Active seam replaces flat lock

Active seam is Merrow’s newest technology. It seeks to revolutionize medical and compression garment manufacturing by replacing the traditional flat lock seam with a flatter, stronger stitch.

Additionally, active seam is the world’s first branded stitch, bringing a distinctive value to retail products. With a flat profile and twice the stretch built into the seam, active seam garments are extraordinarily comfortable and do not restrict movement.

Active seam replaces flat lock with a stronger, more elastic, and infinitely more attractive seam construction that is ideal for specialized applications like medical compression garments.

Active seam is almost undetectable when applied next to skin. With more stretch built into the seam, the garment can be designed to fit the human body better without restricting athletic movement.

In fact active seam is uniquely suited for any application that entails a garment’s seams be pressed against the skin because of its extremely flat profile, flexibility, and unparalleled comfort. This is great news for anyone who utilizes compression wear, particularly compression garments or athletic apparel, as active seam substantially increases pliability and improves overall fit.

Compared to a six-thread flat lock seam with identical thread, fabric, Merrow active seam two and three thread seams prove to be 30 per cent stronger and have the ability to stretch 100 per cent further.

Merrow, based in the US, manufactures overlock sewing machines for fashion, technical and end-to-end seaming.
