Gerber highlights digital solutions at PI Apparel

Every year, the fashion and apparel industry spends billions of dollars on sampling. The shipping of these samples back and forth around the globe is not friendly to the planet either. Gerber's team will be demonstrating how its AccuMark 2D and 3D software simulates virtual garment samples so realistic that there's no need for designers to spend the time and money cutting and sewing 'real' ones. It is highlighting how combining AccuMark with the company's YuniquePLM In The Cloud platform enables fashion companies to collaborate and save 30-50 per cent on their sample costs.

Loyal AccuMark and YuniquePLM customer, Helly Hansen is presenting the key business challenges of upgrading from webPDM to YuniquePLM In The Cloud. For more than 10 years, Helly Hansen has used webPDM as the central database for all product information and AccuMark for its technical design and pattern making. Key factors in upgrading to YuniquePLM In The Cloud were to solve communication and inefficiencies across their value chain.

"We are excited to have our long time customer, Helly Hansen, discuss their experience with upgrading to our industry-leading YuniquePLM In The Cloud. Utilising their understanding of webPDM and transferring it to capitalise on the capabilities of YuniquePLM in the future, will allow them to leverage cost savings and realise efficiencies that will increase their speed to market and ultimately help drive profitability," said Bill Brewster, vice president and general manager, enterprise software solutions.
