Innovation
Because we live our lives like you do. We value experiences above all else. Whether they are active or at ease ones, we know that technical textiles and apparels can elevate those experiences to the next level. That is why we has put innovation as a beating heart of our business for over 30 years. We are always looking ahead for what’s next. We use an innovation led approach to help our clients develop and deliver disruptive innovation to the market.
Our philosophy of sustainable innovation develops on 3 pillars; Product, Process and People.

A co-creation platform that is pushing boundaries in bringing garment innovation, function and form together in seamless working environment.
NIC Lab was created out of the desire to build apparel as functional and versatile as it is comfortable. We aim to bring consolidated services and innovation in apparel making to our customers.
We see a new era in textile and garment manufacturing where humans and machineries work side by side for quality, efficiency and productivity optimization. Through machinery and process improvement, we reduce work and dependence on human intervention while acquiring better consistent quality. These modernizations are achieved through internal developments by our technical teams and collaboration with machine suppliers.
The intention for digitalization is to further elevate the work flow and improve overall productivity in different aspects of the company. Through several innovation projects, we have acquired new ideas and technology to support this platform.
