Company

Branded products from ELASTOTEX. Made in Germany.

Each of our bandages is characterized by high elasticity. They are ideal for compression bandages, support bandages, relief bandages as well as for sports bandages and surgical bandages. Depending on the areas of application and requirements, we have developed the ELASTOFLEX and SYLASTEX product lines together with specialists. They differ in stretch ability, fabric structure and tensile strength. Different weaves and materials ensure the best results in therapy and prevention treatments.

Many patients suffering from lipedema, lymphedema, venous disease, sports injuries and other complaints have our products prescribed by a doctor and settle them with health insurance.

The ELASTOFLEX product line is made from 100% natural raw materials such as cotton and natural rubber. In order to ensure the long-lasting elasticity of the SYLASTEX product line, artificially produced rubber threads are used in the production. Our bandage materials are dermatologically highly compatible and ideally suited for professional medical care. The special feature: We take individual customer requests into account. With variable lengths and colors, we complement our range according to your needs. Each of our elastic long-stretch bandages and short-stretch bandages can be used in many ways. They have proven themselves on the market and with our customers for many years.

Prevention and treatment – connect with our diversity.

Company history

Our company history is as elastic as our bandages, as our roots go back to the year 1727 and extend to the present day with special products for special requirements.

1727

Founding

Georg Schöne founded one of the first ribbon makers in Großröhrsdorf to be equipped with hand looms.

1797

Mechanical ribbons and belt factory

70 years later, his grandson set up the country's first mechanical ribbons and belt factory. The main products were belts for all sectors such as the automotive and clothing industries.

1972

VEB

In 1972, the company had to be continued with the nationalization as a state-owned company.

1990

Reprivatization

With the reprivatization in 1990, the family business continued production. In addition to the core range, production was expanded to include medical bandages such as the now well-known Ideal and Pütter bandages.

2013

Closing

But in 2013, a lack of succession planning ends the era of Schöne.

heute

ELASTOTEX bandages

The production of elastic bandages was continued under a new management and a new direction. However, the values and traditions of the Schöne family have remained. They determine our company philosophy today. Sustainability and top quality for every product.
