Digital textile printing technology specialist Kornit Digital is taking another step towards on-demand apparel production with the acquisition of Custom Gateway workflow software.
“With Custom Gateway, Kornit will revolutionise on-demand digital textile production with a unique end-to-end solution, giving us a powerful competitive advantage in the market,” claims Ronen Samuel, Kornit Digital CEO.
Custom Gateway provides cloud-based software workflow solutions that handle all steps in on-demand production business models.
The platform is used by over 300 leading sports, fashion, and content brands – including the UK’s largest fashion retailer Next.
It enables content sourcing, creation, content management, and display at the front end. Orders created are captured by a robust order management system and are directed to the appropriate back-end production sites using sophisticated algorithms.
Once orders proceed to the production floor, they are smartly routed and managed, to allow for efficient on-demand production on a mass scale.
