Kornit Digital Offers Optional Production Models to Its Customers
Can you give brief information about Kornit's technologies for the textile industry and the advantages these technologies provide to their users?
As you know, many sectors all over the world have started to seek solutions for a more sustainable life due to the increasing drought in recent years. The textile sector ranks second in terms of water consumption and wastewater. Especially conventional printing technologies, as well as digital printing technologies that require pre-treatment and post-treatment, consume high amounts of water. While Kornit Digital offers zero water consumption production opportunities to the whole world, it also offers optional production models to manufacturers who want to produce as much as they need. The machines and dyes produced by Kornit Digital print on the fabric without applying any pre-treatment liquid (PAT) and provide wearable technologies without any post-drying process.
Can you give information about Kornit's situation in the Turkish market? As MatTex, what can you say about your cooperation with Kornit and the advantages this cooperation provides/will provide?
MatTex is a Mat Group company. Matset A.Ş. for many years. Our group, which offers printing technologies to the packaging and label industry, established MatTex to offer sustainable production technologies to the textile industry as of 2021. Kornit Digital has been serving the Turkish textile industry with reliable printing technologies for many years. It offered HD technology to its manufacturers at the beginning of 2021 with MatTex. In the second half of 2021, it enabled its manufacturers to perform 3D printing thanks to the revolutionary XDi technology it developed in the textile industry. MatTex was appreciated as the rising star of 2021 with its young, dynamic and experienced staff that has been serving the printing industry for many years. While this young team delivers innovations to manufacturers in the fastest and most accurate way, the Turkish Textile sector, which increases its work on branding day by day, started to increase its high value-added production.
2021; Could you evaluate it for both your company and the textile printing industry?
2021, when the effects of Covid-19 were felt, actually saw many changes in the textile industry due to the changing world order. Especially people confined to their homes placed orders on the internet and also requested special productions. While the amount of stockless, waste products is decreasing day by day, the textile industry quickly adapted to this new business model. Mat Group closed 2021 in a healthy manner and with success beyond its expectations. Even in our first year as MatTex, we managed to be remembered as a rising star in the textile industry.
