Over a period of more than 50 years, Frenzelit has developed into one of the technological leaders in the manufacturing of technical textiles/insulation materials. Technical textiles are the second area of the company’s operations today alongside the production and development of high-pressure gaskets. There are two other areas of expertise too: “expansion joints” and “new materials”. The rule in all four areas is: market positioning is determined by the speed at which the latest scientific findings and processes are implemented. And Frenzelit’s aim as innovation leader is to play a prominent role here.
Innovations today for the world tomorrowFrenzelit-Werke GmbH & Co. KG develops, produces and sells high-pressure gaskets, technical textiles for insulation, sealing and filtration as well as expansion joints for plant engineering. About 400 employees work at the production facilities in Frankenhammer and Himmelkron in Germany. Subsidiaries and sales offices in the USA, Russia, the Czech Republic, China and India are impressive evidence of the global presence that the medium-sized company from Upper Franconia in Southern Germany has established. The managing partner is Dr Wolfgang Wagner. Frenzelit was founded in 1881. The production of technical textiles began in 1951. It is mainly this area of the company’s operations that is being exhibited at ISO 08: seven product lines with high temperature-resistant textile fibres for very different applications in practically all industries – with temperature limits of up to 1 100°C.
What all the company’s operations also have in common is the practical implementation of standards that is reflected in the ISO 14001 environmental audit certificate: all Frenzelit products are manufactured by environmentally sound production processes to satisfy the most exacting of requirements in industrial applications. Frenzelit has also obtained ISO/TS 16949 quality certification. The environmental & quality management system means complete transparency in all areas and therefore for all the customers a high degree of security.
