Coats Central Europe covers the countries of Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Austria and Switzerland. Approximately 2,000 employees work at 6 locations in these countries.

Central Europe accounts for approximately 10% of the Coats Group turnover, and remains one of the most important markets in the world. Key to this success is the zip fastener factory in Rhauderfehn (East Frisia) and the thread dyehouse in Bräunlingen (Black Forest), supported by the administration function in Kenzingen. In 2004, Coats Central Europe achieved a turnover of 160 million Euro. To find further information on the people who made this possible, click here.
