The football World Cup is in full progress and everybody is observing
the football players on the field. Their clothes and abilities are always under
discussion. As manufacturer for circular knitting machines Terrot has a great
interest in sportswear and football clothing.
The global knitwear market has strategically developed over the past
years. The demand of athletic and sportswear is growing year by year and shows
great potential. Until 2020 the share of knitwear fabrics is expected to grow further.
The sportswear sector will drive the future growth. New technologies like the
transfer technology by Terrot are important to support the positive drive.
The traditional manufacturer from Germany is known for its modern and
innovative technologies, which have been
meeting the constantly changing market and costumer requirements for 155 years.
One of the latest innovations is Terrot’s UCC 572-T which features the
production of fine gauge transfer fabrics up to E24. The model is perfect for production
of modern and innovative sportswear textiles and can knit combinations of
single and double jersey structures in the upper gauge range as well as hole
structures. This transfer technology is so precise that it is possible to
influence the clothing characteristics during the knitting process – single
knit areas boost breathability and double knits are essential for more coverage
and adding texture to the final fabric. Experts call this technology “Body
Mapping”, which is particularly of importance for creating comfortable sports
apparel of perfect fit and functionality.
Around the world the UCC 572-T und its fine
gauge technology enjoys a high level of trust. Leading sportswear brands, e.g. Nike
are convinced of this technology already: Nike goes ahead and supplied
different National Teams, like Brasilia, Portugal or England for the football
World Cup. Their Nike Vapor Kits are specially crafted by applying this knitting
technique, called “Nike AeroSwift Technology”. Compared to standard transfer
machines up to E18, Nike emphasizes the new technology is lighter, more sweat
absorbent and approximately half the weight of traditional fabrics for
sportswear.
The UCC 572-T is
Terrot’s flagship in the production of sportswear and has an excellent
reputation on the market. The model convinces from start to finish with its
sophisticated transfer technology and before the end of the football World Cup
it will be proven: Terrot and the UCC 572-T are already the world champions in
fine gauge transfer fabrics up to E24. With regard to the football World Cup Terrot
and its jerseys will be World Champions on the field, because both teams –
France and Croatia – wear shirts based on Terrot’s fine gauge transfer
technology.
