We, the Graute GmbH have been one of the leading manufacturers of machines for the nonwoven industry for more than 20 years.
The Graute GmbH was founded in 1997 in Coesfeld by Horst Graute, former head of development for Air-Lay machines at Hergeth Hollingsworth. Together with former employees of Hergeth Hollingsworth a globally successful and now leading company was established.
In 2009 the company was taken over by Norbert Höltker, the head of construction at Graute GmbH at that time. With Mr. Höltker, our company is managed by an expert who can draw on extensive theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of nonwoven engineering.
In November 2019 Norbert Höltker founded Graute Lux S.à.r.l in Luxembourg. 
With the establishment of the branch office, the range of products offered by Graute GmbH was expanded to include the winding technology division. Sophisticated winding systems for web materials are now designed and manufactured in-house.
We are engaged in the development, design and manufacture of machines for fibre Opening, Blending, Carding, Web Forming, Winding, Slitting, Recycling as well as the project and manufacture of complete Airlay and Carding production lines with Cross Lapper and Web drafters.
One of our strengths are also specially to customer specifications manufactured machines for individual applications, as well as reconstructions and modernizations of existing production lines.
