In 1855, the heir transformed the factory into a textile factory, specializing in military clothing, and a flour mill. He operated both factories until 1895. From 1895 to 1940, a wool mill replaced it, and from 1942 to 1967, the entire facility became an electric motor factory. From the time of the Liberation, approximately one hundred workers were employed. The factory specialized in the manufacture of self-starting motors. In 1958, it received the industrial gold seal for a specific type of motor equipped with Adrien de Gerlache's Antarctic expedition. In 1967, the company suffered the same fate as the spinning mill: it unfortunately had to close its doors.
