VT Garment and Yamato Sewing Machine Japan: A Sustainable Partnership

Crafting Stronger Seams with UTQ Technology
At VT Garment, our commitment to sustainability runs deep. We believe that every stitch matters—not just for the durability of our products but also for the planet. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our collaboration with Yamato Sewing Machine Japan, a pioneer in innovative sewing solutions.
The UTQ Revolution
Yamato’s groundbreaking solution, UTQ, is a game-changer for the textile industry. Here’s how it works:
Eliminating the Need for Additional Stitching: Traditional coverstitch seams often require extra tacking at the end to prevent unraveling. UTQ eliminates this need entirely. By cleverly securing the threads during the sewing process, it ensures that seams remain intact without any additional stitching.
Double Safeguard Mechanisms: UTQ incorporates not one but two safeguarding mechanisms. First, it locks the threads securely at the end of each seam. Second, it prevents any accidental unraveling due to tension changes or stress on the fabric. The result? Stronger, more reliable seams.
Beautiful Aesthetics: Beyond functionality, UTQ enhances the aesthetics of our garments. With no visible tacking threads, our outerwear, sportswear, and protective equipment look cleaner and more professional.
Empowering VTG’s Team
To fully harness the benefits of UTQ, our VT Garment team is diving into comprehensive training provided by Yamato technicians from Japan. Here’s how we’re ensuring that everyone—from maintenance to production to quality control—understands the concept and theory behind this cutting-edge technology:
Theory Sessions: Our team members are immersing themselves in the theory behind UTQ. Understanding the mechanics allows them to troubleshoot effectively and optimise its use.
Hands-On Practice: Nothing beats hands-on experience. Our technicians are working directly with Yamato experts to master the intricacies of UTQ. From adjusting settings to fine-tuning the process, they’re becoming UTQ wizards.
Quality Assurance: Our quality control team is rigorously testing UTQ seams. We’re measuring strength, durability, and aesthetics to ensure that every garment leaving our facility meets our high standards.
A Sustainable Future
VT Garment’s collaboration with Yamato isn’t just about better seams; it’s about a sustainable future. By reducing the need for additional stitching, we’re conserving resources—both in terms of thread usage and operational time. And as we gradually introduce UTQ to our customers, we’re excited to share this innovation with the world.
