MEHLER – LODENFABRIK
Since 1644 the woollen mill Mehler guarantees development, quality and service. Due to full integration of their production with their own spinning, weaving, dye-works and finishing, they offer everything from fibre to fabric: everything they do is 100% made in Germany. Apart from main articles such as classic woollen fabrics from carded and worsted yarn, they also develop new products. „Shine“ is unique by its sparkling effect. In addition the composite „Cody“ is a fabric made for apparel with a smooth fabric on the one side and a woollen fleece on the other side. Both made from 100% wool – for quality and sustainability.
