Contract warp beam manufacturing.
At the Velen Plant II, you will find Europe’s most modern weaving preparation facility: here we warp, size and assemble weaving warps, warp beams and partial warp beams on a contract basis – tailored to your specific requirements.
With a maximum of 18,432 threads, a beam width of 4,000 mm and a disc diameter of 1,100 mm, we process natural and synthetic yarns for you. You can rely on reliable processes and the highest precision. State-of-the-art technology and Velen’s commitment to quality ensure that your warp beams run reliably during further processing and that the results are impressive.
Warping Shop
Precision in 18,432 threads
In the warping shop, the threads are precisely prepared for the subsequent warp. This is where the conditions are created to ensure that tension, synchronisation and thread guidance are correct in the following stages.
Sizing Department
Perfect Application
In the sizing department, the warp is sized in such a way that it can withstand the stresses of the weaving process as effectively as possible. A clean, even application of the sizing agent across the entire batch and the full width of the warp beam is crucial.
Assembly
Loading onto the warp beam
The assembly process brings together the prepared threads from the warp beams onto the final warp beam. This creates exactly the warp required for your production – manufactured to exacting standards and designed for reliable further processing.
Quality and safety in further processing
Perfectly prepared warp beams are the foundation for smooth operations in the warping and weaving departments. This is precisely what our contract manufacturing service is designed for. We deliver clean results, reliable quality and warps that will prove their worth in your subsequent production processes.
Laser-assisted precision
It is during the warping process that the smoothness and cleanliness of a warp beam’s subsequent operation are determined. That is why, in Velen, we rely not only on meticulous craftsmanship but also on laser-assisted thread monitoring and precise process control.
The power lies in the sizing
The sizing process gives the warp threads their finish prior to assembly, optimising them for trouble-free machine operation during further processing. In addition to the composition of the sizing itself, the application of the sizing is particularly important here: we ensure even application across the entire width and length of the fabric.
Groundbreaking technology – environmentally friendly too
Performance and process stability were not the only guiding principles when selecting the technology for our weaving mill. Textile responsibility plays an equally important role in all our decisions. That is why our facility is equipped with groundbreaking water recovery systems that ensure exemplary, resource-efficient operation.

Which warp beam do you need?
Whether it’s regular contract manufacturing, a single production step, or specific requirements regarding yarn, width or thread count: we’d be happy to assess how we can best handle your warp preparation. And if you’d like to use high-quality cotton or viscose rotor yarns for your warp, we’d also be happy to offer you our certified Velener yarns.
