When Techtextil opens in Frankfurt from 21–24 April 2026, Brückner will present its latest systems for finishing technical textiles. The company will exhibit solutions designed to address efficiency, process reliability, sustainability, automation and production quality. Its technologies are aimed at meeting increasing requirements for functional and sustainable textile applications.
At Techtextil 2026 in Frankfurt, scheduled from 21–24 April 2026, Brückner will introduce its current range of systems and equipment for technical textile finishing. The company operates as a system provider offering complete production lines and individual machinery.
The solutions on display are designed to support efficiency, process stability, sustainability, automation and consistent production quality. With growing demands on technical textiles, particularly in terms of performance and environmental considerations, Brückner provides machine concepts that incorporate energy-efficient designs and intelligent drive systems. These systems are configured to align with specific production requirements.
Brückner’s portfolio includes customised technologies for coating applications. These cover foam and paste coating using roller and squeegee systems, adhesive application for laminating processes, and one-sided coatings such as full-surface or dot applications with latex or acrylate pastes. The company also supplies full-bath impregnation systems for aqueous media.
Such technologies are used in the production of materials including abrasive cloth, airbags, blackout fabrics, geotextiles, tarpaulins and roofing membranes. Supporting these processes, Brückner offers drying systems such as the Etro dryer, which is used in printing and varnishing operations. The system can function independently without chain or belt mechanisms and is suitable for solvent-based coatings with low application volumes. Its pneumatically adjustable upper section allows access for maintenance and fabric handling.
The Power-Frame stenter frame is used for drying and heat-setting operations and is equipped with a split-flow ventilation system. It is applied in apparel textiles, digital printing processes, and thermal treatment of materials such as geotextiles, agrotextiles, needle felts and high-temperature filters.
For nonwoven finishing, Brückner supplies thermofusion ovens within the Supra-Flow range. These systems are used in applications including upholstery, mattress materials, insulation and lightweight nonwovens such as hygiene products and wipes. The company also provides high-speed spunlace lines for wet-laid nonwoven production.
In carpet and flooring applications, Brückner will present the Duo-Therm dryer, which enables different temperature settings for upper and lower airflow. This feature supports controlled thermal processing for tufted and woven carpets, automotive textiles, bathmats and artificial turf.
To address energy and environmental requirements, Brückner systems are compatible with multiple heating sources, including gas, thermal oil, steam, electricity and hydrogen. Electrically heated dryers powered by renewable energy sources can support CO2-neutral production processes.
Additional systems for energy and environmental management include heat recovery units and exhaust air purification solutions. These are designed to reduce energy consumption, lower operating costs and comply with environmental standards. The systems are available in modular formats and can be integrated into existing Brückner machinery as well as equipment from other manufacturers.
Brückner will be exhibiting in Hall 12.0, Booth B58 at Techtextil Frankfurt.
