Gauge and Needle Density
Our machines run at 28 gauge, producing a fine, smooth fabric with a close knit structure suited to premium innerwear, activewear and shapewear.
Our 114 Santoni seamless circular knitting machines are the heart of SVL’s operation. They determine the quality of the garment, the precision of the fit and the efficiency of the production process.
The entire garment is knitted in a single, continuous operation on a circular machine. The programme controls structure, shaping, compression zones and pattern across the full garment.
The garment comes off the machine as a complete tube, needing only trimming and finishing. Uniform construction, consistent shaping and no seam-related weak points.
This technology demands major capital investment and deep technical expertise. It is out of reach for most small and mid-scale manufacturers. SVL built its entire operation around it.
