As the fashion industry evolves at a swift pace and consumer preferences grow more varied, the urgency for innovation in fabric and design has intensified. Our customer, Zhejiang Wanjie Textile New Material Co., Ltd. has dedicated itself to the research and development of innovative textile materials and practices in recent years.
This commitment aims not only to improve their technical capabilities and product quality but also to align more closely with market demands and facilitate the in-depth progress of the textile sector.

Upgrade machinery helping to pursue new paths in differentiated competition field

Wanjie Textile is acutely aware that maintaining a competitive edge in the market requires constant technological innovation. Therefore, with the continued support and advice from the ILLIES China team the company recently again invested more than CNY 20 Million for intelligent transformation by purchasing further warp knitting machines and warp preparation machines from Karl Mayer.

The commissioning of further Karl Mayer machines not only significantly increases productivity, but also makes it more suitable to produce warp-knitted fabrics with higher precision and density. This strategic move has successfully expanded Wanjie Textile's product line and satisfied the market's demand for high-quality fabrics.

Functional warp knit fabrics to meet modern consumer needs

The company has adopted a differentiated development strategy, shifting from traditional product manufacturing to the creation of functional fabrics designed for outdoor activities. It emphasizes the high-end market by offering functional products, successfully transitioning from a lower tier to a premium segment.

According to Mr. Xu Haijie, General Manager of Wanjie Textile, the company’s products are widely used in several categories, including swimwear, yoga pants, cycling clothing, and sunwear. The fabrics offer both comfort and functionality. Wanjie Textile customizes yarns and develops new products with skin-friendly softness, excellent resilience, and comfort tailored to market demands.

Wanjie Textile not only fulfills the demands of the domestic China market but also exports its products to the international markets, leading to a consistent influx of production orders. In the first quarter of this year, the company reported a 20% increase in sales revenue compared to the previous year, a remarkable achievement driven by its stringent quality control and perceptive grasp of market needs.
