In particular, the ever increasing demand for added-value technologies in the area of Soft Touch has caused Xetma Vollenweider to present, at ITMA Asia + CITME 2008, it's latest machine system which is set to be a pioneer in the market.
Alongside the standard technologies which have been state-of-the-art for years in the market, Xetma Vollenweider is also presenting the new HighTouch System. This is setting new standards in textile finishing, both in terms of production performance and also as regards the quality of the surface effects.

For example, the combination of brushing and emerizing (XEB) in one work stages creates Soft Touch effects with an incomparably high density and a tangibly softer feel - called the "Rose Petal Touch". In addition, using this combined technology, in which brushing and emerizing rollers are used alternately, means that much higher production speeds can be achieved than with single-line technologies as found in other machine systems available in the market.

An increase in productivity can also be achieved by combining the technologies of raising and emerizing (XRE) in one process. This "Moss Touch" that is created by this technology is attractive because of the high volume of the very short, dense pile.

In the area of Even Touch, the Xetma Vollenweider brand is able to look back on more than 120 years of experience and is by far the longest-standing manufacturer of shearing machines. And Xetma Vollenweider has always been one step ahead of market demands. In addition to providing maximum shearing precision, Xetma Vollenweider's shearing systems offer greater cutter durability than any other supplier.
