Office building

In 1951 Hans Stössel becomes the new chairman of the company. The machinery is being renewed during the fifties and in 1958 it is used to full capacity.

The sixties start promisingly. The production capacity is fully utilized and the machinery is modernized further, in particular the weaving department (1964).

In 1970 the production of less profitable products is given up. Moreover, new needling-machines for the manufacture of filter media are acquired in order to satisfy the increasing demand in this sector. Even during the present recession, this demand shows a growth tendency. At the beginning of 1979 Dipl. Ing. Manfred Jaehn is appointed chairman of the board. The company is transformed into a company with limited responsibility (GmbH).

The mother company Dollfus&Noack S.A. sells the majority of the shares to a holding company in 1985, which has been founded by Manfred Jaehn and a group of executives. In the months to come, this holding buys all of the shares and Manfred Jaehn later becomes single shareholder. At the beginning of 1992 TTL is concentrating exclusively on the development, production and sale of needlefelts for a variety of industrial applications. The main focus is on filter media for industrial dedusting processes. In addition to that, the company is manufacturing spare parts for the laundry industry and industrial textiles for a number of industries.

The swedish company NORDIFAGRUPEN AB is acquiring the company from Manfred Jaehn in 1997. At the beginning of 1999, Manfred Jaehn is replaced as general manager of the company by Thomas Lais.

When NORDIFAGRUPEN AB was liquidated in 2001, Manfred Jaehn and Roland Jaehn together with other family members buy the company back. Manfred and Roland Jaehn are appointed as new managing directors. The management of the daily business remains in the hands of Thomas Lais.

Three years after the newly gained independence, TTL is on a stable growth course.

Manfred Jaehn resigns from his position as senior managing director at the beginning of 2005. He transfers the majority of shares to Roland Jaehn.
