Sylab is an experimental lab where the vision is to create potential for sewing production in Denmark through process optimization and automation.
Content and phases
Denmark has a strong brand in the fashion and textile sector and has at the same time fought for a green profile. Producing sustainable textiles at a geographical and cultural distance is a major challenge in terms of environmental and ethical requirements.
Sylab helps small brands and upcomers have the opportunity to sew small collections and prototypes and get guidance in optimizing sewing technical processes and designs. Sylab allows large companies to try out new slightly fun design ideas and get repairs made of productions from abroad. In addition, design and modulation of customer styles are offered.
There is room for 10 entrepreneurs at Sylab and two different leasing options, one where you have office space and access to the sewing room (750 kr. ex. VAT) and the other where you have office, the sewing room, showroom for sharing and more storage (1250 DKK ex. VAT).

About orders in sylab
As a project under Lifestyle & Design Cluster, Sylab is not an ordinary sewing room. We work in several directions and are experimenting with a sewing robot among other things. As we are an experimental development project, we are not able to provide general information on our capabilities but are constantly assessing each task.
However, if our entrepreneurs believe they have available capacity, we can assist with development tasks including construction. Development costs are agreed directly with the entrepreneurs. We handle orders in both knitwear and clothing at our sewing room, but unfortunately, we cannot help with the purchase of materials.
If you would like more information or to place an order, send an email to sylab@ldcluster.com
