SETEX in the Textile Solutions Group (TSG)

Automation, MES, ERP, CAD, PLM and a shared data platform from one group.

SETEX is part of the Textile Solutions Group (TSG), a group of leading technology providers specialised in making textile production more efficient through digitalisation and automation.

Where the data is created: SETEX within TSG

Much of the data that ERP Systems rely on is created at the machine, as sustainability reports or the Digital Product Passport. SETEX provides the controllers, the machine connectivity and the OrgaTEX MES for dyeing and finishing. Recipes, consumption figures and process values of every batch flow on seamlessly into the group's systems.

What SETEX customers gain from the group

  1. Data from the machine to the ERP: Recipes, consumption figures and process values of every batch from OrgaTEX are available to the Datatex ERP. Integration within the group is well established and considerably leaner than between systems from different vendors.
  2. Reliable data for evidence: ESG reports and customer audits rely on verified data. In finishing, that data is created at the machine, which is where SETEX operates. Within the group, DeSL is responsible for the Digital Product Passport, see textiletsg.com.
  1. One contact for finishing: SETEX remains your direct partner for controls and MES and brings in the right colleagues from the group when needed.
  2. Foundation for AI: Continuous, clean production data is the prerequisite for AI to improve processes and detect problems early. The group is jointly building its solutions on one continuous data foundation. Whoever starts with SETEX today is prepared for this development.

Woventa

The digital backbone of the Textile Solutions Group

One order, one thread – from tech pack to shipped garment.

Recipes in the MES, costs in the ERP, consumption at the machine, the rest in Excel – and when a batch goes wrong, someone pieces the story together by hand. Woventa, TSG's new AI platform, brings this information together: orders, batches and machines in one picture, deviations spotted earlier, decisions made with full context. Keep what works. Connect what matters. Whether your data is ready is settled by a readiness check at the start.

What Woventa is designed for

  • Shared memory – orders, batches and machines from different systems in one picture.
  • Readiness check first – establishes whether controls, MES and ERP deliver the data Woventa turns into value.
  • Read → Assist → Execute – read, assist decisions, later execute under control. Step by step.
  • Your data stays yours – own tenant, no benchmarking.

Woventa is being introduced step by step. Talk to us if you see a concrete use case in your finishing operation.

What is SETEX's role within the Textile Solutions Group?

Within TSG, SETEX is the specialist for the production level in dyeing and finishing. SETEX provides the machine controllers, the machine connectivity and the OrgaTEX MES. This is where the production data is created that ERP, planning and reporting across the group rely on.

What is the benefit of MES and ERP coming from the same group?

Every ERP project is individual and takes time to configure and roll out. But when OrgaTEX MES and the Datatex ERP come from one group, the teams know each other, the integration is proven, and effort and cost are considerably lower than with systems from different vendors. And the group develops its solutions jointly, so your investment still fits tomorrow.

How does the group support the Digital Product Passport?

Within the Textile Solutions Group, DeSL is responsible for the Digital Product Passport. Data from finishing, which SETEX captures per batch with OrgaTEX, can feed into it. Everything else about the Product Passport is on textiletsg.com.

Does SETEX remain my contact if I use other group solutions?

Yes. For controls and MES, SETEX remains your direct contact. For ERP, CAD or PLM, we bring in the responsible colleagues from the group.

Where can I find all companies and products of the group?
