areas Gozacan stated that the project would initially cover the provinces as Igdir, Agri, Kars and Ardahan adding that the production centers would be

set up in these regions would provide employment for 4,500 heads. He also explained that each city would be the main production center for different products, FuatGozacan, Chairman of the Board of GUCDER and FG Group, added, “It is planned that those investors who will invest in Igdir, Kars, Ardahan and Agri provinces would be supported with 10 year-incentives and with 90% tax exemption with a 40% investment contribution.”

Women’s employment to increase Gozacan pointed out that the project would be one of the most comprehensive public and private sector cooperation projects adding that another task of the project was social responsibility. “The contribution of women to economy

and production supports the development of the region on the one hand our people employed at contemporary conditions contribute to sustainability standards and economy and peace. With the standards we will set a company will save 48% water, 68% steam, 57% electricity and 57% time. We will make green production possible with these standards and open the gate of sustainable production.�

Competitive price against Far East The project covers the idea and conditions of producing at contemporary conditions at most reasonable prices to reduce the costs to minimum level which leads the way to offer at most competitive prices in international arena.

Each city will be the base for different product groups: Igdir will be the center of denim because of its nature with agriculture-rich economy while Kars will be specialized in non-denim fabric and product manufacturing because Kars is famous for animals and livestock. Agri will be the production and supply base for combed cotton and tricots because the economy of the city has great capacity of agriculture and stockbreeding. The income level of the city is very low and it was listed among the most priority zones to be developed. Ardahan is planned to be the center of knitting products. The city is good at agriculture and stockbreeding but not good at industrial production or tourism. The project will contribute to the economy of the city a lot.

Business world is concerned about the negative effects on growth and employment of rising rates of interests while capacity utilization, industrial output and exports seemed promising. Especially exporters have felt themselves squeezed on both sides, the financial costs and currency rates.

While talking about the recent decision of Central Bank to raise interest rates, Chairman of IHKIB, Istanbul Apparel Exporters Union, Hikmet Tanriverdi, said that the SMS-

-

-

-

Bs will pay the bill. He said, “If CB would take this decision in December by using other tools, the problem would not become chronic. The decision has destabilized the balances. This may not be a final cure for the problem. CB lost its control over financial instruments and act in line with the wishes of financial speculators.

Interest rates boomed more than expected. It means that the interest rate applied to small and medium sized businesses will be about 20 percent. Cost of money has increased radically. SMSBs will be in real trouble. Economy is not composed only of CB, the government is expected to take effective decisions to protect the producing companies.”

Ismail Gulle, Chairman of ITHIB, Istanbul Apparel and Raw Materials Exporters Union, also shares the views above. He said that the cost of volatility in interest rates and currency rates would be paid by real economy. Gulle said, “CB has been forced to raise the interest rates. It postponed the decision at the beginning but then it adjusted it heavily. CB should behave more courageous. Under present conditions, realizing export targets will be a great success for exporters

in the mid term. CB should review and reverse it decision on interest rates. Currency rates have to be kept in line with inflation rates gradually.

The value and prestige of Turkish Lira has to be protected against other currencies.”

Cem Negrin, chairman of TGSD, Turkish Ready Made Industrialists Association, expressed its expectation about that the CB is aware of our needs for more stabile currency rates and makes this with small adjustments. Our exporters wrote loss in last month if they did not forwarded their transactions. They were already operating on the margins in the global arena. If they have to burden an additional cost of currency volatility they become red and Turkey will also loose.

Kemal Sahin, chairman of Sahinler Holding said, “CB raised the interests by five points unexpectedly. This will harm real industry seriously. The joint effects of rising costs of foreign currency and the money will once again destabilize the balance of the economy. But, I believe that, having built on strong bases Turkey will overcome all the problems she had encounter before the coming elections, and will prove herself that she is a powerful state in the global arena.”

While some people enthuse about the ‘steel of the 21st century’, others warn against expecting too much from the use of carbon fibre materials in large-scale motor vehicle production for reasons of technology and cost. While proponents provide proof of feasibility with automotive bodies manufactured entirely from carbon fibre reinforced plastic and / or individual bumper beam or tailgate components made from this miracle material with the high-tech image, the devotees of conventional materials tend to be dismissive: too expensive, not suitable for large-scale production, too difficult to

recycle. Nevertheless both sides are aware that textile research institutes have had encouraging research successes. One of the institutes is the Institute of Textile Machinery and High Performance Material Technology (ITM) of the Technical University of Dresden with a 3D textile pedestrian collision protection system in the bonnet of a motor vehicle and Textechno, a company from MĂśnchengladbach with a drape test device with the potential to set standards.

