Coloreel in the USA

Coloreel will together with Hirsch Solutions display its instant thread coloring unit at the show Impressions Expo Long Beach

“It feels great to show the Coloreel unit with Hirsch Solutions who is a fantastic company with a huge network. Impressions Expo Long Beach is the ideal show to display the Coloreel unit and start the sales process for the American market,” says Magnus Hellström, VP Sales & Marketing at Coloreel.

Impressions Expo (formerly ISS) Long Beach is the industry’s leading and most advanced decorated apparel trade show and conference. Over 400 top exhibitors come to gain insights into the trade and network with thousands of industry peers.

The first product based on the Coloreel technology is a groundbreaking thread coloring unit that works with any existing industrial embroidery machine. By instantly coloring a white base thread during the embroidery production, Coloreel enables complete freedom to create unique embroideries without any limitations in the use of colors.

“The Coloreel unit has what the American customers want. It can create amazing color effects, provides the right color when you need it and will minimize your stock of thread cones,” Magnus Hellström concludes, VP Sales & Marketing at Coloreel.

Coloreel and Hirsch Solutions will display the Coloreel unit at booth 1637; the customers will be able to see the Coloreel unit produce embroideries never possible before.

Sustainable embroidery materials and digital finishing attract attention at GUNOLD booth

More exhibition space, more visitors, and a high level of international participation: GUNOLD’s concept for this year’s Texprocess 2026, which took place in Frankfurt am Main from April 21 to 24, 2026, was a complete success. “Our decision to showcase our entire product range alongside application examples and expert tips was very well received,” says Marketing Director Stephan Gunold, delighted with the positive outcome of the trade show. The focus was particularly on the Stockstadt-based company’s sustainable products as well as its laser, engraving, and sublimation services.

Delicate by day, glowing by night

Light and color—no other thread combines these two properties as fascinatingly as GUNOLD's GLOWY specialty thread. During the day, it appears in powdery, soft pastel shades, and at night it transforms into a contrasting bright green. Embroidery and decorative seams change their appearance as if by magic as soon as darkness falls.
