About Artur Müller & Sons
Artur Müller & Sons has been manufacturing machines for the production of shoelaces, cords and elastic bands since 1949. The family-owned company in Wuppertal, now in its third generation, develops and produces semi- and fully automatic tipping machines, packaging machines as well as lustering and waxing machines for shoelaces, elastic bands and cords. The portfolio also includes accessories, spare and wear parts as well as tested consumables such as acetate film, T-film, lustering agent and metal tapes made of brass, aluminium and stainless steel. According to the company, its machines run reliably for decades; the company therefore offers international on-site service, maintenance and training.