Targeting technological feasibility A new milestone has now been set by the Cluster for Lightweight Design in which eleven research institutes have pooled their expertise. After two years’ work it is a fact: Germany will be one of

a small number of countries who in a few years time will be able to automate the manufacture of fibre composite components in reproducible qualities for medium and large series production. With the EUR 3.5M it has received from the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the German Federation of Industrial Research Associations (AiF) the Cluster has the aim of developing materials and technologies to the level of series production for the effective use of textile reinforced plastic components. Thanks to this interdisciplinary collaborative research knowledge and user data is available with which the processing costs and the energy input required can be tangibly reduced. To demonstrate the perform future a demonstrator was produced in

a very rigid topological structure using a hybrid construction. The robust lightweight component is a strong candidate for use as a support structure in motor vehicles and consists of duroplastic and thermoplastic components on the basis of textile reinforced structures.

As Heinrich Timm, head of technology networks at Audi AG, explained to textile technicians in Dresden, lightweight design is essential and in spite of the high material costs it is a ‘key factor’ in emission reduction. High performance fibres in composite components are a valuable addition to the portfolio of lightweight design materials. For example the Audi A8 Coupé already has 21 components made from carbon fibre reinforced plastic. His view is that against the background of the increasing global demand for carbon fibre reinforced plastic components up 17 percent year on year, the challenge is to industrialise the processing technology which for decades has been regarded as a ‘cottage industry’. Thomas Strobel is a future thinker and he believes that textile research, which is developing in particular fibre-based high-tech materials and substrates as well as the technologies required to do so, faces a number of other challenges in addition to radical cost reduction.

Lightweight textile-based design will only have a potential in the longer term when from an en-

Continuing focus on cost question Nevertheless the technological advances are not able to avoid the question of carbon fibres still costing too much. Carbon fibre reinforced plastic components are derived from crude oil and have a price per kilogram of EUR 200; at EURO 2.50 the cost of comparable steel components is 80 times (!) less expensive. This disproportionate cost currently leads progressive thinkers in automotive design such as Dr. Stefan Kienzle, head of research and prototyping of lightweight design, material and production technologies at Daimler AG, to only see complex carbon fibre reinforced plastic components as a ‘short-term goal’, while generally increasing expertise in carbon in his company.

ergy and environmental perspective there is a satisfactory resolution of the methods for raw material recovery at least to the degree that this has been done for metal. And: in the medium term carbon fibres do need to be manufactured from a different raw material than crude oil.

Lightweight design ideas to mitigate the consequence of collision While the future of lightweight design provides fodder for strategy debates, more and more innovations in carbon fibre reinforced plastic components are making headlines. This results, for example, in automotive engineers saying good-bye to the ‘simple bonnet plate. From research into textiles comes a proposal for

an improved pedestrian collision protector in the form of an intelligent bonnet. In the Dresden based ITM working in cooperation with the Aachen Institutes for Textile Technology (ITA) and Motor Vehicles (ika) an integrated passive protection has been developed from textile spacer materials and incorporated in the bonnet of the VW ‘Golf V’. In addition to its mechanical function this insulating 3D structure has acoustic and thermal properties and is intended to absorb the impact of the collision between man and machine in such a way that the heady injury criterion (HIC) values, critical for survival, are met in line with EU regulations. Textile research is also looking in other directions. One example is fibre composite

materials that help components to repair any damage themselves. Just as the human body gradually heals itself following an injury, certain fibre composite materials are cable of regeneration after they become damaged. According to researchers at the Institute for Textile Chemistry and Chemical Fibres (ITCF) in Denkendorf, innovative new composites should restore their original material properties after a small crash for instance. It is said that special polymer technologies have already been able to achieve up to 30 continuous repair cycles – either independently or induced through UV light or heat. In addition self-healing materials enable totally new safety features: they could help to maintain and / or restore the functionality of tyres and windscreens for example.

