UNDERSTANDING THE PRODUCTION PROCESS
UNDERSTANDING THE DESIGN PROCESS
There are 6 types of graphic works divided into 3 categories depending on their stages in the business process. The 3 categories include:
(1) Pre-Sales Graphics, which are done prior to actual selling and manufacturing as they form part of the standard business database. These include Design Catalogue and Patterns/Sizing.
(2) During-Sales Graphics, which are needed when there are actual sales already as these graphics are dependent on the customer who placed the order. These include Design Request, 3DViewer, and Digital Proof.
(3) Manufacturing Graphics, or Nesting Graphics, which is needed for manufacturing purposes.
PRE-SALES GRAPHICS
1) Design Catalogue. The design catalogue maybe in the form of 2-dimensional static drawing or dynamic 3D inside the 3DWEAR software.
2) Pattern & Sizing. The pattern and sizing graphics include the vector drawing of all templates ranging from the smallest to the biggest size being offered by the company. Most dealers or manufacturers have different sizing standards and these are usually customized according to the standard offerings in their market or country of origin.
DURING SALES GRAPHICS
3) Design Request. The design request normally comes from the customer's idea from all sorts of inspiration. It may be coming as standard offering in the design catalogue or totally different coming from patches of inspiration from the internet.
4) 3DViewer. This is a unique free offering of Crafteli Company as other manufacturers don't offer it yet. The rotating 3D view aims to inspire the customer to see his chosen design in 360 view. Dealers and buyers can also do this on their own using the 3DWEAR Viewer.
5) Digital Proof. The digital proof is the summary of all details as agreed between the customer and the seller. It serves as the comprehensive plan. It shows the CMYK colors or the Color Chart reference, the fonts and sizes, the logos and sizes, the stitches and thread colors, etc. Dealers usually do this and submits them to the manufacturer.
MANUFACTURING GRAPHICS
6) Nesting Graphics. The nesting graphics is the final vector layout of all sizes and designs drawn out of the approved digital proof. The vector files are submitted to the printing department as input to printing and laser cutting. This is offered free to all dealers and customers of Crafteli Company.

OUR MANUFACTURING PRINCIPLES AND PROCESSES
Crafteli is following two principles in manufacturing:
Why Italian-inspired?
Manufacturing is an art in Italy. That is why all employees, including the owner, view themselves as artists. This is the artisan concept that guides Crafteli in its day-to-day operation as a manufacturer of custom sublimated sportswear. As artisans, Crafteli employees try to visualize perfection even before the first stitch is sewn.
Why ethical manufacturing?
The sad thing about the garment industry is that there are still companies who operate as sweatshops. This practice may be cost-effective but the downside is that it does not provide good working conditions and may result to poor quality, as the main focus is on quantity. Sweatshops may be considered unethical manufacturers.
Crafteli Company strongly supports the Fashion Revolution and upholds ethical manufacturing. Crafteli put up his own factory and now employs regular workers who are paid with basic salaries, overtime fees, holiday pays, and enjoy medical benefits. Crafteli sewers also work inside air-conditioned rooms for comfort.
Now, Crafteli has proven that following a more ethical manufacturing set-up makes good business sense as it resulted to better quality and higher productivity.
