Expertise and fun at work.
Why we do what we do is because we are particularly good at it. For three generations, we have known what is important when it comes to corporate fashion, textile labelling and selecting the right garments. We have constantly optimised our production processes and adapted them to new, modern standards.
Modern standards? Things looked different in 1951...
Let's start at the beginning. 1951 Eduard Klostermann from Heiligenhaus founds the company ekaha. What sounds so complicated and mysterious is a combination of name and place of foundation - Eduard Klostermann Heiligenhaus. As our grandfather had always been familiar with textiles, in 1951 he made the acquaintance of an American company that manufactured textile printing machines and was looking for sales staff in Germany and Europe. A great synergy quickly developed and the business took off. However, there were no "standards" back then - so they improvised a lot and quickly converted an old caravan into Europe's first mobile textile printing company. Grandad Ede then took it on a European tour. Denmark, Norway, France, England, Spain... back then, it was all possible without having to speak a foreign language... with sign languages.
