We are committed to being the best partner for our customers,” said Edward Wang, Vice President and General Manager of APAC for Gerber Technology. “Through our recent Shanghai Innovation Center expansion initiative and the launch of the Gerber Atria™ Digital Cutter, we are proud to offer our customers the best experience and innovations to help them achieve greater productivity and accelerate digital transformation initiatives.”

Gerber’s Shanghai Innovation Center demonstrates the latest innovations for both mass production and on-demand manufacturing, demonstrating how companies can digitally transform their supply chain and achieve best in class performance.

At its annual ideation conference in November, Gerber launched the Gerber Atria Digital Cutter, which provides significant throughput uplift and excellent cutting quality. Since its release less than 60 days ago, 17 different companies have decided that Atria is the solution they need on their digital transformation journey.

“I am very impressed by Gerber Technology’s industry leading end-to-end solutions,” said Peter Liu, Vice President of China National Apparel Technology & Innovation Institute, after he visited the Shanghai Innovation Center. “The automated customization solution that Gerber Technology offers is not only unique, but also very cost-competitive.
