The fabrics of Backhausen GmbH commend an ancient tradition in the field of industry manufacturing.  It seems that, already from 1810, the business of Jakob Backhausen was among the first to produce the most prestigious fabrics of fashion.

In the following years, the production was passed into the hands of the son, Johann Backhausen, that gave the definitive name of the business: Johan Backhausen & Sonhe.  The partnership with the Wiener Werkstatte, in the first years of the 1900s, brought this small manufacturing company to achieve an international success.  His creations in the Jugendstil style adorned the Austrian Art Nouveau, commissioned in all of Europe.

Still today it is possible to admire the collection of fabrics and designed weaves in collaboration with the Wiener Werkstatte dating back to the pre-war years.  The Backhausen GmbH continues its production of the highest quality and the most sought after in the world for its decorated fabrics.
