TOMATEX Otrokovice, a.s. is a company with almost century-long tradition of production of textile materials. First manufacture mostly for a shoe industry was started in started in Baťov (today Otrokovice) by Bata Shoe Company, after the nationalization the production con-tinued under the name Svit and in 1993 by a privatization process a company Tomatex Ltd. was established.

In 1994 the production was extended for materials for the automotive industry, in 1999 the company was transformed into a joint-stock company. Currently the company has around 190 employees, annual turnover is approximately 12 million EUR.

Production program includes besides own production of textile materials also their subsequent processing and finishing. So it forms a closed production cycle which allows both a high flexibility in terms of a complete supply of materials from one supplier and a flexibility required for rapid product innovation and the creation of materials "made" according to customer requirements. If necessary, own production is supplemented externally to satisfy the needs and wishes of our customers as much aspossible.

Currently approximately 70% of production is directed into the automotive field, remaining 30% of textile materials are intended for footwear, fancy goods, sport, medical and other technical purposes. Quality is represented by high and sustained level of all our processes, products and services and is supported by established quality systems to ISO TS 16949 and ISO 14 001. All certificates are issued by TÜV GmbH.
