Since 1968, when Klopman introduced the concept of poly/cotton work wear fabrics to Europe, there have been many exciting developments and events in the history of Klopman.
The following sections include details of some of major developments together with information about the key management personnel who have been responsible for planning and implementing the strategy which has lead Klopman to the position it is in today.
Among the many reasons for Klopman's success, expertise in manufacturing and total dedication to service are undoubtedly two of the most important – you will also find detailed information about these areas and a summary of the main benefits and advantages of choosing Klopman fabrics.
Structure.
Klopman is totally committed to offering the best possible levels of personal customer service. This is achieved through an extensive pan-European network of dedicated and strategically located sales representatives, agents and distributors, together with Management and Marketing headquarters in London, integrated Manufacturing and Sourcing facilities in Frosinone, Italy, greige production facilities in Monastir, Tunisia and European Sales headquarters in Dusseldorf, Germany, as well as an extensive network of agents outside Europe.
Since his appointment as President, Giuseppe Rodinò has been the driving force behind the multi-million dollar investment in new technologies which has been so instrumental in firmly consolidating Klopman's position as Europe's leading manufacturer of workwear, protectivewear and casual apparel fabrics.
Anticipating the massive changes which have taken place in fabric manufacturing – and made at a time when many manufacturers have been reducing the commitment to their operations – this investment has been specifically designed to ensure that Klopman will continue to be in a position to meet and respond to customer requirements. And, as a direct result, maintain a world-renowned reputation for quality, consistency and innovation of product and service.
