COTTONBEE - A PRINT ON DEMAND SUCCESS STORY DRIVING SUSTAINABLE TEXTILE PRODUCTION
“Despite starting off as a small start-up printing house that provided fabric printing exclusively to the Polish market, today our clients come from all across Europe. There are many market segments that we address, from business owners to individual customers, who all want to produce something unique” - COTTON BEE
WRITTEN FOR FESPA BY TEXTILE AMBASSADOR DEBBIE MCKEEGAN
As the Textile Industry shifts further towards a sustainable future the growth of print on demand is accelerating at an unprecedented pace. Digital technologies have democratized the print space – enabling an explosion of entrepreneurial growth within the marketplace.
Print-on-Demand offers a sustainable alternative to mass production. It also unlocks the value chain and, in a sector, where speed of delivery is now required alongside sustainable print production the market is set for exponential growth. Specialising in natural fabrics using pigment print technologies CottonBee now have over 20,000 customers worldwide.
In our most recent interview, Michał Laskowski, CEO at CottonBee spoke with FESPA Textile Ambassador Debbie McKeegan.
When was CottonBee founded? And what is your vision for the companies’ growth?
The idea to start a business that would allow small volume printing came to my wife’s mind at the beginning of 2013, and CottonBee became fully operational in November of that year, about 7 years ago. Since the very beginning, we have aimed to offer printing on fabrics and textiles, a service that back then was reserved for clothing manufacturers and big companies, and instead targeted entrepreneurs, handmade creators and hobbyists. Therefore, no minimum order printing was a revolutionary step. Now it seems that we’ve come full circle, as we are having to increase production capacity to cater to not only small-scale printing but more consistent bulk orders for bigger players on the market.
Where are your clients based and which sectors of the marketplace do you serve? Which sector is new growth coming from?
Despite starting off as a small start-up printing house that provided fabric printing exclusively to the Polish market, today our clients come from all across Europe. There are many market segments that we address, from business owners to individual customers, who all want to produce something unique. Our fabrics are used by baby clothing manufacturers, fashion brands, home décor brands, crafters, artists, even museums and movie theatres. Most recently, after the COVID outbreak, we’ve experienced a growth in demand for printed fabrics from international customers. Also, some companies have been looking for new fabric suppliers in their close proximity to minimise the risk of their shipments being delayed. This has made it even more evident that we are becoming a viable solution for them.
Do you print both reactive and pigment inks for natural fabrics? Which technologies do you use and how important has certification for inks become for your clients?
We are firm believers in pigment ink printing, as it allows us to achieve fast turnarounds for our clients. Our first Mimaki Tx400 printer provided great flexibility and print quality when we were just a small start-up business. When we later switched to Tx300P printers (a Tx300P-1800 direct-to-textile printer and a Tx300P-1800B with a sticky belt for printing on thin and stretchable fabrics) we achieved printing on stretchable fabrics, which represented a significant step ahead and a solid foundation to further progress our business. With minimum post-processing and a wide variety of fabric base pigment ink – we became able to offer an eco-friendly textile printing alternative to sustainable brands and anyone who cares for preserving the natural environment. Years down the line we still see how the use of pigment inks on natural fibres can make the difference and offer huge advantages, especially given the growing importance of sustainable solutions for the textile industry. Certifications for fabrics, pigments and even the entire manufacturing process are what clients want to see, so having OEKO-TEX and GOTS compliant inks are a key factor here. As we are now in the process of implementing industrial-grade solutions that we expect to lunch by the end of September to further increase our capacity, all of the above-mentioned are important features we want to offer to our customers.
Sourcing sustainable fabrics – Consumer awareness + behaviour – Are clients prepared to pay extra for environmentally sourced fabrics?
It is especially hard to gauge clients’ expectations regarding prices, particularly now, when COVID has changed so much in customers’ behaviours. But we believe that caring for the environment is still significant so paying a little extra for a quality fabric that is sustainable and natural is still a better solution than buying cheaper polyester and contributing to the microplastics pollution. In fact, we expect to launch a new collection of sustainable fabric bases with GOTS certifications - all in collaboration with a big European textile manufacturer - next autumn and we are certainly curious to see how it will all work out.
Tell us about the production workflow – How do you control colour management when working with virtual clients across multiple fabric bases?
As we work with a range of various grammages of both woven and jersey fabrics, we have our in-house colour profiling based on the Barbieri system. We have profiles made for every fabric base, so we can ensure great colour reproduction and consistent results in printing. A great deal of work is also done by our customer care - our team keeps the clients posted whenever images have to be converted to CMYK colour palette, which could affect the final print.
