As a result of its integration in the Jakob Müller Group, Benninger will benefit from the sound structures and common ground with regard to technology, production and sales and can therefore extend its operations.
With this acquisition, Jakob Müller AG will be able to expand into an associated business field and profit from Benninger's know-how in respect to textile finishing.
In 2015 the Benninger Group workforce totalled around 330 employees, 110 of these in Switzerland.
As the technological and market leader, the Swiss company develops, produces and sells textile finishing systems as well as systems for tire cord production around the world. Its cus-tomers are active in the premium segment. Benninger offers integral solutions, which include not only the plant engineering but also the required chemical processes. The products are very well positioned for fulfilling current and future demands with regard to quality and re-source conservation. The company also has a process automation division including switch cabinet assembly, supplying third parties as well.
