Knitfy the World Knitfy the World

―KNITifying the world―
A new solution proposed by SHIMA SEIKI

SHIMA SEIKI leads the world's flat knitting industry with a rich history of technological innovation.
Having invented the world's first Digital Stitch Control System and seam-free WHOLEGARMENT knitting, we are also known as an industry pioneer.
Now, with original hardware, software and research in new materials, we enter the field of technical textiles.
With "KNITify the World" as our theme, we propose knitting as an alternative manufacturing solution:
What could not be knit in the past can now not only be knit; it can be made to perform even better.
With core technology based on knitting and other textiles, we continue to offer innovative solutions only we can provide.

Clothing has traditionally been divided into two general categories: wovens and knits. Knits are known for their stretch characteristics, and with flat knitting’s unique shaping capabilities, items can be shaped-to-fit.
This fitment is considered especially suited to industrial applications concerning wearable technology, and elastic knitwear and compression garments have become the focal point for safety, protection, sports and healthcare.
