Our history

The Timeline

Gründer

In 1944, Albin Breitenmoser and Josef Fässler laid the foundation for a successful textile history in Appenzell. Still today, the alba group, to which weba Weberei Appenzell AG belongs, is an independent and healthy family business.

Sticken

At the beginning, woven and embroidered handkerchiefs were produced and distributed worldwide. Later, weba specialized in the production of finest fabrics for shirts and blouses.

Wrinkle Free

By focusing on textiles with additional functions such as “wrinkle-free” or “natural stretch”, weba was able to position itself as a successful, innovative company in the market segments "business”, “modern business” and “urban”.
