In the past, the local women embroidered their special holiday clothes. This has developed into a traditional craft, which many wheelchair users are able to practice.
Book covers, wallets, bags of various sizes and now also Corona masks are wonderfully and colourfully embroidered at Lifegate.
In the textile processing department, we produce beautiful touch books made of fabric remnants, which toddlers love to play with and discover a small world.
