Unifrax and Lydall are now Alkegen
Alkegen joins two of the world’s leading specialty materials manufacturers to create one new, innovation-driven company that brings to market the most efficient and effective materials ever.
Technical Needle Felt Plays a big Role for us
For more than 45 years, GUTSCHE has been a world leader specialising in the development and production of textile filter media and needlefelts.
Environmental Protection for our Future
Thanks to our filter media, particles can be filtered out highly efficiently, ensuring for example optimal flue gas cleaning.
All Ears on the Market
With our audiovel® brand we have developed a needle felt which combines the highest demands of acoustic applications: noise protection, flexibility, flame resistance and environmental compatibility.
It was a vision which initially motivated our founder Eugen Gutsche. He recognised the unique properties of needle felts and envisioned a new generation of sophisticated filter media. As it was not yet recognised how important air pollution control would be one day, Mr. Gutsche was well ahead of his time. From the vision to the global market leader: As part of the international Lydall Group we stand for highest performances in textile engineering. We continue to expand our goal - being close to our customers around the world. This enables us to react quickly to different market conditions with great expertise and flexibility.
Among our customers are companies from various sectors with individual and demanding requirements. Standard or high-end products - we find the perfect solution in close cooperation with our customers. As your partner, we support you in all relevant process stages: We deliver comprehensive solutions from a single source - from the first idea, through the planning, the production and the installation to the after sales service.
We place great importance on research and development. Our highly-qualified employees drive the development of new textile solutions for our customers forward with perfectly customised engineering services and great passion for innovation. We are proud to significantly influence the market development in textile technology with our innovative brands and patented products.
As part of the Lydall Group, we have representatives around the world. With our production sites and distribution locations we ensure flexibility and the highest delivery performance. This enables us to react to the wishes of our international and local customers without delay.
We are proud that our high-quality textile filter solutions are premium products for air pollution control. We also implement this principle within our company through sustainable action and the responsible use of resources.
