Since 1961 BIELLA SHRUNK PROCESS has been devoted to improve and automate the fabric finishing technologies. At the base of the researches there is the tradition of the long wool finishing experience acquired internationally. In the same year the first autoclave decatising machine KD (registered trade mark) was made and quickly reached a worldwide diffusion thanks to its permanent finishing and to the guaranteed dimensional stability. Beside the several attempting to imitate our performances, nowadays over 1,200 installations are working all over the world, confirming the market leadership.
