COTTON YARN FROM
GEBR. OTTO IS THE
FINEST, THAT CAN
HAPPEN TO YOU. SPUN
WITH PASSION AND
MANUFACTURED IN A
SUSTAINABLE WAY. FOR
THE BEST FEELING YOU
CAN WEAR.
Heritage since 1901 has firmly anchored the art of spinning in our DNA: our experience can be felt and perceived firsthand right down to the finished textile.
Future since 1901: Looking ahead is a tradition at Gebr. Otto. Yarns - and visions - have always been spun in beautiful southern Germany. Above all, we set standards in technology: thanks to our cross-technology know-how and our own engineering team, our textile solutions are ahead of their time. Our dyeing plant is second to none in Europe.
As a family business, we are committed to values such as a sense of responsibility, entrepreneurial foresight and a sense of duty. But we owe our success not least to our dedicated employees. Many of them have been loyal to the company for decades, some of them even in the second or third generation.
We choose our cotton according to a very simple principle: only the best quality. This requires a sensitive instinct and relationships with the best suppliers that have grown over decades. Cotton since 1901 stands for the finest natural fibres from safe origins and cultivated in an eco-friendly way. Every fibre that goes into the spinning process meets our high standards.
The process of manufacturing the best yarn made in Germany is just as high quality as the raw material itself. The sustainable production of the yarns is strictly controlled by independent institutions and external laboratories. The perfect combination of the best cotton, high-tech spinning and environmentally friendly dyeing is an art in itself and ensures the incomparably good feeling of the textile on our skin.
The best thing that can happen to you. The high-quality yarns and twists of our Cotton since 1901 brand are a result of innovation and quality made in Germany.
We know the exact path of the textile supply chain: from the raw material to the finished yarn. With our transparent production process, we are setting a sign for sustainable textiles. In harmony with nature, environment and people. We owe this to our customers, to the product and to our business location Germany.
The quality seal of Cotton since 1901: our label assures the buyer of acquiring a product made of finest cotton yarns.
