KNITWEAR LAB

KNITWEAR LAB Innovative, sustainable and design-driven knitwear solutions. KNITWEAR LAB develops smart technological applications for knitwear.

At our LAB in Almere - the Netherlands, our team of programmers and designers develops prototypes and run small productions. Our main production inquiries will be handled through our production LAB in Istanbul, Turkey, which is specialized in producing high-end knitwear in small quantities. Our production team of experienced professionals uses their exceptional craftsmanship to create high-end kni

twear. Our knitwear specialists combine material research with latest knitwear technologies, which results in development of smart knitwear solutions. A combination of technological innovation and a design-driven perspective is what makes KNITWEAR LAB truly unique. Sustainable Projects – We have a progressive vision on sustainability. At KNITWEAR LAB we are constantly developing ethical knitwear, that can be made from biodegradable materials, regenerated and certified yarns, or just very beautiful long-lasting materials. Moreover, we make an emphasis on zero-waste production methods. With use of 3D knitting techniques, we are capable of knitting designs entirely out of one piece, without any waste. It is our responsibility to educate our clients on the impact their production has on our ecosystem. Virtual Knitting – Virtual Knitting by KNITWEAR LAB is a revolutionary method of industrial knitwear development: a connection between virtual and material (physical) knitting, which creates a whole new world for sustainable, cost-efficient and design-driven sample development and knitwear production. Virtual Knitting assists the customers in improving the designs on an early stage to create producible and realistic collections, simplify the design iteration process and to show multiple real life colourways. With use of KNITWEAR LAB’s extensive knitwear knowledge combined with the latest 3D software and Stoll Create Plus, a massive waste from the sample and pre-production stages can be reduced. Over the past years KNITWEAR LAB has developed a diverse portfolio with groundbreaking projects. From medical applications like compression stockings to technologically advanced sportswear, and from smart textiles with sensors to renewed yarns from recycled waste: our projects operate at the forefront of innovation! We would love to bring your vision to live. Feel free to reach out if you are interested in collaborating with us!