Speeding up transfer on the agenda According to the German Textile Research Council it is the speed at which research is transferred to industry which is ‘decisive’. So with a view to global competition managing director Dr. Klaus Jansen welcomes the policy of the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology to reduce the time this transfer often takes with two interlocking incentive programmes. The Central Innovation Programme for small business (ZIM), for which businesses with up to 500 employers (previously 250) are eligible to apply, provides public nonrepayable funds to reduce the time it takes to

transfer topics from the preliminary research of the institutes as part of the programme of Collective Industrial Research (IGF) and then to speed up the development of industrial prototypes. “This fits in perfectly,” says Jansen pointing to several lightweight textile design projects also for the benefit of the automotive industry.

One example of this development is the topic of manufacturing reproducible pre-forms.

Collaboration between research institute and small business has developed automated spreading concepts to apply adhesive locally for the production of pre-forms setting a further efficiency principle for the mass production of fibre composite structures. The core task was to establish a CNC controlled automated process chain including laying, spraying and cutting technology for multi-ply fabrics that need to be laid down without creasing as a single layer or stacked for further processing on/in the form of the finished component. Another example is the automated drapability tester. When manufacturing fibre composite components, the drapability i.e. the ability of reinforcement textiles to adapt to the three dimensional form of the component contours specified in the design plays a decisive role. Anyone wanting to undertake large-scale production of highprecision, fibre-based semi-finished products in qualities that are reproducible requires, amongst other things, a standardised test methodology to characterise the drapability.

ic needle felts and pressed woolen felts. They are used in sanfor machinery and in textile printing machinery. They are indispensable for production processes in the textile industries.

What is important in felt business?

There are certain points to be taken into account during the application of our products.

We inform our buyers and users of felt while delivering the orders. Each product has unique applications manuals. Basically, they are related with the amount of heat that the felt will encounter. It is important to decide on the

right product for right temperatures. The second point is related with the amount of pressure. The third is the environmental conditions including steam, moisture, liquids and chemicals. We help our customers to decide on the best product that answers their needs.

On other benefits offered to customers We are acting kind of advisors and consultants for our customers. We help them to solve their technical problems with our expertise in the field. For most of the products we sold, we also give mounting services on their machin-

ery. This reduces problems caused by wrong applications and means a chance to educate users during mounting process.

What distinguishes you from your rivals There are many competitors in this field. Some of our rivals are dealing with other products such as machinery sales or other materials.

We have been focused only on felt production and sales. So, we have a well-educated staff and a good amount of experience in our field. We know problems and both solutions related with felts used in machinery and industries. We also have the widest range of products and are able to offer every kind of services needed by our customers. Also our prices are the most competitive when our services are taken into account.

On forecast about 2014, new products, imports and exports Developments signal that the year 2014 will be a tough period. However, we want to pursue an aggressive development strategy by launching more new products backed by an active marketing push both in domestic and export markets.

We target to grow more in the products and sectors that we have advantage. We will participate in more fairs both in the country and in abroad.

Additional points to add Change and innovation has always been a major guide for our company. We are trying to read our industries, our region, our country and the world in micro and macro terms. If every one of us does our jobs responsibly, a better world will emerge, we believe.

Energy and material efficiency keep costs down The focus of the conferences was on technology for fabric production. The technology lectures of the German machinery builders were hold in two parallel sessions “production, finishing and dyeing of knitted fabrics” and “production and finishing of woven fabrics”. In their presentations, the experts and engineers from Germany convincingly demonstrated that German technology is ahead when it comes to higher productivity, product quality, reliability as well as new or upgraded products such as technical textiles. High attention was paid to the issue of energy and

material efficiency since it is a key to succeed in keeping costs down and so to increase profitability. Life Cycle Costs was an important topic also during the lively panel discussions after the lectures. To put it in a nutshell: The initial price for a German machine pays off after a few years due to low maintenance costs and reliability in production. The reason behind this is that the investment costs represent only about 10-50 percent of the overall costs that occur during the entire lifetime of a machine. There are costs which are often not transparent at first glance and prove the German proverb “Buy cheap, buy twice”.

Customised, high performance Monforts stenters are available as a central feature of the latest drying and coating installations for floor coverings. “Monforts has produced a number of stenter installations for drying and backing systems for modular carpet tiles, rugs, mats, textiles and other floor covering applications,” says Jürgen Hanel, Head of Monforts Technical Textiles Division. “The latest Monforts stenter, the Montex 8000 Series, is the most advanced carpet tile pre-coating stenter in the world – it’s a masterpiece,” said Jürgen Hanel. With a maximum width of 6.2 m the Series 8000 TwinTherm has a minimum six chambers with 12 burners.

