BEHIND THE SCENES
Knitwear is at the heart of every Marc Cain collection. Extraordinary patterns, innovative knitting methods and outstanding finishes show how much expertise and craftsmanship go into every item. Production on a larger scale only became possible with the introduction of electronically controlled knitting machines in the 1970s. A lot has happened since then.
In our ultra-modern production facilities, which cover an area of 2,000 square metres, we produce around 390,000 knitted items per year on a total of 119 knitting machines - an impressive capacity of around 1.5 million knitted items per year. We use 112 flat knitting machines and 7 circular knitting machines. Our production runs on working days in the now rare, efficient 24-hour operation with three shifts.
