How we develop cords.

The parameters result from the application, method of installation, contact with the user and expected durability.

Cord, links and shoelace we produce for clothing, footwear, advertising, outdoor equipment and technical applications. The method of plaiting, crocheting, weaving or knitting affects the cross-section, appearance, flexibility and durability of the product. Therefore, the right choice starts with its function.

We set a flat or round shape, diameter or width, material, colour, texture and way of ending. With shoelace and tips we can prepare an aglet tip and lengths ready for installation. With technical links we analyze the load, atmospheric conditions and method of fixing.

For products in contact with the skin or requiring specific documentation, we confirm the scope of materials and certification for a specific order. The test allows to evaluate grip, color, work cord and compliance with other elements of the product.

Cords: variants and manufacturing options.

Photos show examples of realizations. Material, design, color and finish are selected for the application of the product.

Frequently asked questions: cord

What diameters are possible?

We select the diameter to be used. The core, braid and expected strength are also important for technical projects.

Do you make ends?

Yes. We can offer aglets and packaging tailored to the further production process.

Can a string have a logo or pattern?

In selected flat designs it is possible to make a repetitive pattern. We evaluate the readability based on width and design.

How is the Kedra different from the normal cord?

Kedra is a structural or finishing piece of seam. It can have a core and fin designed for stitching, therefore it is designed under a specific method of assembly.