“Each chamber has a separate burner for top and bottom to obtain a temperature differential,” Jürgen explained. “The web passing through the chambers are quite different on each side. “One side is the surface you normally see and walk on and is a fibre that has a lower melting point. The other side has adhesive latex that is applied to fix the fibres into

a primary cloth. “This is the reason for building the oven/dryer chambers with separate temperature control in the top and bottom of each chamber. “It should be remembered that every structure in the world has to have floor covering and this will not change. The economy may take time to recover but floor coverings will still be in demand. There may well be fewer dealers selling it but there should be a lot of customers,” added Jürgen. The floor covering industry has certainly gone through significant changes in the past few decades, and Jürgen confirms that carpet tiles – also known as modular carpet – have now become the most used floor covering above wood, broadloom and other alternative surfaces in the commercial sector.

The global carpet tile market is now worth an annual $2.7 billion. The USA is currently the biggest market with a 32% share, followed by Ja-

pan with 13%. Modular flooring is particularly popular in US corporate and governmental offices, as well as in institutions such as schools and hospitals, as a result of its durability, along with ease of installation, maintenance and replacement. While carpet tiles still have well under a 50% market share almost everywhere but Japan, substantial future growth is particularly anticipated in developing economies. It has been estimated that between 1.6 and 1.8 billion m2 of new floor space will be needed each year between now and 2025 to accommodate China’s urban migration; this yearly increase is the size of the current US market. In addition, India is expected to add between 700 and 900 million m2 a year.Russia and Brazil have also become significant markets for growth, while a number of Asian countries are following behind China as low-cost manufacturers.

Once again, flat knitting machine manufacturer STOLL has set new standards in the knitting world. Due to the unique yarn carrier technology, the newly launched CMS ADF-3 knitting machine offers many features for innovative knitting when it comes to structural technique and color combinations. It combines all previously known yarn carrier technologies with its newly expanded functions to create a powerful flat knitting machine. The CMS ADF-3 is multitalented. For designers, it offers outstanding options for turning creative ideas into reality. It has the ability to produce stunning, never-before-seen

patterns. For the company H. Stoll GmbH & Co. KG, the CMS ADF-3 represents a milestone in the evolution of the STOLL knitting machine. “With the CMS ADF-3, we have made a decisive step forward in the future of knitting,” explained HeinzPeter Stoll, CEO of H. Stoll GmbH & Co. KG. “For knitting machine manufacturers, the market remains exciting but tense.” The heavy concentration of supply markets in the Asia Pacific rim and the enormous order fluctuations represent a challenge for the company that Heinz-Peter Stoll faces with complete confidence, mainly because the company is continuously

re-evaluating its direction. “We have no problem competing fiercely with other companies in our market.” With our innovative drive and focus on service, we will stay true to our motto “’quality first,’” added Heinz-Peter Stoll. The CMS ADF-3 will hold its own in the intensely competitive market mainly due to its broad area of application.

The CMS ADF-3 is setting new standards with its 16 rails, equipped with two yarn carriers each.

Knitting functions from previous machine generations have come together in the CMS ADF-3, including, of course, multi-gauge and flexible gauge features. This has resulted simple handling and faster programming. Our universal yarn carriers are designed for use in any knitting application. The CMS ADF-3 covers a gauge range from E 10 to E 18, including multi-gauge gauges. What makes the CMS ADF-3 so versatile is its’ advanced yarn carrier technology, which is based on 32 motorized yarn carriers. They move independently from the carriage and can position themselves vertically or horizontally. Positioning is controlled by the pattern program. This configuration opens up almost unlimited possibilities for the user regarding patterns and color combinations. When it comes to plating, the benefits of flexible yarn carriers are particularly

-

-

-

-

-

noticeable as its inverse plating allows you to create any conceivable color combination. With intarsia plating, color nuances can be added to individual or multiple pattern areas. The CMS ADF-3 enables color fields of less than 1” to be knitted. The efficiency of the CMS ADF3 knows no equal. This is a result of more efficient knitting sequences that reduce the stroke. Faster retrofitting times when changing patterns lower the machine’s downtimes considerably. Even its ergonomic improvements have generated several benefits for the user, who is sure to appreciate them when working with the machine on a daily basis. These include the sliding bobbin board, the V-shaped yarn control (installed in a low position to ensure that the yarn carriers don’t cross each other) as well as many other features.

tor. Serhan Filibeli said that the machine, with its gauge of E 24, offered a full range of possibilities when producing stylish outerwear. The managing director went on to say, “We can change the patterns very easily and we are very pleased with the efficiency of this new machine. We can reach top speeds during production.” To make sure that he is on safe ground, he only processes polyester yarns but he does intend to use other yarns in the future.

