Leading flat knitting solutions provider SHIMA SEIKI MFG., LTD. of Wakayama, Japan announces the release of its new subscription-based design software, as well as two other web services to enhance its user experience. The new set of products and services is intended to aid in the digital transformation of the fashion industry for supporting business in the post-COVID19 era, in which new work styles and methods are being adopted including teleworking and telecommuting. At the same time, they are geared toward streamlining and improving efficiency to achieve sustainability through reduced waste.

Fiz is the latest addition to SHIMA SEIKI's proven SDS-ONE APEX series design system lineup, but with an unprecedented twist. Whereas previous APEX-series design systems were offered as an all-in-one proprietary hardware/software package, for the first time in its nearly 40-year history of design system development, SHIMA SEIKI has released its new SDS-ONE APEX Fiz as subscription-based design software that can be installed on customers' individual computers. Maintaining proven functions that have made the SDS-ONE APEX series so popular with fashion designers, with Fiz those strengths are now enhanced with the added versatility to adapt to different work styles and environments of the "new normal." Fiz is furthermore available in 5 different flavors that can be selected according to the customer's needs, from Fiz Design Pro to Fiz Design Jr.
