Mautner, IsidorMautner, Isidor, b. Náchod (Czech Republic), Oct. 7, 1852, d. Vienna, April 13, 1930, textile industrialist. He inherited the textile company his father Isaac M. (1824 to 1907) had founded at Náchod and enlarged it by new trade affiliates (in Vienna, Prague, Budapest, Trieste, Slovakia) and factories; 1918 the groups included factories at Pottenstein, Günselsdorf and Neunkirchen (all Lower Austria), Ružomberok (Slovakia), Pragwald (Styria), Brodetz and Děčín (both Bohemia), Litija (Carniola) as well as in Monfalcone near Trieste. In more than 40 factories he employed approx. 23,000 people, which made it the largest industrial enterprise in the Habsburg Monarchy. When the Monarchy fell apart, branches developed in the individual countries, partly absorbed by other enterprises; the enterprise broke apart completely during the time of the Great Depression and was dissolved in 1930.
