The Fujian Changle-based enterprise covers an area of around 607 hectares, of which the plant and ancillary facilities account for around 100 hectares. The total investment in the company amounts to almost 6.6 billion RMB. The Highjet Group is oriented towards science, technology and the requirements of the market and builds on the technical advantages of the entire industrial chain. It focuses on the production, sales, research and development of a wide range of textile products, including professional swimwear, high-quality underwear, sportswear, hosiery and seamless garments.

The Highjet Group relies on first-class equipment and machine technology for its success. The company has been working with KARL MAYER for around 20 years to equip its warp knitting department. Both partners benefit from each other's special expertise and are in close contact. The Chinese manufacturer appreciates KARL MAYER's ability to understand its needs and expectations and to develop solutions in line with market trends and consumer preferences. For the experts at KARL MAYER, the backing of Highjet Group is the greatest motivation.

“We realize that the trust and support of our customers are the driving forces behind our continuous progress,” says Xu ZiWei, Head of Machine Sales of the Warp Knitting Business Unit at KARL MAYER (CHINA).

The newly agreed sub-project stands for the success of the seamless, efficient cooperation and for the innovativeness of KARL MAYER. Xu ZiWei and his team will continue to intensify their collaboration with the Highjet Group in the future. The aim is to explore and open up new market opportunities and development areas together.

“We are convinced that with the joint efforts of both parties, we will certainly implement even more successful projects and realize a win-win vision that is beneficial to both sides,” says Xu ZiWei.
