Now, thanks to the TVE T Design tower fan that is finally back in stock, you can get in on the action and take the lead, as the elegant black and white freshness tower easily outshines its competitors in terms of style, comfort and quality. And as for the technology itself, well, give it a try: Get involved and choose a powerful gust of wind, for example, from the total of 6 fan speeds… Are you convinced? Well that’s sorted then!
May often brings a brief spell of colder weather but, based on the experience of recent years, this is followed by a sharp rise in temperatures. Not an exponential rise, but a steep, in fact very steep rise. So before you find yourself up to your armpits in humid, hot, sticky air, you should consider effective countermeasures and take up the best recommendation we currently offer: our new PAC 3500 S Air conditioning unit cools, ventilates and dehumidifies the air – all in one device! And it will be available soon!
Berlin is preparing for emergencies! With a construction time of only four weeks, a hospital with space for 500 coronavirus patients and around 130 ventilators has been built virtually overnight on the site of the Berlin exhibition centre. An empty exhibition centre has been converted. An external wing made from containers serves as a respite area for the medical personnel, as the hospital is a hygiene-sensitive infection area and it understandably may only be entered by people wearing the appropriate protective clothing and masks. But it’s not only Berlin that is gearing up. In many places there are plans for auxiliary makeshift hospitals to be set up in sports halls, exhibition centres or other halls that are not in use to aid the response to a new wave of infections.
The world is at a standstill – and with it hundreds of thousands of sewing machines in Bangladesh, the second most important sourcing country after China for European fashion manufacturers.

High demands on hygiene regulations pose great challenges for the entire industry. Fear is spreading among customers and operators.
