The Filament Factory has a distinguished heritage that traces back to Hoechst, KoSa, Performance Fibers and Durafiber Technologies. With the new entity of The FilamentFactory, the Bad Hersfeld yarn producer will be a stand-alone company for the first time in its history. In an ever evolving market, the company now has the flexibility to adapt to the swiftly changing high performance market. As one of Europe’s most respected sites, Bad Hersfeld will continue its legacy of commitment, reliability, growth and innovation in their core markets.

The production site in Bad Hersfeld, Germany, has a long history of filament production. The site has been designed by Hoechst in 1963 only to finish the build three years later in 1966. 
 
At its prime in 1971, the nearly 100,000 square meter site housed 2200 employees. This number has come down due to automation of the different processes. Besides employees, the volume being produced is decreasing year by year. However, the number of meters produced has been going up for decades. The site is gradually changing its core business to ever finer counts.
With different acquisitions, from Hoechst to Durafiber, the production site has proven its ability to adapt. For over 50 years, the Bad Hersfeld site has been an impregnable fortress.
With the birth of The FilamentFactory, the site will continue to serve the industry as it has been doing for more than half a century.
