The benefits for the German fashion brand Walbusch are clear to see: Critical design decisions are now being empowered via virtual product simulation software from Koppermann, thus accelerating the product development cycle.

Faster collection cycles and growing international procurement and manufacturing processes are introducing new challenges for product development teams.

Technically accurate and visually appealing samples are growing in importance, as collection decisions, whether a style makes the collection or not, are being made with fabric swatches and CAD drawings.

“Koppermann, due to their vast industry experience, were way ahead of the competition and impressed us right from day one. Even during the proof of concept phase we were impressed, both by the end-results and the ease with which we got there,” added Hartwig Bohnenkamp, Head of Quality Planning at Walbusch.
