Getzner Textil increases turnover by 10 per cent
The Getzner Textil Group recorded sales of around €490 million in the past fiscal year, representing an increase of around ten per cent compared to 2022. The family-run company also received numerous awards in the areas of family friendliness and sustainability.
‘Our approximately 1,600 employees are at the heart of Getzner Textil and play a crucial role in our success. Their dedication and expertise have enabled us to further bolster our position as a leading supplier in the textile industry,’ emphasises CEO Roland Comploj. The positive development in sales in recent years has enabled Getzner Textil to invest in research and development as well as in the expansion of its headquarters in Bludenz. The new production hall, with a total investment of €27 million, will expand the company grounds by an area of 4,320 m². It is an investment in the future that lays the foundation for technological progress and further growth.
Outstandingly Family-Friendly
With the expansion of its childcare services to include the first company childcare centre in nature, ‘Buntspechtle’, in 2023, the family business once again set an example for the compatibility of family and career. This level of commitment was once again honoured with the ‘Outstanding Family-Friendly Company’ seal of approval and a nomination for the national ‘Family and Career’ award.
Sustainability at Getzner
Sustainability is a key priority at Getzner Textil. In addition to sustainable construction methods in the expansion of the plant, the company has long focussed on more resource-efficient production. ‘The new production facilities are operated with maximum energy efficiency, which supports our endeavours to produce textiles as sustainably as possible,’ adds Comploj. Getzner has also operated its own district heating network for years, to which the primary school and kindergarten in Bludenz have been connected since 2023, along with many other public buildings. For 2024, investments are also planned in the area of photovoltaics with an output equivalent to the electricity requirements of around 270 single-family homes. This commitment is evidenced by numerous awards and certifications such as ISO 50001 and Ökoprofit.
Shared successes
well as corporate fashion and technical textiles. ‘With our four business units, we have positioned ourselves well and were able to achieve encouraging results despite the challenging economic conditions,’ emphasises Comploj. In keeping with the company's values, it will continue to operate with economic moderation in order to maintain its course for success.
