The "Blue Order" is the largest in our history.

There was a lot of fuss and fuss at the weaving mill during the fall of 2018. The reason was not that Christmas was approaching, but around a certain “blue order”. An order that became our largest ever with 48,000 items. The customer and Klässbol customer, Hanne Vedel, is known around the world for her high-quality fabrics in timeless designs for, among other things, the UN headquarters in New York, the Danish Parliament, hundreds of churches and countless homes and businesses.
This particular order job was ultimately to be given as a Christmas present to Danfoss Denmark’s 6,000 employees, and since Thermia in Arvika was previously owned by Danfoss, discretion was important so that the surprise was not spoiled.
98 million meters of blue yarn were used to make 24,000 napkins and 24,000 tablets. It was warped, test-woven, woven, calendered (mangled), sewn, hemmed, made-up, ironed, packaged and finally shipped across the Sound.
The reason why the color blue was chosen by Hanne and her team was because that color is considered to suit porcelain best.
Everything was to be delivered a few weeks before Christmas and when the weaving mill had previously received larger orders, a shorter period could be set aside without disrupting the workflow too much. But this time it was different as it took a large part of the early summer and autumn to get it done. This meant that some adjustments in the workflow had to be rearranged. The production line was strict and everyone really did their utmost to produce the most perfect result possible.
The work itself was a great challenge for the company and a unique opportunity to show that we can take on really large orders.
