About DREF Corporation
Developed and patented in 1973 by its inventor Dr Ernest FEHRER, DREF technology has developed its own niche in the textile industry. Today, DREF machines can be found throughout the world, producing a very wide range of yarns made from animal hairs, recycled fibres from clips, natural and synthetic fibres that are too short to be processed by traditional means and asbestos substitutes.
DREF Technology
The general guideline on the use of DREF machine to process a fibre is that any fibre that can be carded to form a stable sliver can be processed by DREF machines. Contact us to assess your material and intended yarn application.
Resuming operations
In December of 2008, OERLIKON sold the DREF business and technology to DREF Corporation of Malaysia where production of DREF machines has resumed. It is the stated policy of DREF Corporation to maintain the exact standards of Dr. Fehrer in the construction of new DREF machines. This policy has been successfully implemented: DREF 2000 and DREF 3000 machines and their spare parts have been sold to customers throughout Europe, Asia, Oceania, Africa, and the Americas.
