Parley presented a limited-edition Pierre Paulin, Chirac Sofa, in collaboration with Paulin Paulin Paulin at Art Basel Miami Beach 2024. The fabric of this collectible piece of design was created using the iconic red polypropylene ropes from the monumental artwork by Christo and Jeanne-Claude titled L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped 1961–2021.

As done for previous Christo and Jeanne-Claude projects, all of the materials used to create L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped, are being reused, upcycled, and recycled. The 3,000 meters (9,843 feet) of red polypropylene rope have been processed by Saxa Syntape together with Parley and Paulin Paulin Paulin, the material has been repurposed to upholster the iconic Chirac Sofa, originally created for Paris City Hall in 1988.

The days of career information took happen in Zwickau on 21st and 22nd of September. In this context and in the spirit of promoting young talents we presented our company and informed interested parties about possible training-courses at Saxa-Syntape. Some visitors were very enthusiastic about our wheel of fortune, where some people could win a very special, limited prize - a bag made of regranulated Christo-material.

End of 2023 our company was successfully certified by TÜV Austria again.

This Monday evening a huge contingent of rescue workers arrived at our company premises around 5:20 p.m. Fortunately, the reason was only the annual exercise of the volunteer fire brigades around Werdau, that played through and tested an operational scenario on our premises lasting several hours. We were live and amazed for what these heroes achieve every day. For us, this was also an instructive fire protection training course for emergencies. It was great we were able to take part of that - as our thank, we were happy to provide food for everyone involved after the exercise.

May we introduce Huey, Dewey and Louie - recently added to the Saxa family. Promoting youngsters is also a top priority for us, which is why we protect our black redstart chicks until they fledge.

We rely on renewable energies. The roof at hall two - the first of several building roofs with planned photovoltaic installation - is is largely completed.

Everyone is in zest for action and full of energy. Our kestrel chicks evolve pretty nice as well, thanks to diligent parental care.

Finally - today was the day. Our knitting machines were moved to their future location - the Red Factory. We haven not spared any efforts to realize that.

The Red Factory is in progression. Soon, our knitting work and technical center will be built here.
