Our skills

After 18 years in shipment field, I took time to think about a new professional project.

I’m now in charge of the cutting department of Pact Europact. My job in the workshop is to lead laser and water jet machines. I do materials placement, start computer programs, earlier developed by the research department, check the cutting quality and manage the packing. I’ve to constantly take care of the quality, and try to optimize the raw material.

Leather, textile, fur, PVC, the cutting supports are really varied. With laser machine, I also make engraving on soft materials for a decorative effect. I love the diversity offered by my job, we are producing unique parts as much as mass production.

Being a cutter require to be comfortable with IT but also with manual work because we are manipulating materials with precision. We sometimes need to be proactive and find some cutting improvement tracks.

I’m working on research and fashion department as embroidery developer and fashion manager. My work is to develop embroidery programs. From all type of file, I determine the stitching and points density. When we finished the program, we then work closely with embroidery team to realize tests and make some adjustments until we get a perfect result, and start production.

The customer can have a very precise idea of the wished result, or request our expertise and sensitivity to interpret patterns. We imagine embroidery points to bring goods to life !

As fashion manager, I’m also in charge of the creation of collections which will, every year, highlight our innovations awaken imagination within our customers.

In this job, we firstly have to be creative, but also like team working and understand well material, its particularities and obligations. Patience and tenacity are required in order to realize embroidery programs sometimes really complex.

I knew very early I wanted to become silkscreen printer, ink is a raw material I always appreciated. Both technician and artist, I’m printing drawings or patterns on soft material.

Once getting the technical folder, I realize printing processes : inks preparation, calculation of the necessary quantity for printing and, finally, the printing, on my mechanic table. For each step, quality control is essential.

I lead a single color machine, thus each support goes on the machine as many times as the number of colors, with drying times to respect between each step. I’m working on an air-conditioned place guaranteeing a perfect temperature for a perfect dry.

Precision, meticulousness and taste for autonomy work are essential to practice this job. We also need to love to take up challenges to answer the luxury field requirements.

I had the opportunity to join Pact Europact in 1991 after a cabinet-making degree. I started in embroidery department, then in silkscreen printing department before developing an expertise in the activity of material embossing. My job is about fashioning goods by embossing or debossing, which means create deep or relief effects.

I’m currently department manager and my team is working on a multipurpose way on production, quality control and packing. As for me, I realize the biggest parts of samples for our luxury customers. I particularly like realizing these developments and find innovations.

To my mind, becoming embossing technician require a lot of meticulousness, rigor and calm. That’s a full delicacy work to create exceptional goods.
