The history of our passion
What began in 1940 with Anton Tischhauser sen. as a very small business can now present itself as a globally active group of companies. Tisca is an independent, family-run company and can thus guarantee a reliable and lasting partnership. As a full-service provider of high quality textile products for indoors and outdoors Tisca brings together four divisions under one roof: carpets, fabrics, textiles for the transport sector as well as textile sports turfs. Only one thing has remained the same since the day of our foundation: the insatiable passion for everything we do – TEXTILE PASSION.
