History

"Mads Wiels Bomuldsfabrique" was started in 1813 at Tistafossen in Tistedal. This is how the industrial revolution came to Norway. Textile machines for spinning and weaving in modern factory buildings, with hydropower as the energy source for industrial machines. The factory kept running for over 150 years, before the textile crisis also caught up with Halden Cotton in 1971.
