A New Collaboration Between Inèdit And Transfertex Will Allow Paying Only For The Meters Printed When Purchasing Textile Designs
Inèdit Software and Transfertex close a strategic partnership that will allow users to buy designs online through the myTFX platform and pay only for the meters they print using neoStampa Rip Software in Digital Printers.
Transfertex is a creative design company that integrates both design and textile production.
At the myTFX platform, an ultimate textile designs online bank, the user will be able to select from thousands of high-quality and copyright-protected textile designs and colorways for their own production. When users decide to buy a design, they can choose the meters they want to print.
Inèdit Software develops specialized solutions for color management in digital textile printing.
With its Rip Software neoStampa, they not only guarantee the best color results but will also be in charge of reading the files downloaded from myTFX and calculating the meters to be printed according to what the customer has ordered on the platform.
The solution proposed by both companies is a breakthrough in the process of acquiring designs. For the first time, it is possible to purchase a design and print as many meters as you want, as many times as you want, and pay only for what you have produced.
"We have a long-standing and trusting partnership with Inedit. The first projects to show designs digitally were already developed and implemented 25 years ago," says André Peters, Managing Director of Transfertex. "This project is another milestone in the digitization of textile printing".
This collaboration comes at a crucial moment in the industry since the increase of meters printed digitally is closely related to customization cost reduction and production proximity.
Being able to print only what is going to be used is part of the ability of both companies to adapt to the environment, making it easier for customers to control and customize their production.
“Together with Transfertex we have designed a revolutionary solution for the digital textile printing industry,” says Dani Martinez, Product Owner at Inèdit Software. “Inèdit has developed a unique encryption system that allows neoStampa RIP to read the files created in the myTFX platform and print only the meters purchased by the customer. For the first time, printers will be able to choose among a huge collection of trendy designs and pay only for the meters they really need to print. On the other hand, designers will receive the real value of their work. We are pleased to be part, once again, of the industry’s transformation and we are very grateful to Transfertex for choosing us.”
FESPA Global Expo, which takes place in Berlin from May 30 to June 4, will be the venue selected for both companies to present the new solution.
With a shared booth, they will reproduce a microfactory where a live production flow will be shown, from design selection on the myTFX platform to the printing process.
This live demo will be located in Hall 6.2B - Booth 15.

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.
