Recently, Kappa launched a new "Easy Outdoor" series, primarily aimed at light outdoor activities such as river tracing and hiking, as the name suggests. Prior to the release of this series, Kappa had already officially signed an agreement with GBOS. Kappa has always adhered to high standards, and following the signing, they have relied on the robust support of the GBOS Digital Cutting Center, laying a solid foundation for earning customer trust and opening up the market. This successful collaboration not only demonstrates Kappa's product line upgrade but also highlights GBOS's overseas delivery capabilities.

About KAPPA

Born in 1916, the KAPPA brand began to gain prominence in Europe in the 1960s and 1970s, gradually developing into one of the most renowned sports and leisure apparel brands in Europe. Today, Kappa continues to uphold its sports heritage while positioning itself as a trendy sports lifestyle brand.

Customer Voices

  As a sports lifestyle brand, how does Kappa establish itself and achieve rapid, sustainable growth in the highly competitive athletic footwear market? How can it meet diverse market demands? Let's explore the secrets together.

• Creating a Digital Cutting Center: Key to Success

  To be a leader in lean manufacturing 4.0 in the footwear industry, it is essential to meet stringent standards in cutting accuracy, response speed, cost control, equipment stability, and after-sales service.

  After extensive evaluation, Kappa found that GBOS Digital Cutting Center's one-stop digital solution, capacity assurance, and localized services were a perfect match for the brand. Kappa ultimately decided to implement GBOS's one-stop intelligent cutting solution to meet its production and operational needs while reducing costs and improving efficiency. To date, Kappa has introduced multiple GBOS VC9 series oscillating knife machines and GH series laser cutting equipment.

And Gain Numerous Advantages:

• One-stop Intelligent Cutting and Innovative Process Solutions

Including laser cutting machines, laser marking machines, oscillating knife cutting machines, line printing machines,  leather nesting and cutting, and other automated products.

• Support from R&D Team: optimization and improvement support.
• Quick and Efficient Adaptation to Market Trends，swiftly accommodate changes in production order structure.
• Mold-free Digital Production—Capacity Efficiency

  One oscillating knife cutting machine equals approximately 2-3 traditional punch presses; compared to flatbed cutting machines, oscillating knife cutting machines save about 70% in labor costs, roughly saving 2-3 personnel.
  One oscillating knife cutting machine requires no molds.

• Support for Carbon Emission Standards and Carbon Neutrality Policies

  No smoke emissions during production; nesting software reduces material waste, helping the brand reduce its "carbon footprint."
  High-efficiency intelligent equipment reduces company electricity consumption (one set of intelligent equipment can replace several traditional devices), contributing to the implementation of "ESG" principles.
