Agreement with Alpla
Schoeller site gets new owner
Packaging specialist Alpla is the new owner of the historic Schoeller site in Hard. The family-owned company has thus secured additional space near the company headquarters. With the takeover of the approximately 30,000 square meter site, the operation of the Kulturwerkstatt Kammgarn is also secured.
"We are growing and need space for staff and materials. The revitalization of the Schoeller site is the perfect solution," explained Günther Lehner, Chairman of the Board of the Alpla Group. The international packaging specialist, which has its headquarters not far from the historic site, took over the site on June 3, 2024.
New chapter for industrial monument
The industrial site was built in 1896 as a worsted yarn spinning mill for the textile company Schoeller. Until the end of 2023, the Schoeller Spinning Group processed yarn and operated its own dyeing plant. In future, Alpla intends to use the administrative wing for office space and the production halls as storage space.
As the new owner, Alpla will ensure the operation of the Kulturwerkstatt Kammgarn, which has been using part of the factory as an event center since 1996. The existing tenancy will remain in place. "The continuation of the site will create jobs, revitalize the location and maintain the cultural value of the architectural monument," Günther Lehner is convinced.
