Fred. Schmetz GmbH, Germany, has been a leading manufacturer of quality machine needles since 1851. Both in industry and in the household programme, it is considered one of the major manufacturers of sewing needles, known for greater strength, longer life, and precise workmanship, which is crucial for perfect seams. In addition to the above-mentioned, their most modern needles are also colour-coded to make them easier to distinguish from each other. The upper band of colour on the needle cone represents the type of needle, and the lower its size.
