We don't sell fabric. We make the knit a collection is remembered for.
Forty years inside a single discipline. Single jersey, rib, interlock and piqué, knit in Gominhães on machines our team knows by name. We work for brands that measure quality in grams, drape and the way a seam falls after fifty washes.
Every knit comes in 100% organic cotton, GOTS certified, in any Pantone. Weights are typical ranges; we confirm yours on the sample. Choose a knit and the quote tool below opens with it selected.
The Brain-room is our in-house trend and development studio. Each season we read the yarn fairs, the colour forecasts and what is actually selling, and turn it into knits, weights and finishes ready to sample. Bring us a brief, a reference or just a feeling. We help turn it into a fabric that works on the body and on the price.
Certification runs the whole chain, from the raw cotton to the finished piece you put your label on. The traceability your sustainability claims need, without a single asterisk. For premium brands, that paper trail is part of the product.
GOTS licence no. [to confirm]We knit in the heart of Portugal's Vale do Ave, the country's textile region. A team of 31 people runs every circular knitting machine in house, from the yarn cone to the finished garment. That is how we hold quality and answer for it: responsible, traceable, GOTS-certified production, with the flexibility to take a small capsule or a full-season order.
You send the spec, the reference, the target price. We read it like a maker, not a salesperson.
We knit a real sample in your yarn. You judge the hand, the drape and the colour before anything scales.
Once approved, we run the order in Gominhães. Small series or full production, the same care either way.
On time, certified, finished and ready for your label. Then we do it again next season.
