Equipped were freight- and riverboats, shipping companies and farmers. Arising new fibers such as Sisal and Manila opened new technical possibilities. Starting from 1890 on, the ''Herkulestauwerk'' (lit. ''Hercules cordage'') was used for dragging nets for fishing. At that time Bremen-Vegesack, the former company headquarters, was the port of registry of Europe's biggest herring fleet.〔: („Geschichte: Vegesacker Fischerei“ (''History: Vegesack Fishing Fleet'') by Armin Seedorf on vegesack.de )〕 Starting from 1920 basic researches for standardisation and computation of ropes were established. In the year 1947, the first ropes made of chemical fibres were produced. 1978, the enterprise shifts its head office to Bremen-Blumenthal. 1997, a production is set up in Slovakia, 1999 the enterprise existed 175 years. In his hometown Vegesack (part of Bremen today), the ''Georg-Gleistein-Strasse'' wears the founder's name.〔: „Bremer Strassenlexikon: Band 12“ by Monika Porsch, 2000, Schmetterling Verlag, Bremen, ISBN 3-932249-10-0〕