Serhan Filibeli also sees a great potential for producing net curtains on the ML 46.

Trützschler Switzerland AG is the youngest member of the Trützschler Group, adding the business unit of filament spinning lines to the product portfolio. The first Trützschler BCF lines will start production soon. Meantime, the first steps have been taken: The reorganisation in Winterthur under new technical and commercial management is largely completed; during integration into the Trützschler Group, important milestones have been reached, and the first new system orders are en route to the customer. Thanks to the great trust placed in the new company by existing customers and new investors, the first Trützschler filament lines start production now. The relaunch at the end of last year coincided

-

with a dynamic carpet yarn / BCF market, which showed a high level of interest in the reliable technologies offered and the attractive delivery times. In addition to various 2 and 4 end BCF machines, update packages for existing lines could be finalised in the most important markets.

Sales arguments are the high flexibility of the BCF systems, which process polyamide 6 as well as polyester and polypropylene without major design changes, and the Swiss texturing technol-

ogy HPc. Thus, Tr端tzschler Switzerland remains a significant provider within the rapidly growing Chinese investment market for high-quality PA6 yarns for sophisticated contract and automotive carpets. The fact that the current products are successful and the order books are filled is an incentive for the Management in Winterthur to steadily press ahead with product development.

New developments in the BCF and industrial yarn segment are reaching market maturity.

bales to 109.5 million), and an increase in world ending stocks (+1.2 million bales to 97.6 million). The largest country-level revision was to China’s production estimate, which rose 1.0 million bales to 33.0 million. Other important changes to harvest figures were for Pakistan (-300,000 bales to 9.7 million, Argentina (+225,000 to 1.1 million), and the U.S. (+118,000 bales to 13.2 million). In terms of consumption, the only notable country-level revision was for Pakistan (-200,000 bale to 6.2 million). Global trade figures were also mostly unchanged, with the only significant revisions being for Mexican imports (-100,000 bales to 1.1 million) and Pakistani (+100,000 bales to 500,000) and U.S. exports (+100,000 bales to 10.5 million).

PRICE OUTLOOK Consistently absent from the list of revisions have been changes to China’s 2013/14 import figure. At 11.0 million bales, the USDA’s current projection is equal to the figure released with their initial set of estimates in May. The forecast indicates

China will import 46% less cotton than last crop year (20.3 million bales in 2012/13, 11.0 million in 2013/14). Thus far into 2013/14, Chinese import data show that cotton imports are 31% lower than they were during the 2012/13 crop year (data available from August through November). While these figures are part of the sum for the entire crop year, and therefore have some influence on the 2013/14 total, they also describe purchases made several months ago. Correspondingly, these data may not provide guidance concerning present and future Chinese import demand. One of the few sources of forward-looking data regarding the global cotton trade is the weekly U.S. export sales figures reported by the USDA. Given that the U.S. is the largest source of cotton imported by China, these data could be considered a gauge of Chinese import demand. Thus far into the crop year, the total commitment (sum of U.S. cotton already shipped and the volume represented by signed contracts for 2013/14 delivery that have yet to be

shipped) of U.S. cotton shippers to China is 59% lower than it was one year ago (1.7 million bales currently, 4.2 million last year) and 55% lower than the average over the past five crop years.

The slow pace of sales to China and stronger sales to Turkey, whose total commitment from U.S. merchants is 30% above their average commitment over the past five crop years (1.7 million currently, five-year average of 1.3 million), have created a situation where commitments to Turkey virtually equal those to China. Even though Turkey is the second largest destination for U.S. exports, this is somewhat remarkable given that China’s imports from the U.S. last crop year were nearly three times the volume sent to Turkey (6.0 million bales to China, 2.1 million to Turkey). The weakness in Chinese import demand could be related to uncertainty regarding how much import quota might be released by the Chinese government. Quota is allocated on a calendar year basis, and even though the amount dictated by WTO guidelines (894,000 tons or 4.1 million bales) was recently released, it is unknown how much more could become available.

