As part of the trip we
visited Euro jersey, a fabric manufacturer who produce microfiber sensitive
material. They make fabric for Next, John Lewis, Dolce and Gabbana and Prada.
It was really interesting
to be shown the complete process the company goes through, from the design,
manufacturing, and product testing and marketing.
The Manufaction it
self was really interesting, the whole process was explained to us by the
marketing director. My favourite part of the production process was the ‘colour
kitchen’ where the different colours are mixed. It is all done by computers the
dye is never touched by human hands.
The factory was very
eco friendly. Waste material was recycled and given to charity; heat and water
are also recycled. The whole company is aware of how they are performing in
terms of eco responsibility with interactive billboards providing statistic on
water etc.
How the product is
created forms a huge part of the marketing plan for the company. This was great
to see how even in marketing you need to know the whole processes the products
goes through.
