In 1983 KANNEGIESSER presented the "Ironer line from one source" and started a development which ended the concept of one manufacturer supplying the ironer and another manufacturer the other complementary equipment.
As the structural and technological changes in laundries became fiercer, KANNEGIESSER eventually made the decision to regard laundries as a complete system and, accordingly, to follow the path of developing and offering a harmonized complete range of machinery for the industrial laundry.
In 1990, following the reunification of the two Germany's, an effective ironer production was developed backed by the immense fund of know-how of the former company Textima in Aue / Saxony, today's group member KANNEGIESSER Aue GmbH.
In 1996 Kleindienst Wäschereitechnik GmbH in Augsburg was acquired and restructured into a highly productive manufacturing plant specializing in the transport and conveying sector.
The purchase of the companies Passat and Pharmagg in 1998 represented the decisive step into the so-called wetwork area.
Since that time, Kannegiesser has been a manufacturer of the full range of industrial laundry technology, able to offer a complete range for all individual laundry processes.
Passat was founded in 1949 and is deemed as a pioneer of modern drying and water extracting technology. In the 70's Passat took over the successful tunnel washer manufacturers Poensgen and Voss - no other manufacturer in the world installed more batch washer systems than Passat - so this company was the unrivalled No. 1 with its pace-making batch washer lines Archimedia and Poensgen PWZ.