Uncertainty surrounding Chinese imports is likely the most important issue for global cotton

price direction. Another source of uncertainty is the production and consumption outlook for 2014/15. Next month, a series of forecasts will be released that will address questions related to supply and demand. The National Cotton Council (NCC) will publish estimates for 2014/15 U.S. cotton acreage at their annual meeting on February 8th. Expectations are that U.S. cotton acreage will be higher next crop year. If West Texas receives more rainfall than they have gotten the past two crop years, U.S. production could increase by a million bales or more. The USDA will release a preliminary set of global estimates and a partial set of country-level statistics at their Outlook meeting February 21st. Although supply and demand figures are relevant for the global price outlook, the most important information for the cotton market in coming months will likely be any announcement from the Chinese government that details reforms to cotton policy. Any details related to Chinese import demand in coming crop years can be expected to heavily influence price movement. Lower levels of Chinese imports should imply higher stocks in exporting countries and downward pressure cotton prices around the world.

Therefore, Brückner sees that it is absolutely essential to invest in efficient and sustainable products, which should be at the same time of highest quality standard. With their production site in Germany, Brückner is in the position to guarantee this standard to their customers

In addition, Brückner is currently establishing a new technical center with a pilot plant for the coating and finishing of textiles and technical textiles at their facilities in Leonberg, Germany. There is no doubt that this will help Brueckner somewhat more to master the challenges of the future. We have conducted an exclusive interview with Ms. Regina Brückner, CEO and Ms. Verena Ruckh, Head of Advertising & Marketing Department, Brückner Trockentechnik GmbH & Co. KG, regarding sustainability, sustainable finishing and their steps with respect to sustainability.

Sustainability has become a management topic which has been intensively discussed recently ever more than before. What made the topic this intriguing?

Sustainability is mainly concerned with new energy concepts to save resources and to preserve the environment. Today, the media and politics are unimaginable without these issues. Already during school or their studies, our children do intensively deal with them.

The resources of our earth are limited and we are responsible for the next generations.

Therefore we should always bear in mind to

102

PANORAMA

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

treat all we find on our earth intelligently and gently. It is the responsibility of every individual person to adapt their behavior. But as a company we bear also the responsibility to produce our product with as little resources as possible and to design them so that they consume as little resources as possible.

Today an increasing value is placed on energy and raw material efficiency in the whole textile production and distribution chain. How does BrĂźckner handle this challenge?

We invest about 5 % of our yearly turnover in product and process innovations and the aspect of sustainability is always in the foreground. We offer for example heat-recovery systems allowing our customers to save up to 35 % energy depending on the process and the machinery configuration. These systems can be retrofitted also to machines of other make. On ITMA 2001 in Barcelona we presented a completely new machinery generation to allow saving another 20 % depending on the application. In addition we offer advisory service regarding an optimization of the energy consumption for the complete

company of our customers. Connected with this we are currently working at a research project dedicated to an energy efficient factory. If one considers the complete textile production chain we are of course only a little component and we are only able to influence actively a part of this chain. But we are obliged to commit ourselves as good as possible in this field. This line of action is solidly anchored in our company philosophy and for us it is unimaginable to do without.

Today’s definition of sustainability involves permanently sustainable development in both the economic and the ecological and social realms. How would you define sustainability in textile finishing?

First of all we have to achieve that the issue of sustainability gets more and more connected to the production of textile machinery and production lines. Up to now it is not enough to know that we as Mechanical Engineering Company are in a position to further energyefficient and resource-saving solutions. Sustainability in the textile finishing sector means to consider in principle the following aspects:

104

PANORAMA

-

-

-

-

-

Use of the most efficient machines, intelligent linking of processes and sequences, prevention of standstill times and waste as well as using the residual energy of air and water. The concept of sustainability describes the use of a regenerative system in a way allowing to keep this system with its main characteristics and to allow a regeneration of its assets in a natural way. The central idea is as follows: On the long run we cannot and must not live at the cost of people in other regions of the globe and at the cost of future generations.

Environment, economics and society do influence each other reci procatively. On the long run there will be no economic and so-

cial progress without intact environment. And we will not succeed in protecting our environment effectively as long as human beings have to fight for their subsistence. Sustainability affects all fields of everyday life and can be achieved only by international cooperation.

(Source: Wikipedia and bne-portal) How does Br端ckner view its obligation to the environment?

