Companies

We have been concentrating on the legwear business and working in partnership with our clients for over 35 years. ATAIR® GmbH is now one of Europe’s leading producers of legwear and underwear.

With 35 employees in Germany, we produce and distribute private labels, own brands and licensed brands – in a sustainable, cost-efficient and high-quality fashion.

Modern management and a systematic customer focus contribute to the company’s continuous growth, which has been boosted in recent years in particular by expansion of the business fields to include underwear and loungewear.

ATAIR® GmbH’s core activities include procurement within Europe and its own production in Serbia. One of our strengths is monitoring the entire supply chain – we are familiar with every single process step and are therefore able to directly implement optimisations.

Our clients benefit from short procurement channels and a high degree of flexibility regarding the availability of goods. In this way, we also guarantee compliance with our own and customer-specific sustainability standards.

ATAIR® GmbH has served as a licence partner to well-known top brands for many years, such as Tom Tailor, camel active, bugatti, Völkl and Otto Kern.

Proleter AD is a joint-stock company that was founded in 1961 and since 2006 has been in the majority ownership of the ATAIR® GmbH. Proleter AD stands for a wide range of socks, tights and leggings and fulfils highly diverse customer requirements and wishes – Europe-wide. With 500 employees and over 300 machines, the company produces and distributes 25 million pairs and over 600 different stock-keeping units annually. Every pair undergoes a comprehensive quality control and is hand-inspected. In addition, Proleter AD is certified by OEKO-TEX®, complies with the BSCI Code of Conduct and is a member of SEDEX.

trusted socks GmbH & Co. KG aggregates all B2C e-commerce activities of the ATAIR® GROUP. We deploy agile IT systems and develop partner programmes to support existing wholesale business relationships, enabling us to tailor both broader and deeper product ranges to our customers’ requirements and in turn their customers’ needs. Our internal structures allow us to rapidly strike up new business relationships and introduce new products for the end consumer.

Young, innovative, dedicated and full of ideas – the Belgrade-based company may be just a few years old, but I.H.C. (International Hosiery Company d. o. o.) is already winning over enthusiastic customers throughout Europe with its sophisticated, high-quality garments. It offers a wide range of fashionable products including socks and underwear for women and for men.

SIA Baltic Textiles was established in 1993 as a distribution company for the Baltic region and is now one of the leading suppliers of classic and contemporary household textiles and underwear in that part of the world.
