Germany-based Spindelfabrik Suessen GmbH recently celebrated the delivery of the 2 millionth EliTe® Compact Spindle to Turkey-based Matesa Tekstil San. Ve Tic. A.S. To mark the installation, a small ceremony was held during which Matesa's owner, Galip Çalik, received a commemorative plaque from Kaan Atsu, Suessen area sales director.

The company also owns four open-end plants with more than 12,000 rotors, which produce 1,400 tons of yarn per month. The addition of EliTe compact spindles allows the company now also to process top-quality compact yarns for its own weaving and knitting facilities.
