Developed with over 150 years’ experience, this technology enables embroidery plant owners to embellish fabrics to their clients’ specifications, creating an array of designs ranging from traditional to haute couture. Additional attachments for the application of cords, ribbons and sequins as well as for laser-cutting patterns further broaden the variety of possible creations.
