What Is Marker Making?
In the apparel industry, a marker maker is a specific stencil that shows how a particular garment piece should be cut from a piece of fabric. The person who arranges the marker is the marker planner – though we call them Marker Maker Gurus.
It's the planner's job to arrange the patterns efficiently. The mantra is – waste as little of the fabric as possible. The percentage of the fabric cut into pieces is called the “fabric yield.” When the yield is high, the arrangement of patterns is called a “tight marker.” And the percentage of the fabric actually used for the garment being produced is called the “fabric utilization.”
Our computer-aided design (CAD) system under the command of our marker making gurus ensures high yields and tight markers on all your projects.

Our Marker Making Methods
The two most commonly recognized methods of marker making are manual and computerized. In most cases, higher yield and efficiency can be expected using the automated method of marker making.
Our marker makers are so experienced that they can perform better than a computer under some circumstances, depending on the design and quantity of the order. Sometimes the manual method works best for a given order.
Where computerized marker method cannot be beaten is when patterns need to be mass produced quickly…as only a CAD system can. The other advantage of the computerized method is that the markers can be digitally stored for future use, avoiding the necessity of reinventing the marker.
It just so happens, we can employ either method, depending on which one makes the most sense for your order.

Marker Making Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)s
-------------------------------------------------
What is a marker?
In apparel industry a marker is a blueprint containing all your pattern pieces and used in the cutting process to maximize fabric consumption. A marker will allow you to know exactly how many yards of fabric you need to buy to cut for example 1000 pair of jeans.
How do I calculate the total amount of sizes that I need in my marker?
Example: If you need to create a marker for the 4 sizes you have and want to mark
each size in 4 different fabrics (SELF) (LINING) (FUSING) (CONTRAST)
just multiply your sizes in this example 4 by the number of fabrics you will be
marking each size on in this case 4 fabrics so the formula should be:
4 SIZES X 4 FABRICS= 16 SIZES IN TOTAL TO BE MARKED.