Meeting clients’ expectations – with a diverse client base how do you manage the production workflow so that orders regardless of scale are manufactured and shipped efficiently and fast?
There is a great quote by Warren Bennis: “The factory of the future will have only two employees, a man and a dog. The man will be there to feed the dog. The dog will be there to keep the man from touching the equipment.”. With over 20,000 clients we are able to manage it all with our custom-made e-commerce web-to-print platform fully integrated with our custom production managing tools. Our IT team are also a key part in helping us handle the workflow in an orderly manner.
Sustainability is a growing expectation – How as a business are you addressing sustainability?
Our efforts are focused on ensuring that every step of our production process becomes more and more eco-friendly. With printing on demand, we want to reduce the textile waste generated annually by the textile industry. We are printing on cotton-based and locally produced fabrics with OEKO-TEX certifications. We use pigments that are OEKO-TEX and GOTS compliant. We are shortening our supply chain to reduce CottonBee’s carbon footprint. We try to cut back on paper and plastic whenever we can. To simply put it, we do whatever we can to be as environmentally friendly as possible, despite being a part of one of the most polluting industries in the world.
Are you clients asking the right questions and have you seen a heightened demand for close proximity production?
We have been a supplier of printed fabrics to many local businesses for years now, but with COVID we’ve seen a significant increase in the number of clients looking for a textile print shop in their close proximity. Companies in the textile industry have been experiencing difficulties with shipments of their deliveries so shortening the supply chain was the obvious solution.
What’s next for the CottonBee team and where would you like the business to be in 2 years’ time?
Our next step will most definitely be increasing our production capacity. The last 6 months have shown us that there is still a growing demand for no-minimum-order-quantity fabric printing. With many companies in the textile industry shortening their supply chains, we also became a viable supplier for clothing manufacturers and larger businesses, since we can offer them a faster turnaround.
Also focusing even more on sustainability is something we always have in mind. Those are our priorities as of now. In addition, at some point in time, we would like to offer an even wider variety of services to our clients, but we will take that one step at a time.
Rebés's story isn't one of nostalgia - It's a working blueprint for how heritage manufacturers can stay indispensable in a market that rewards speed, certification, and specificity in equal measure. Four million metres of stock mean nothing without the digital printing capability to turn it into something distinctive.
A 150-year name means nothing without the R&D discipline to win a tender for antistatic, carbon-fibre-infused uniform fabric on the first attempt.

What if the next dress you wore never touched the factory floor?
This is no longer a fringe experiment. It is a maturing production model, backed by genuine material science, real circularity, and an AI-assisted workflow that is becoming more accessible by the month.
Her advice to designers and brands alike is refreshingly practical: start small, get hands-on with an accessible 3D printer, and build fluency before the technology becomes table stakes. The businesses that treat this moment with curiosity, rather than scepticism, will be the ones shaping fashion's next decade rather than reacting to it.
The 2027 FESPA Awards are now open for entry, and the message to businesses across textiles, apparel, interiors and beyond is simple: your work deserves recognition. Every gold winner featured here started in the same place every entrant does - with a project they believed was worth submitting.
As the only independent awards programme with 18 categories dedicated to print and signage, FESPA offers a genuinely global stage, with shortlisted entries displayed at FESPA Global Print Expo in Spring 2027.
Colour Is Too Important to Leave to Chance
Print will always be the part of the garment people see first.
But the sum of all parts — the fabric, the trims, the fasteners, the finish — is what determines whether a design actually delivers on its promise. Brands that continue to treat colour as a single creative decision, rather than a coordinated technical discipline spanning their entire supply chain, will keep paying for it in re-dips, delays, and disappointed design teams.
A Century of Textiles, and an Ever-changing World
Few companies can trace their roots back more than a century and still count themselves among their industry's innovators. Texia, headquartered in Monistrol de Montserrat, Spain, is one of them.
But the story of Texia is not simply one of longevity.
It is a story of continual reinvention. As the textile industry has grown more global and competitive, Texia has repeatedly reshaped its business, investing in technology, developing its own brands, and placing sustainability at the centre of its mission. In doing so, it offers a compelling example of how a heritage manufacturer can lead rather than follow through a period of profound industry change. Image Credit: Texia
What are we craving Ultimately?
The instinct to slow down while simultaneously optimising every measurable aspect of life isn't a passing curiosity. It's a structural response to a world that feels increasingly unstable, and it's reshaping what people expect from their homes, hotels, workplaces and healthcare environments alike.
For the design and manufacturing sectors, this means rethinking both product and process.
