Peter Zinser, Head of DyStar's Asia-Pacific Region, stresses the significance of this acquisition: “Texanlab is a big addition to our range of products and services for the textile industry. It supports our vision of building a bridge between international textile retailers, brands and mills in Asia."
"We facilitate color development and color communication and help our customers with implementation in the textile mills. Through Texanlab we can now test textiles to ensure they meet the necessary quality and ecological specifications.”
DyStar is owned by Los Angeles-based investment firm, Platinum Equity and is the global market leader in textile dyes and has steadily expanded its offering for the textile industry. In 2002 it acquired Color Solutions, the leading supplier of color standards for the textile industry, and now offers the most extensive and best-established color communication system on the market.
Following the acquisition of Rotta in 2005 and Boehme in 2006, DyStar now supplies a full range of textile auxiliaries as well as textile dyes and services.
