Circular & Flat Knitting
Function engineered into the knit structure with precise compression and elasticity
Knitting enables functional zones to be built directly into the stitch pattern—combining comfort, fit, and performance. With circular and flat knitting, we can integrate conductive yarns, electrode areas, and support structures exactly where needed, while controlling stretch, compression, and skin contact. Use cases: performance apparel, sensor garments, compression sleeves, and integrated monitoring or stimulation textiles.
faq
What are the benefits of knitted integration compared to post-processing/confection?
With circular and flat knitting, conductive zones, compression areas, and electrodes can be integrated directly into the textile structure. This results in especially comfortable, elastic, and durable solutions with even pressure distribution and stable skin contact.
How flexible are changes in knitted e-textiles?
Changes to layout or functionality require updates to the knitting program, but they can be planned well early on. ETS works with you to define scalable knit designs that allow later optimisation without compromising production readiness.
