WEAVING

Satab’s mastery of all weaving techniques (plain, twill, satin) combined with a complete range of machines enables us to offer our customers the most comprehensive range of narrow-woven textiles possible.

More than 100 traditional “shuttle” looms, the oldest dating back to 1874, create ribbons with singular effects. Ideal for creating creative ribbons, with weft and warp effects, and top-of-the-range, it’s these machines that earned us the prestigious EPV state label.

Our fleet of 300 modern needle looms enables us to meet all our customers’ needs and requirements, offering a wide range of technical possibilities and high production rates.

BRAIDING

Flat or tubular, made of obliquely interlaced wires, braid is used in a wide range of industries under different names: cords (technical), cords (ready-to-wear), laces (ready-to-wear), halyards (industry, nautical), ropes (industry).

KNITTING

Knitwear is produced from one or more continuous threads wound in loops around themselves. The yarn loops give the product volume and elasticity.

This machine fleet enables us to produce elastics for sanitary masks as well as cords for ready-to-wear garments

FINISHING

From the transformation of a raw fabric into a desirable product, to adding colours, patterns or improving its functional properties through the use of a primer, the range of possibilities for finishing is vast.

To meet all its customers’ aesthetic and technical requirements, Satab masters several finishing techniques: dyeing, special priming, embossed and non-embossed printing, embossed and non-embossed gilding, cutting (coupons).

PACKAGING AND LOGISTICS

Packaging, stock management, delivery… these are all strategic issues for companies today. Thanks to its expertise and dedicated logistics platform, Satab is able to support its customers and adapt its offer to their needs.

More than 400 parcels delivered every day to over 72 countries
