Textilcolor AG acquires Schoeller Technologies AG

TEXTILCOLOR AG, a prominent innovator in textile chemicals, has announced the acquisition of Schoeller Technologies AG, previously a subsidiary of Schoeller Textil AG. This acquisition strengthens TEXTILCOLOR’s international market presence, enhances its technological capabilities, and creates new development avenues for future-ready textile and chemical innovations. Schoeller Technologies AG will now operate under TEXTILCOLOR’s newly established "Brand Management" business unit.

“This acquisition is a strategic milestone in our long-term growth plan,” said Detlef Fischer, CEO of TEXTILCOLOR AG. “We are acquiring not only renowned technologies but also a highly skilled team with unique expertise. Together, we will continue evolving these products to deliver future-ready, sustainable technologies to our clients.”

Hans Kohn, former COO of Schoeller Technologies and now Head of Brand Management at TEXTILCOLOR, commented, “Both companies are united by a shared vision: to develop high-performance, sustainable, and innovative textile solutions for a responsible future. Our longstanding partnerships and customer relationships will remain unchanged in quality, while our partner network will be further empowered by TEXTILCOLOR’s expanded capabilities.”
