The French firm Stand 21 has specialized in designing and making racewear for rally and Formula 1 drivers since 1970.

Ten times faster – a way of life Being faster than the competition is something Stand 21's customers understand better than anyone.

The record-breaking speed at which Stand 21 makes a race suit depends in part on the powerful graphics software used by the designers.

Today, the company can design a new outfit from ®scratch in just 20 minutes—thanks to CorelDRAWGraphics Suite.

At the company's headquarters in the heart of France's Burgundy region, as well as in its European subsidiaries and all global franchising companies, CorelDRAW is the undisputed standard.

“We really like Corel PowerTRACE too, especially for designing logos, dragons and other pictures,” adds Roya Behiar. “Sometimes customers turn up with a photo of a car or a paper printout of a logo. That wouldn't be a lot of use to us if we didn't ®have the Corel PowerTRACE™ bitmap-to-vector tracer. Now we can just take their bit of paper with a smile and turn a blurry bitmap into a vector graphic. Then we can really get to work on it.”

This way of working has huge benefits for customers. During a design meeting between the Stand 21 graphic artist and the driver or sponsor, the suit can be altered at the same time.

The logo can be put in a different position, seams altered, sleeves lengthened, in real time, right in front of the computer.

“It used to take us six hours to design an average suit, but now we can do it in 20 minutes flat,” says Roya Behiar, who's also pretty enthusiastic about CorelDRAW's ease of use and intuitive interface. “When I first got the job at Stand 21, I'd never worked with Corel before. But that didn't stop my boss hiring me. He said: 'You'll get the hang of it in no time.' The great thing is that he was right!”
