unspun is a fashion company with technology in their veins.
Their latest innovation, Vega™ mixes fashion and sustainable innovation. This first-of-its-kind 3D jacquard weaving machine makes woven garments straight from yarn. And skips the weaving, dying, cutting, and sewing of fabric that’s traditionally involved in producing garments.
Vega™ – which won a Time’s Best Invention award in 2021 – has the potential to fix issues with today’s complex global supply chains. Deployed in microfactories, it eliminates the need for large order quantities while reducing transport emissions and lead times.
In July 2023, they will open the world’s first 3D-weaving-powered microfactory. And plan to set up the next facility in Europe in 2024.
