Some of the services we can provide in the knitting lab:

- Product development for consumers who have ideals for new products, for more information, visit HTC Business and R & D Services
- Technician training at the lab and in-plant.
These are just a few examples of what we offer in the knitting lab. We work with ideas that come from many sources to see if it is technically possible to produce and then finds a resource to manufacture these ideas. It doesn't matter where the ideas come from.
