Engineered Knit

Computerizing the weaving of yarn for complex construction

ENABLING KNIT TECHNOLOGIES

Complex Structure and Intelligent Design

Leveraging Flat, Circular, and Warp knitting techniques to create products built for optimal comfort and fit-to-form. Knitting is our bread and butter at Softmatter– we are responsible for numerous breakthroughs in smart yarn knitting and engineered knit over the last few years. Additionally, we are home to the largest Flatbed Knitting facility in South Asia – a facility that fuels much of our knit innovation.
