Client story
Trimtex: sportswear design in 3D before production
Background
Trimtex is a Norwegian sportswear manufacturer with production in Estonia. The company employs nearly 100 people. Trimtex makes custom sportswear for cycling clubs and teams.
Challenge
From a static 2D sketch, it was hard for customers to picture how the design would look on the actual garment. The back-and-forth between the customer, sales and designers dragged projects out.
Solution
We built a 3D platform where the customer sees the design from every angle, logos are added in real time, and options such as zip colours and materials can be chosen.
- Three.js
- Angular
- Node.js
- TypeScript
- PostgreSQL
- AWS
Approach
Designers place logos directly on accurate 3D models, and production files are generated automatically from the approved design. The platform connects the design tools with the production software.
Result
Design approval went from weeks to days. The platform is part of Trimtex’s everyday work.
Lesson learned
The most important thing was understanding the business rules and design constraints before building.
