Textil-Studierende der Hochschule Niederrhein auf der Kornit Fashion Week

Die Hochschule Niederrhein war mit dem Fachbereich Textil- und Bekleidungstechnik auf der Kornit Fashion Week (15. bis 17. Mai) in London zu Gast. Fünf Studierende - begleitet von Professorin Maike Rabe und Anna Koch, Fachlehrerin für Gestaltungslehre und Textildesign- stellten dort ihre Looks aus. Entstanden sind die Arbeiten in Zusammenarbeit mit dem hochschuleigenen Forschungsinstitut für Textil und  Bekleidung sowie dem Industriepartner Kornit Digital.

„Art meets Fashion“ lautet das Thema der Bachelorarbeit und Abschlusskollektion der Studentin Anne-Sophie Haupt. Als Inspiration diente der Eco Street Artist Vhils, der mit der Technik des "Abtragens" arbeitet. Es entstehen Décollagen, bei denen er Schichten von mehrfach überklebten Plakatwänden abträgt und hieraus neue Motive erzeugt. Dieses Abtragen von Material hat die Studentin textil übersetzt, indem sie eigens erstellte Décollagen auf Textilien gedruckt oder mit dem Laser Details in die Kleidung einbrannte.

Dieses Abtragen von Material hat die Studentin textil übersetzt, indem sie eigens erstellte Décollagen auf Textilien gedruckt oder mit dem Laser Details in die Kleidung einbrannte.

Unter dem Titel „Shibori - Traditionelle Färbemethoden neu interpretiert“ setzt sich die Bachelorarbeit von Lion Busch mit der Re-Interpretation und Modernisierung der japanische Färbetechnik auseinander. Michèle Lemper greift in ihrer Kollektion „Aspirational Realness“ das Social-Media-Phänomen auf, dass nach mehr Realität in der Selbstdarstellung auf Social-Media-Plattformen strebt.

Die Kollektion „(un)used“ von Franziska Jauch ist das Ergebnis eines Alternativ-Konzeptes zur herkömmlichen Jeans-Herstellung. Kern der Idee: Den Used Look durch Digitaldruck anstatt durch chemische oder mechanische Behandlung zu realisieren.

Die Studentin Nadine Gottwald kreierte eine Modekollektion, fernab von stereotypischer Farb- und Formgebung. „To appear as we please“ ist der Titel ihrer Kollektion, die frei macht von tradierten Vorstellungen und das Augenmerk nicht gleich auf die geschlechtliche Zugehörigkeit richtet.

Die Arbeiten werden ebenfalls auf einem VIP-Event von Kornit bei der FESPA Global Print Expo 2022 in Berlin gezeigt, Europas führender Messe für Sieb- und Digitaldruck, Großformatdruck und Textildruck. Im Herbst folgt eine Präsentation auf der Neo.Fashion erneut in Berlin (5. bis 9. September). Die Neo.Fashion hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, Plattform und Drehscheibe für die besten Absolventinnen und Absolventen der Modehochschulen und jungen Designerinnen aus ganz Deutschland und dem deutschsprachigen Raum zu sein.

  • Derzeit ist ein Trend zur Verlagerung der Massenproduktion von Textilien aus dem fernen in das nahe gelegene Ausland zu beobachten – mit Möglichkeiten zur schlanken Produktion von Kleinserien ohne Bestandsrisiken sowie grenzenloser Kreativität und Flexibilität für Designer und Modeschöpfer – möglich dank der neuen Lösung von Kornit für die Massenfertigung.
  • Außerdem präsentierte Kornit seine Kornit Atlas MAX Poly erstmals öffentlich, eine Lösung für die digitale Veredelung von Textilien in hohen Stückzahlen aus Polyester- und Polyestermischgewebe.

C.L.A.S.S. SMART VOICES: A Spotlight On Water Saving Solutions

According to the United Nations Conference of Trade and Development, the fashion and textile industry represents one of the major polluters of water in the world, with an estimated 93 billion cubic metres of water used per year.

