Based on its constant concern with innovation and customer satisfaction, the Impetus Group has taken another step forward in technological development. The Portuguese company, world leader in the textile sector, is currently using 3D modeling to develop new collections, allowing it to design, visualize and adapt the product before it is manufactured.
This 3D process allows the company to present a digital offer very close to reality while reducing the response time both in terms of modelling and adjustments. But the advantages don't stop there. Changing the colour, zip, mesh structure or other accessories are now just a click away.
All this development allows a time saving and efficiency in the production of a final sample that has been revolutionized the textile industry by reducing the prototype production. This contributes to greater sustainability with the reduction of resources, materials and waste used.
The software used by the Portuguese company's professionals allows physical samples to be scanned, which offers a number of benefits, such as a precise visualisation of the garment, its wearability and how it fits the silhouette, as well as offering a very realistic view of the product. Simple and intuitive, these innovations follow the latest trends in the sector and allow a faster and more effective response to the constant needs of the market.
With this new development, the Impetus Group reinforces its commitment to research and to the multidisciplinarity of its teams, with a constant focus on employee training and specialization. Currently, it is possible to develop projects from a vertical perspective, which allows the various departments to have all the information available simultaneously and immediately.
Impetus GROUP: In 1973, EmÃlia and Alberto Figueiredo created a small textile business. Today, and just a few decades later, the Impetus Group has become one of the leading companies in the textile sector worldwide. Six people, four machines and a family dream have become the launching pad for an industrial and commercial presence with a truly global dimension. Driven by almost half a century of experience and a commitment to customers and the community, the Impetus management team remains solidly based on a family base, with a new generation that continues to believe in the same values.
Today, the brand is proud to have one of the most complete vertically integrated structures in Europe, supported by several departments, which include R&D and Logistics. The improvement of this structure guarantees flexibility and capacity to offer customers a service of the highest quality and adjusted to their needs.
Although Impetus started by producing only underwear and loungewear, the experience and know-how they have acquired over the years, together with the significant investment in new technologies, allowed them to expand the portfolio to a wide range of technical products, such as clothing work and sports, betting on underwear with and without sewing.
