I always thought Fragile was started as Transmat was moving in a harder, more dancefloor direction (Transmat releases at the time of Fragile's inception included "Energy Flash" and "die Klang Der Familie"), and Fragile was a sublabel which would continue to explore the more emotional and melodic strand of techno. Of course, Transmat eventually veered away from stuff like 3Phase or Joey Beltram, and by now it seems strange that many Fragile releases didn't come out on Transmat anyway, but Fragile has its own reputation by now and so the main difference between contemporary Fragile and Transmat records is probably that the higher-profile, album-producing artists will show up on Transmat.