On the occasion of Water Day, C.L.A.S.S. CEO and Founder Giusy Bettoni talked to Sensil® BioCare, Kornit, Ecoalf and Unesco on how their strategies and processes can preserve our most precious, yet limited resource.

Key Takeaways from the Speakers:
"The ocean is absolutely crucial for the survival of this planet, since it almost covers 71 percent of its surface. Writer Arthur Clarke once said: how inappropriate is to call this planet earth, when it is clearly planet ocean."
- Francesca Santoro, Programme Specialist at IOC UNESCO Regional Bureau for Science and Culture in Europe

- Francesca Santoro, Programme Specialist at IOC UNESCO Regional Bureau for Science and Culture in Europe

"Sensil® BioCare is our solution to reduce the persistence of textile waste in the ocean. We embedded technology in it so that if any microfiber is released in the washing, they will break down faster than conventional nylon. Based on an external study, we have seen an almost 60 percent microplastic reduction in two years"
- Michelle Lea, Vice President Global Marketing at Nilit

"When it comes to our printing processes, almost no water is in use and the waste is minimal. We have never seen this before in this industry. Based on LCA tests, when compared to screen printing our "Atlas Max" printer saves up to 93 percent of water, while the "Presto" printer saves up to 95 percent of water".
- Michal Arbel, Sustainability Communication Lead at Kornit Digital

"One of the most important projects of the company is Upcycling the Oceans, with the aim of tackling the marine litter in collaboration with the fishing sector. Last year, we collected 300 tons of litter from the seabed, and we promoted circular economy by transforming the waste in products."
- Irene Diez, Director at Ecoalf Foundation

Blur uses Kornit Digital for Scalability, Operational Versatility, 24-Hour Production

Kornit Digital Ltd. announced that Portuguese textile specialist Blur has installed the Kornit Presto S with Softener solution for sustainable, single-step direct-to-fabric production of multiple fabrics in any quantity. The print services provider, which supports the production needs of high fashion brands has previously installed multiple Kornit Atlas and Avalanche systems for industrial-scale digital direct-to-garment (DTG) production on demand.

Using Kornit’s efficient, eco-conscious, proprietary technology and consumables, Blur provides rapid fulfillment of orders ranging from a single piece to mass production, with an average order of about 500 items. Since implementing the Kornit Presto S, the system has been in operation day and night, producing samples during normal business hours and fulfilling diverse incoming orders overnight.

Since implementing the Kornit Presto S, the system has been in operation day and night, producing samples during normal business hours and fulfilling diverse incoming orders overnight.

Mariano Dias, CEO at Blur, believes Kornit technology empowers his business to adapt quickly to the constantly evolving needs of his clients, which include both larger established brands seeking large quantities and ambitious designers seeking to build a brand with limited risk or investment. In many cases, they are fulfilling different types of designs for clients serving both Europe and North American markets.
“The quality is just outstanding, and some clients only want to print with Kornit technology”, said Dias. “We are extremely happy with Kornit’s collaboration, and our printers are working perfectly around the clock. Any textile printing company looking to move into fashion and work with famous brands will need both roll-to-roll and DTG capabilities. Our recommendation for success is to buy the Kornit Atlas and Kornit Presto printers.”

He added that Blur’s success with its current Kornit systems, as well as increased demand for sustainably-produced textiles, has the business considering the addition of a second Kornit Presto S to accommodate additional volumes.

“As with many of our customers, Blur was built around more traditional textile operations—in their case embroidery—before discovering the vast potential for growth and versatility offered by quick, efficient, digital production on demand,” said Chris Govier, Kornit Digital Europe, Middle East, and Africa President. “Whether you’re serving an internationally-known fashion house looking for more agile fulfillment and simpler supply chains, or the independent creator hoping to bring unique inspirations to life, Kornit’s product portfolio offers continuous opportunities to answer market needs, create new markets, and scale upwards under any conditions.”

