OUR
GOAL

NOT THE BIGGEST BUT THE BEST

Here at Devan we focus on the development of unique and innovative solutions with added value for worldwide textile markets. Research & development is at the heart of the company. That’s because rather than being the biggest, we want to be the best. It’s also one of the reasons we love co-creating with customers. This way, we can ensure our tailor-made solutions fit your specific demands.

OUR
BELIEF

SUSTAINABILITY IS OUR PRIME CONCERN

We believe in sustainability. It’s why we have incorporated it into our business strategy in three ways.

  • Corporate sustainability: we try to integrate sustainability in every company decision, large or small.
  • Product sustainability: we create solutions with a minimal impact on our planet.
  • Concept sustainability: we search for new concepts that help make the final textile products more sustainable.

Moreover, we encourage our customers towards the same direction by offering environmental alternatives that work.

OUR
TEAM

A TEAM OF PASSIONATE CREATORS

At Devan we are convinced that people make and shape the company. Behind our wide range of solutions there’s a devoted team of engineers, innovators, scientists and futurists. A team with different backgrounds and nationalities, but all driven by the same passion. A team that actively tests its own inventions, even outside the controlled environment of a laboratory. In other words, a team that makes things happen.
