1975-2000 

In the year 1975 a big step towards higher production was made. A modern yarn steaming machine and one of the first fully automatic balling machines were installed. In this year the demand for handknitting yarns increased suddenly. One year later a new building for the raw material stock and the opening & blending department was built. 

At the beginning of the 80ies there was also a big demand of woollen yarns for knitting machines. The export of handknitting yarns to foreign countries was also expanded and further increased.

In the year 1984 Bartle Fischer died at the age of 81 years. A life full of work, 61 years, for the woollen mill was finished.

The fifth generation of woolen spinners began a new chapter in the history of the company, when Klaus and Karl-Heinz started their work in the mid 90ies.

A complete rebuilding of the woollen mill was planned and realized in 1998. A modern building out of wood was built where a new spinning plant was installed. It brought a improvement of the yarn quality and a rationalization of the production. In the same step the blending machine was replaced by a automatic box. 

The new generation of the Fischer family has now the best conditions to carry on the long tradition of their forefathers.

The hard work of the founders was not for nothing!
