ADVANTAGES OF PRODUCTION IN PORTUGAL:
In today's fashion industry, the focus is increasingly on sustainability and ethical production. Especially in the context of fast fashion, the question of environmentally friendly and fair manufacturing processes is becoming more and more pressing. Production facilities in Portugal and Europe offer significant advantages over Far East production.
1. sustainability and environmental protection
A key advantage of textile production in Europe is its greater environmental compatibility. Short transportation routes within Europe lead to a significant reduction in CO₂ emissions compared to long supply chains from Asia. In Portugal, many manufacturers rely on sustainable materials and innovative production technologies that conserve resources and are energy-efficient. In addition, European production facilities are subject to strict environmental regulations that regulate the use of chemicals and water consumption.
2. quality and craftsmanship
In recent years, Portugal has established itself as a center for high-quality textile production. The country is known for its expertise in processing natural fibers such as cotton, linen and wool. European manufacturers attach great importance to the precision and durability of their products - in contrast to the fast-moving nature of fast-fashion items from the Far East, which are often designed for short-lived trends and low durability.
3. fair working conditions and social responsibility
Europe has strict labor laws that guarantee fair wages and safe working conditions. This is in contrast to the often precarious conditions in Asian factories, which are known for low labor costs and problematic working conditions. Production in Portugal therefore promotes a responsible supply chain and protects workers' rights.
4. flexibility and speed of response
Thanks to their proximity to the European market, production facilities in Portugal can react more quickly to fashion trends and customer requirements. While long delivery times from the Far East limit flexibility, shorter production cycles in Europe enable more efficient warehousing and reduce the risk of overproduction - a key factor in avoiding textile waste in the interests of sustainability.
5. supporting the local economy and promoting innovation
The choice of European production sites strengthens the local economy and promotes the preservation of traditional craftsmanship. At the same time, European manufacturers are focusing on technological innovations to further develop sustainable production processes. In Portugal, there are numerous research initiatives aimed at environmentally friendly textile processing and the circular economy.
Summary:
Sustainability as the key to the future of the fashion industry
Compared to Far East production, textile manufacturing in Portugal and Europe offers numerous advantages that are both ecologically and ethically convincing. Thanks to shorter transportation routes, sustainable production methods and fair working conditions, European manufacturers make an important contribution to combating fast fashion and promoting a responsible fashion industry.
A conscious switch to European textile production is therefore not only an investment in quality and longevity, but also an active step towards a more sustainable future for the fashion world.

PREMIUM KNIT
Finest Italian yarns – the key to exclusivity
High-quality knitwear – produced with the finest Italian yarns in Portugal
As a production facility in Portugal, we are always looking for companies and brands that focus on quality, craftsmanship and individuality. A particular focus of our production is on knitwear and warp-knitted goods, an area that impresses with its versatility and luxurious feel.
Knitwear & warp-knitted goods – what makes this area so special?
Knitwear and warp-knitted fabrics offer incomparable wearing properties, flexibility and a sophisticated look. They differ fundamentally from woven fabrics because they consist of stitches that make the material particularly elastic and supple. Depending on the technique and yarn, different structures and looks are created - from fine, elegant jersey qualities to voluminous knitwear with a unique feel.
Our knitwear & warp-knitted goods products
High-quality fashion collections (sweaters, cardigans, dresses)
Sports & Activewear (functional shirts, leggings, athletic outfits)
Loungewear & Premium Basics (high-quality T-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies)
Exclusive accessories (scarves, hats, gloves)
Finest Italian yarns – the key to exclusivity
Our knitwear is made from high-quality yarns from Italy, which are valued worldwide for their first-class quality, special softness and unique structure.
By using these noble materials we give our fabrics:
Distinctive feel – pleasantly soft, silky or with a special texture that stands out from standard products.
Perfect fit & comfort – thanks to carefully selected fiber blends, the product remains durable and retains its shape.
Luxurious product appearance – whether fine merino wool, cashmere blends or sustainable cotton yarns, the quality is noticeable.
Production in Portugal – quality, sustainability & short distances
Our production facility in Portugal combines traditional craftsmanship with the latest technology to produce knitwear and warp-knitted goods of the highest quality.
We focus on:
Sustainable & certified production processes – environmentally friendly & resource-saving.
Short delivery routes within Europe – fast, efficient and transparent supply chains.

With passion and experience for over 50 years in the textile industry
My name is Walter Blattner and I have dedicated my life to textile production for more than half a century. With over 50 years of experience in a constantly changing industry and a deep understanding of quality and craftsmanship, I have learned that one thing always remains constant: passion. It is my most important tool and the driving force behind every creative and productive work.
A Life for the Textile Industry
My journey began over five decades ago when I discovered a love for fabrics, textures and design. From my first steps in textile processing to setting up and running my own manufacturing business in Portugal, I have experienced every aspect of this industry first hand.
My work has taken me all over the world. I have had the opportunity to work with clients from a wide range of cultures and industries, from small fashion brands to international corporations. Each collaboration has broadened my horizons and shown me that true quality and dedication are universal values.
Despite my long career, my passion remains undiminished. The textile industry always offers new opportunities and I look forward to continuing to develop innovative solutions. I see great potential especially in areas such as workwear, sustainable fashion and bespoke designs. One thing remains certain for me: circumstances will always change, but the right attitude and passion are irreplaceable. With this conviction, I will continue to do my part to create high-quality textiles that meet the demands of our customers.
I invite you to immerse yourself with me in a world that combines tradition, innovation and passion. Let's work together on your projects and create something that will last - regardless of whether you are a young fashion label, a hotel company or a global corporation.
With kind regards,
Walter Blattner

With tradition into the future – My vision for our family business
As the son of the founder and with over 20 years of experience in operational business, I bring with me comprehensive know-how and the passion that has shaped our family business for decades. From a young age, I got to know all facets of the company alongside my father - from material selection to production.
This close connection has made me an expert who continues my father's values and traditions while developing them further with modern approaches.
I stand for consistent quality, innovative strength and a focus on the future. I rely on sustainable production methods and modern technologies to ensure the highest quality standards. At the same time, the core values of our company remain particularly important to me: transparency, reliability and close partnerships with our customers and suppliers.
As the new head of our family business, I am continuing my father's vision without forgetting the roots of our company. I combine tradition with modernity and have the clear goal of leading our company successfully into the future. With the same passion that characterized my father, I am now leading the fortunes of our company - and in doing so, I am creating a balance between the tried and tested and progress.
With kind regards
Silvio Blattner
