Gabel Grows Export and Retail Business with First Major Investment in Durst Alpha Series

Gabel store - retail collection

“The face of retail is changing,” said Michele Moltrasio, Chairman and President of Gabel Group. “Today many of the orders involve printing hundreds of metres instead of thousands of metres as in the past, but numbers of orders are going up hugely. Retail shops want different designs and colours every two to three weeks because they want to continue developing new ideas and new collections. As we continue to expand our export market, which we anticipate will double within a year to around 20% of our business, digital will become even more important because virtually every European country has different specifications for its linen requirements. The Durst Alpha 330 is a perfect fit for us.
