50 years of innovation to the service of textile industry
Mr. Alfred GLOECKLER founded the SUPERBA GROUP in 1955, together with three colleagues to manufacture domestic knitting machines. In 1958 a turnover of 3 million francs was achieved due to the sale of 10,000 machines and the company decided to invest in standardazing production.
Whilst promoting the sale of knitting machines world-wide, the group built relationships with spinning companies, which gave them an insight into their manufacturing problems. This led to the creation in 1962 of SUPERBA S.A. - the department of Textile Machines.
This activity led to the development of industrial lines, with the emphasis largely on export for such applications as hand knitting, fibre tows and carpet yarn processing, which later expanded to include yarn-testing equipment.