Protection of the environment is an indispensable issue for all industries and in the end also for each individual. As a company we can contribute in many ways. We strive continuously to work as resource-saving and

106

PANORAMA

-

-

-

-

efficiently as possible in our production, our sales and our service. In parallel we are developing products which can work clearly more efficiently than the products of other producers. For our customers we are the best contact if it gets to line configurations, process engineering or energy efficiency.

Can you brief Brückner products with 4 main sustainability aspects which could be summarized as energy, environment, efficiency and ergonomics?

In the development of our products sustainability is for many years in the first place. Lets consider as an example our main product, the stenter. This textile dryer is not only used in the classical textile finishing process but also in the coating of technical textiles or plastic, in the carpet industry and in the consolidation and finishing of nonwovens. With our new dryer concept presented in 2011 our customers have the possibility to save an enormous amount of primary energy. In parallel the environment is preserved by the reduction of the CO2 emission and the customers can benefit at the same time of the

increased productivity and thus increase their turnover. In addition our lines are so designed that they can be easily and clearly handled despite their complexity. Different energy saving concepts rounding our can be individually used for almost any type of line.

Can you brief us the economic advantages of the Brückner products? In which period these investment costs can be amortized by the manufacturers?

Let’s look at the family of our ECO products. Our heat-recovery systems pay back already from the first day and are a good investment for the future. With these lines which can be retrofitted anytime also for machines of other make, it is possible to save up to 35 % of energy. With a subsequent exhaust air cleaning system it is possible to solve exhaust air problems and to meet the legal regulations. If one considers the continuously increasing energy prices, the payback time of such systems will decrease also in future.

Depending on the application and the process the actual payback time is already less than a year. Our new dryer generation pays back also within the shortest possible time. Our customers

-

do not only benefit of the saved energy but also of a higher productivity and low emissions.

Have you encountered resistance from textile manufacturers, or have you found that they’re eager to work with you to reduce the energy and water consumption?

Our customers are very interested in these issues, in Europe as well as in Asia. On the one hand regulations must be met (mainly in Germany and Europe, but to an increasing degree also in other countries) and on the other hand many textile finishers are asked by their own customers, the

big purchasers (Wal Mart, Karstadt, H & M etc.) to optimize their consumption of resources. The difficulty is rather that the pay-back for such investments is still too long and that our customers do often need financing. We can offer this under certain conditions but many banks are unfortunately very critical regarding the textile industry.

Will BrĂźckner try to ramp up communications and PR around environmental issues?

Of course we want to get more active in communication and PR around these important issues. On the one hand we want to present

107

PANORAMA

-

108

PANORAMA

-

-

of course our own products and increase the awareness of our customers for these issues. But on the other hand we want to be an example for other mechanical engineering companies and other industrial sectors which have not yet gone so far with their developments in the field of sustainability. The more companies we can inspire and convince for activities in the field of

-

-

sustainability, the bigger is the contribution we can make for our environment. Since summer 2011 we are a partner of the BLUE COMPETENCE sustainability initiative launched by the VDMA (German Engineering Association). With this initiative our strengths and our knowledge are bundled in this field and we can affirm and further our role as technology leader worldwide.

What are your final remarks to the world markets regarding on sustainable innovation and production?

We feel that more companies should dare to think on the middle and long term and reduce their energy consumption step by step. Even if the investments do not pay back immediately, we will achieve step by step another way of thinking.

Meanwhile, nearly 1.000 units worldwide are serving 24/7 to make a dye house a more transparent place. The new communication media opened new horizons for THEN. Today it is possible to involve new units into the established system like iPads or tablets. With the integration of these units into the dye house system the user also can make use of all the new features linked to the new technology.As a consequence, maintenance and control of the machine can happen from home or wherever it may be necessary to check on the performance. Calibrating sensors with the iPad: it’s child’s play. Just walk around the machine with the device in your hands and check sensor after sensor. Operating a dye house has never been so easy due to the de-centralized and flexible access. On

top of that the new system is based on a standard BOX-PC with LINUX operating system as controller- guarantor for reliability today and in the future. It goes without saying that the new DYNET PLUS control system is compatible to the established DYNET system. All the existing dyeing-programs run by a DYNET controller can be transferred to the new system and vice versa. Same counts for the integration into existing machine groups. As part of the FONG’S group, THEN provides high quality solutions for dye houses worldwide. The THEN AIRFLOW ® system still today sets standards in terms of sustainable and economical dyeing and finishing, whereas the infrastructure with highly customized dye house management systems provides tailored solutions out of one hand to assist the customers with his daily duties.
