History with future in mind

Since 1903 the name Weiske is connected and committed to the topic of yarns.

Eponym and founder Carl Weiske was an agent for a major spinning company in England: "Fine Spinners and Doublers in Manchester" for whom he sold yarns in Northern Bavaria.

Despite a lot of adverse circumstances during the following decades the company remained privately owned by the family Weiske and survived war and slackening of economy. Lead by the founder's son, Dieter Weiske, the company started exports to Western European countries in 1962. Later on the company expanded to France and the USA.

The assembly of an own and modern logistic centre in Oberkotzau an der Saale was a prominent step to ensure and extend the recognized favourable market position in 1979.

With Thomas Weiske, the next generation came to the fore in 1991. Besides of the proven, traditional qualities he pursues for the first time a holistic company philosophy: Highly motivated employees, collective goals, a measurable increase in quality and optimal customer orientation with new service concepts become the corner stones of Europe-wide success.

This consistent pursuit of perfection brought us the bavarian quality award.

And the track record continues... day by day!
