"The benefits are colossal. I can sit beside the machine and do color development work in minutes. There is no faster way to do color development work"

Carpet ManufacturerNew Zealand
"The Mtuft makes any gauge possible. A single package of yarn can produce a sample using a small amount of primary backing, therefore reducing wastage"
Yarn ManufacturerIndia
"The turn-around time is so much quicker than the alternative of setting up a full production creel. We now have the time to sit back and actually design and innovate as opposed to reacting"
Product Development ManagerAustralia
“A production machine will be down for several hours to do even a simple sample, this could be $5000 of lost production value on a modern high-speed machine. So, a sample from the Mtuft could save $5000!”
