Since 1644 the woollen mill Mehler guarantees development, quality and service. Due to full integration of their production with their own spinning, weaving, dye-works and finishing, they offer everything from fibre to fabric: everything they do is 100% made in Germany. Apart from main articles such as classic woollen fabrics from carded and worsted yarn, they also develop new products. „Shine“ is unique by its sparkling effect.
