Barmag hosted its Customer Day themed “A New Era. Powered by Innovation.” in Fuzhou on June 28, welcoming nearly one hundred invited customers from Fujian and Guangdong provinces. Georg Stausberg, CEO of Barmag Group, attended along-side the sales and R&D expert China team to jointly present integrated solutions covering the entire man-made fiber value chain.

Centered on the theme “A New Era. Powered by Innovation.”, the event targeted Fujian and Guangdong, China’s two major polyamide manufacturing hubs. It served as a communication platform for key regional clients to deepen strategic local cooperation and jointly explore pathways for the high-end and sustainable transformation of chemical fiber production.

The event welcomed a distinguished senior delegation: Georg Stausberg, CEO of Barmag; Jochen Adler, CTO of Barmag; and Dr. Wolfgang Ernst, CSO of Barmag, accompanied by core teams based in Beijing, Suzhou, Shanghai and Yangzhou. Attendees represented all key functional divisions, including management, sales, project execution and after-sales service. Representatives from SSM and Temco, sister brands within the Rieter Group, also participated as ”new colleagues”. Their presence underscores Rieter’s strategic ambition and comprehensive capabilities to develop integrated full textile chain solutions following its acquisition of Barmag.

Specialists from Sales, Project and Service divisions delivered in-depth briefings to attendees on complete technical solutions from melt to yarn, fully demonstrating Barmag’s comprehensive capability to deliver high-efficiency integrated technical services.

During the afternoon session, the Barmag team accompanied all guests on a guided tour of Fujian Eversun Jinjiang’s production facility. As Barmag’s largest polyamide customer worldwide and a core strategic partner, Eversun Jinjiang has maintained long-standing, intensive collaboration built on complementary strengths.

“Customer oriented” has long stood as Barmag’s principle, with sustainable development embedded into every stage of technology R&D. In future, Barmag will continue to leverage its global R&D network, comprehensive local service infrastructure and integrated technical know-how to increase value for customers.
