Founded by two brothers in 1994, this facility was created with the purpose of developing their own local brand of swimwear. After a few years in the business, with their acquired experience, they decided to move further into producing for other brands. Today almost a 100% of their production capacity is production for international brands. Here the fabric for The Swim Shorts is cut using a laser machine, achieving extremely high precision during the cutting process, yielding clean and even edges on the fabric, which in turn reduces the risk for shedding microplastics at the edges of the final product as opposed too cutting the fabric with scissors.
