Consulting & Advisory 

KNIT‑CORE supports you on‑site or remotely with practical, hands‑on consulting for the knitwear industry. Whether product development or production optimization, we deliver tailored solutions and guide you from concept to implementation.

• Product development: yarn and material selection, pattern construction, prototypes, and technical specifications for serial production.
• Process optimization: analysis of your production, removal of bottlenecks, increased throughput and quality, and implementation of lean workflows.
• Quality assurance: inspection procedures, fault analysis, and measures to reduce customer complaints.
• Sustainability: guidance on sustainable yarns, material efficiency, and certifications.

Samples & Production 

As a full‑service knitwear factory, KNIT‑CORE is your partner for sample production and series manufacturing. You receive high‑quality, reproducible garments; customized to your specifications and delivered on schedule.

KNIT‑CORE comes to your production site and works where decisions are made. That lets us spot site‑specific issues, implement immediate improvements, and apply solutions in a practical, hands‑on way.

What you get

• On‑site analysis: Review of workflows, machine condition, and material flow; identification of bottlenecks and inefficiencies.
• Immediate fixes: Direct adjustments to machine and program settings to resolve production disruptions and stabilize quality.
• Implementation: Introduction of optimized work processes, reduced waste, and organizational improvements right on the shop floor.
• Support to serial production: From concept and sample runs to an approved production process; including documentation and test parameters.
• Service & maintenance: Maintenance, fault diagnosis, and repair of your flat‑bed knitting machines, plus preventive checks to minimize downtime and ensure sustained machine performance.

Your benefits

• Faster troubleshooting and measurable efficiency gains
• Reduced downtime through on‑site interventions
• Concrete, actionable recommendations with immediate impact

Technical Textiles 

KNIT‑CORE is your partner for the development and production of technical knitted textiles. We combine deep material and manufacturing expertise with practical product development so you get tailored, high‑performance textiles — from functional fabrics to complex 3D knits.
