Groz-Beckert

For more than 150 years, Groz-Beckert has supported the machine builders to the textile industry. During this period, Groz-Beckert has developed from being purely a manufacturer of knitting and hosiery machine needles into the most important system supplier of precision components in the field of textiles and beyond.

Step by step, the company has branched out into the business sectors of sewing machine needles, felting and structuring needles and tufting needles – complemented most recently by the important sector of weaving machine parts and knitting cylinders.

High-grade Groz-Beckert circular knitting cylinders provide the ideal complement to the company’s premium range of needles and system components to create an ideal knitting system from a single, reliable supplier.

The company says that it is only with the guarantee of a consistently high standard of component quality and outstanding durability that circular knitting machines are able to reach their full potential for high-performance operation on the factory floor.

Customers are offered a selection of 60,000 knitting cylinders and around 50,000 different needles and system parts for the manufacture of textile surfaces.

Groz-Beckert will display a knitting cylinder for the most popular single jersey machines in Asia with 34” diameter in gauge E44 at its booth (W1 F33).
