Innovation That Matters
At Chicopee® we spend hundreds of hours every week in contact with our end customers.
This unique interface allows us to provide feedback for real issues and problems experienced by our users directly to our marketing and product development teams. This direct link is then also utilized throughout the product development process, checking and rechecking that the solution developed fits its purpose and embodies the Chicopee brand. With a dedicated pilot line we are able to re-create development fabrics on a much smaller scale, which helps to bring us to market faster providing more efficient use of materials.
