Optitex®, a global provider of integrated end-to-end 2D & 3D CAD/CAM software solutions for the fashion, transportation seating, and furniture industries, today announced their collaboration with JML Apparel, a leading provider of digital elastic materials for the apparel industry. The new partnership with JML will enable Optitex users to enjoy a wide selection of soft garment trims, including elastic tapes, cords, and more, to create stylish and comfortable sportswear, cycling attire, lingerie, and leisurewear.
Optitex customers can now benefit from JML’s cloud-based platform, to subscribe and download an extensive range of digital materials from the JML library. The latest Optitex version, O/21.2, includes 30 free newly-added JML digital materials to Optitex Pattern Design Software (PDS) 3D, and 13 free materials added to Optitex 3D Design for Illustrator (3DDI). More materials can be obtained directly from JML via registration on the JML portal, and conversion of downloaded materials via PDS 3D’s Material Converter (for details, contact local Optitex support).
Maria Lando, Director of Business Development at Optitex, said, “We are pleased to support our customers’ digital creation workflow, by enhancing their designs with JML’s rich, high-quality collection of trims, and take their ready garments straight to market. Optitex’s unique combination of photorealistic visualization with pattern-trusted and fit-validated 3D, ensures that our customers will benefit from digital-to-physical uniformity, which translates into significantly fewer returns, and secured brand trust.”
“We are proud to work with Optitex, and make our digital trims readily available to all Optitex users around the globe,” said Jenny Jiang, VP of Marketing and Sales at JML. “We consider Optitex the ideal partner, one that provides an advanced digital design platform where their customers can really benefit from our extensive materials library, and seamlessly integrate a rich variety of elastic trims into virtually any garment.”
