Machines like the Ecologic Plus II, Eco-Aero, Aquarius, and Ecosynthetic are designed to optimize dyeing processes while minimizing environmental impact. These systems reflect the company’s dedication to eco-conscious engineering—an increasingly vital priority in today’s textile industry.

As the textile industry faces new challenges—from sustainability to digital transformation—Brazzoli S.r.l. is poised to lead the charge. With its blend of heritage and forward-thinking design, the company continues to redefine what’s possible in textile machinery.
Brazzoli’s Product Portfolio: Precision Meets Sustainability

These machines are not just tools—they’re technological benchmarks. Brazzoli’s commitment to innovation is evident in its integration of automation, digital controls, and eco-friendly processes across its product line.
Twin Technology
One of Brazzoli’s most notable innovations is its Twin Technology, which allows multiple ropes to be dyed simultaneously in the same chamber. This boosts productivity without compromising fabric quality, even for light and body-size materials. The system prevents entanglements and tension, ensuring smooth operation and consistent results.
Innovative Plaiter
J-Box is the part in the machine that fabric stays long time. Fabric stacking makes big difference final quality of fabric. Stacking should be done without tension, relax and avoiding any jam in J-Box. Instead of spinning plaiter system, Brazzoli Eco-Logic Plus-II uses free flow to stack fabric. Every corner of J-Box is filled with fabric without tension. Fabric flows in J-Box smoothly. Result is better shrinkage value and eliminated yarn deformation. Even sensitive viscose fabrics are suitable for Brazzoli Eco-Logic Plus-II.
Effective Rinsing
Good rinsing is important, but water consumption is important too. In order to get good washing result, fabric and water should be contacted effective way. However, to keep fabric in machine during long washing cycles is costly. Because reduces productivity and increases water consumption. Brazzoli Eco-Logic Plus-II has a clever solution. When rinsing cycle arrives, bath is drained down tomin level and fresh water is fed to nozzles directly. Fabric gets in touch with fresh water instead of contaminated water from dyeing bath. Rinsing time and total amount of water are reduced but, on the side, fabric is washed in effective way.
Unique Collector
Water pressure and flow should be equal between chambers. Brazzoli Eco-Logic Plus-II has an octopus style collector instead of a single pipe and many branches, which is used by conventional dyeing machines. Each nozzle on chambers can be fed perfectly equal water flow to eliminate any colour difference between chambers. Conventional dyeing machines has to spend longer dyeing time to reduce difference and increase equalisation, however for Brazzoli Eco-Logic Plus-II, it is not a problem. Always delivers perfect result without any precaution.
Designed for the Future
Brazzoli’s machines are developed in close collaboration with textile producers, ensuring that each product meets real-world demands. Whether it’s reducing cycle times, optimizing chemical usage, or enhancing fabric feel, every detail is engineered for excellence.

Modella eyeing another acquisition, this time it’s the Wynsors footwear chain
Published
December 1, 2025
Modella Capital is fast becoming one of the most acquisitive businesses on the UK high street and the latest retailer in its sights is footwear chain Wynsors World of Shoes.
That’s according to Sky News, which said the investment firm is targeting a takeover of the privately owned footwear retailer and is currently in “advanced talks”.
Wynsors trades from around 50 standalone shops across the north of England and Modella is now “the likeliest buyer” of the business, with expectations of a deal before the end of the year.
Modella was recently in the news as the buyer of Claire’s UK business. It also recently bought the non-travel locations of WH Smith (now renamed TG Jones) and owns Hobbycraft and The Original Factory Shop too. It had earlier hoped to add Poundland to its portfolio but missed out on that one.
Wynsors has been looking to sell for around two months and accountancy firm RSM had been hired explore interest from prospective bidders, Sky News said.
The chain trades from around 50 standalone stores and 40 concessions. It sells brands including Adidas, Skechers, Hush Puppies, Clarks, Nike, kickers and more. And although its sells footwear for women, men and children, it focuses particularly on school shoes.

Results are in: US Black Friday store visits down, e-visits up, apparel shines
Published
December 1, 2025
US Black Friday retail sales rose 4.1%, Mastercard SpendingPulse has revealed. But while online surged, in-store visitor traffic was down a separate report from RetailNext showed. That said, both reports showed a better result for apparel than for other sectors.
First, the Mastercard numbers. They exclude autos and are based on the payment cards giant measuring in-store and online retail sales across all payment types.
The company said this year’s event “tells a story of comfort, connection, and savvy shopping” as consumers prepared for meaningful moments with family and friends.
Spending growth on apparel was particularly strong both online and in-store, “suggesting shoppers refreshed wardrobes while leaning into value-driven choices and convenience”.
In fact, apparel climbed 5.7% (online 6.1%, in-store 5.4%), as “chilly temperatures and seasonal deals encouraged spending on new fashions”. Jewelry also rose 2.75% (online 4.2%), “as consumers opted for gifts that shine”.
Overall, e-commerce retail sales excluding autos jumped 10.4%, “as shoppers increasingly value speed and convenience”. In-store sales grew more modestly (1.7%) but “remain essential to consumers for tactile experiences”.
Mastercard also said the surge in online shopping “showcases how technology is transforming the way consumers pay. Shoppers are enjoying seamless checkout experiences across devices, from smartphones to connected home assistants, making holiday shopping faster, safer, and more intuitive than ever before”.
Which leads us on the that drop for in-store shopping traffic. RetailNext said initial data reveals an average of a 5.3% year-over-year decrease for foot traffic across Black Friday and Saturday.
Visitor numbers dropped 3.6% on Friday itself and a massive 8.6% on Saturday. By store type, apparel stores saw traffic down 2.3% across the two days with just a 0.7% drop on Friday and 5.3% on Saturday.
For footwear, the weekend, Friday and Saturday falls were 6%, 6% and 5.9%, respectively. For healthy & beauty they were drops of 4.7%, 2.1% and 9.6%, and for jewelry they were 3.6%, 2% and 6.6%.
“Black Friday 2025 didn’t kill the holiday; it changed how shoppers approached it,” said Joe Shasteen, Global Head of Advanced Analytics at RetailNext. “Foot traffic was down on Friday and on Saturday, but that wasn’t disinterest, it was intention. Shoppers showed they’re done with the impulse-driven, one-day frenzy. Prices, tariffs, and tighter budgets pushed people to shop with discipline, not adrenaline, and they responded by turning Black Friday into a value calculation”.
RetailNext said one of the clearest signals is the 3.6% drop on Black Friday, which was meaningfully better than the 6.2% decline seen from Sunday through Wednesday (23 November to 26 November). It shows that even in a cautious year, “shoppers are still willing to attend major promotional events; they’re simply being more selective about when those events are worth the trip”.
“Despite the declines, Black Friday again delivered the highest in-store traffic of any day this year, reaffirming its role as the anchor of the holiday shopping season, but the weekend’s performance was shaped more by real-world factors than waning interest,” added Shasteen. “Consumers are still willing to shop, they’re just demanding proof it’s worth leaving the house. Retailers who treated November as a month-long build, rather than a single-day spectacle, saw the strongest in-store performance.”
