For more than 110 years, Mayer & Cie. (MCT) has manufactured circular knitting machines that are used to make T-shirts, night wear, underwear and mattress covers, among others. The capital goods manufacturer from the Swabian Jura has received many patents and revolutionised the automated circular knitting process, and is now the global market leader in the field. Well over 95 per cent of its machines are exported: Mainly to Asia, starting with Turkey via India and Bangladesh to the very eastern countries like Indonesia and China; but also to other textile countries in America, Europe and Africa. The latest innovation from Mayer is the spinitsystems, a technology that combines spinning and knitting in the same machine for the first time.