The Structual Shift is Real and its Already Here
Volumes are moving east, where digital production is accelerating rapidly. Consumer behaviour has shifted.
Demand is now driven by personalisation, shorter buying cycles, and an expectation of near-instant responsiveness. Regulatory pressure is intensifying, with supply chain transparency now a legal and commercial fact in many markets. And margins? They are under sustained, structural pressure.
This is not a temporary disruption. It is a fundamental reordering of how textile manufacturing must operate.
The Challenge: Standing Firm as the Industry Shifts
The wallpaper landscape has changed dramatically. Digital printing has lowered the barrier to entry, spawning countless direct-to-consumer brands and pushing much of the market towards faster, cheaper production.
At the same time, manufacturing in the UK has grown steadily harder - rising minimum wage, national insurance, energy and substrate costs all bear down on margins. Surface Print have embraced all of these challenges - and stand resolutely prepared for the future.
From Helsinki's printing mill to Paris's Le Marais, discover how Marimekko is scaling a design-led brand with purpose, craft, and bold innovation.
But what makes Marimekko's story compelling is not just its aesthetic legacy?
The word "toxic" carries weight. It conjures danger, harm, and things best avoided.
“Yet in the textile industry - Where between 3,000 and 10,000 chemicals move through the supply chain, a reflexive fear of the term is one of our biggest obstacles to progress.”
This article distils the key takeaways and what buyers, designers, and brands should be asking right now.
What Is the Digital Product Passport?
At its core, a Digital Product Passport is a digital record attached to a physical product - For a printed textile product, this means the DPP would capture data on the substrate, inks and dyes used, the printing process and technology, chemical compliance, environmental impact (including water and energy use), supply chain traceability, and end-of-life instructions.
The Market Gap that Changed Everything
Future Fashion was founded in 2019, timed deliberately to coincide with a pivotal moment in global textile technology: the commercial launch of the EFI Reggiani BOLT Single-Pass digital printing system.
The founders recognised that single-pass architecture had fundamentally changed what was industrially possible - and that Pakistan's domestic market had yet to catch up.
Print is no longer defined by the inefficiencies that once characterised it…as advances in production processes and technology have significantly improved its environmental performance.
Taran Rai, Corporate Sustainability Manager at Epson explains why?
The story of what happens when young designers access digital technology is still being written.
What once was a theoretical sustainability goal seems to have shifted into an active regulatory reality.
Is the Textile Market Finally Recovering?
After a difficult few years, there are genuine reasons for optimism. Duncan was candid about the challenges: "The market for textiles has been very difficult over the last three years. I'm not going to hide the truth there. But the tide is turning.“
A profound shift is currently reshaping the sector
Changing consumer expectations demand greater design diversity, faster turnaround times, and sustainable manufacturing practices.
To thrive, interior brands must adapt their supply chains, bringing production closer to the end consumer and moving away from bulk manufacturing.
Digital textile printing offers a definitive solution to these operational bottlenecks.
Digital transformation doesn't announce itself.
It accumulates - one innovation at a time - until an entire industry looks back and realises the ground has shifted beneath its feet. That's precisely where textiles stands today.
The conversations happening now about AI, automation, sustainability, and digital product passports are not theoretical. They are shaping decisions being made on factory floors and in boardrooms right now.
“By leveraging advanced digital textile printing, Marylene Madou has successfully merged traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Her approach offers a blueprint for how independent designers can scale their brands globally while maintaining a minimal environmental footprint.”
The textile industry is undergoing a vital transformation. As the insights from Techtextil and Texprocess reveal, the path forward relies on a combination of sustainable hardware, intelligent chemistry, and seamless digital workflows.
From Zimmer's industrial-scale energy reductions and Stratasys's on-demand 3D embellishments, to Kornit's single-step technical printing and the unified digital ecosystems of NedGraphics and Optitex, the tools for change are here. To stay competitive, brands and manufacturers must adopt these innovations, moving away from fragmented, wasteful processes towards a truly connected, circular economy.
Friedmans stands as a testament to the power of combining traditional textile knowledge with forward-thinking innovation.
“Operating from their UK headquarters, Friedmans now serves a diverse array of sectors, including swimwear, dance, entertainment, sportswear, interior decor, prosthetics, and even pet apparel. With a strategic supply chain that reliably serves clients worldwide”
The apparel decoration industry is decisively moving away from isolated, analogue production tools toward connected digital manufacturing environments.
"Kornit’s unwavering commitment to transformative technology continues to disrupt the status quo. For business leaders and innovators ready to capture the future of apparel manufacturing, the path forward is clear”