  • Launching “Buy That Merch” Platform with Kornit Digital

 
Kornit Digital Ltd. (NASDAQ: KRNT), a worldwide market leader in sustainable, on-demand, digital textile production technologies, announced that United Kingdom-based Save Our Souls Clothing has implemented the Kornit Storm HD6 Lite system for just-in-time production of its “alternative” custom apparel.

(NASDAQ: KRNT), a worldwide market leader in sustainable, on-demand, digital textile production technologies, announced that United Kingdom-based Save Our Souls Clothing has implemented the Kornit Storm HD6 Lite system for just-in-time production of its “alternative” custom apparel. Replacing a fleet of smaller, low-capacity digital direct-to-garment (DTG) machines, the Kornit system has enabled the company to scale its business upward with minimal time and labour needs.

Save Our Souls offers print services to a community of artists “driven by a love of tattoos, music, art, and life,” with a growing catalogue of designs applied to a variety of apparel at the time it is ordered, ensuring minimal inventory waste and carbon footprint. The success of their Kornit implementation, which enabled the brand to produce higher quantities with a single operator while eliminating pretreatments and heat presses from their routine, has empowered them to launch the “Buy That Merch” platform for artists, broadcasters, and musicians to produce and sell their own merchandise directly, without the fees associated with existing online marketplaces.

“With the Kornit, you can print pretty much anything, so when we work with artists, they can just do what they love, and we can print it,” said Marc Carter, Finance Director at Save Our Souls. “It changed everything. We could market more, bring more business on, and we didn’t need as much staff as we needed prior to that, so it’s actually more cost-effective. Our monthly cost has actually dropped, and maintenance is next to nothing.”

Die Kornit Presto MAX ist mit Natur-, Kunst- und Mischfasern kompatibel und verfügt über fortschrittliche Algorithmen für intelligente, autonome Kalibrierung. Sie zeichnet sich durch hohe Druckqualität mit kurzen Durchlaufzeiten und minimalen manuellen Eingriffen oder Defekten aus. Das System wurde auf Kompatibilität mit dem globalen Fulfillment-ÖkosystemX ausgelegt, um die Produktion jederzeit und überall zu ermöglichen. Es unterstützt ein verteiltes Modell zur Produktion näher beim Endkunden, spart Zeit und logistischen Aufwand und sorgt gleichzeitig für Qualität und Konstanz in allen Systemen und Produktionsstätten.

Die Kornit Presto MAX legt den Grundstein für eine intelligente, effiziente und nachhaltige EcoFactory.

GoCustom Clothing Adopts Kornit Avalanche HD6

Kornit Digital announced that United Kingdom-based GoCustom Clothing has installed the Kornit Avalanche HD6 system for on-demand, direct-to-garment (DTG) digtal production. This installment coincides with GoCustom Clothing’s implementation of the KornitX platform, which provides a streamlined end-to-end workflow between the brand’s online customer stores and their production floor.

GoCustom Clothing offers print and embroidery services, and began by providing workwear for local businesses before branching out to school hoodies and uniforms. As their e-commerce business grew and orders became more diverse, GoCustom Clothing determined it was best to add digital DTG production capabilities, which could accommodate both orders of 1,000-plus pieces and single pieces. GoCustom originally invested in a Kornit Storm system for on-demand production, before upgrading to a Kornit Avalanche HD6 for increased capacity.

Kornit Avalanche HD6 can digitally produce numerous apparel types without considerable setup time.  Pallets can be changed quickly to handle different sizes and applications, versus the costly and time-consuming processes associated with screen printing operations. Furthermore, digitizing operations with KornitX,  Kornit’s operating system for on-demand sustainable fashion, means increased control and management of the end-to-end fulfillment process, from front-end steps including design, order management, and virtual catalog to smart routing of orders, production, packaging, and shipping.
