Based on decades of experience and the commitment to top quality standards, Groz-Beckert offers its customers more than just a wide range of high-precision sewing machine needles.

The sewing machine needle as core product

The sewing machine needle represents the core product of the Sewing product area of Groz-Beckert. The needles are manufactured to meet the high requirements of today's textile industry. They are characterized by an extraordinary durability and their ability to deliver reliable results even in demanding sewing operations. One example that stands out is the GEBEDUR needle: Thanks to its special coating, it offers increased protection against wear and damage, which significantly increases the efficiency of the production process in sewing plants.

For particularly challenging sewing applications, Groz-Beckert offers so-called Special Application Needles (SAN). They are specially designed for complex sewing operations or for processing specific materials. They include SAN 10 and SAN 10 XS for fine to ultra-fine fabrics, SAN 6 for sturdy denim fabrics, and SAN 5.2 for technical textiles.

In addition to these special solutions, Groz-Beckert offers a wide range of standard needles. With a variety of needle sizes and different point styles, the right needle can be found for every application. This diversity not only provides a high degree of flexibility, but also helps to ensure a consistently high quality of the end product.

Innovative solutions for more efficiency and transparency

Groz-Beckert not only supports its customers in the actual sewing process, but also considers the entire process chain around the sewing machine needle. Particular attention is paid to compliance requirements that brand owners and buyers are placing on sewing companies. With INH Quality Management, Groz-Beckert offers an innovative solution that precisely addresses this issue. With software and hardware components, INH enables the digital documentation of all needle changes, ensuring maximum transparency. This eliminates the need for time-consuming manual processes, significantly increasing efficiency and optimizing workflows in sewing plants.

The aim is to digitally map all processes involving sewing machine needles – from ordering and storage to routine needle changes. With its holistic approach, Groz-Beckert will continue being a reliable partner not only with needles but also with innovative solutions that sustainably improve the efficiency and transparency of the sewing process.
