"We are willing to keep on learning"

“The health of our employees is our top priority. We therefore introduced efficient hygiene and protective measures at an early stage and also made every effort to successfully implement and adhere to them. The current situation is new for all of us and doubtlessly contributes to the general uncertainty. However, we are willing to keep on learning, to adjust our strategies accordingly and to do everything we can to jointly master this crisis,” says Getzner Textil AG CEO Roland Comploj. The Bludenz-based family business is therefore passionately committed to its membership of a Vorarlberg consortium dedicated to the manufacture of tested and certified surgical face masks for medical use and the healthcare sector. The high-quality and durable fabric required to produce these in large quantities is made by Getzner Textil. As a preventative measure, the company has also made face masks that cover the mouth and nose available to its own workforce as soon as possible. To guarantee their availability, Getzner has set up a dedicated sewing shop equipped with several industrial sewing machines that are manned on a three shift basis.
