Developing the right tools for the right job is a part of us since the very inception of the company.
At Design & Develop, our in-house team is dedicated to the creation and dissemination of both digital and physical tools aimed at innovating the footwear industry. When needed, we can also develop fully customized software solutions tailored to specific client requirements, bridging the gap between creative vision and technical execution.
FTWKit. The Footwear kit for Rhino
Our FTWKit is a growing family of plugins developed in-house to enhance digital shoe modeling and engineering. Built around the powerful Rhino3D platform, these tools allow for faster, more precise creation of virtual prototypes — streamlining the design-to-production pipeline and helping ideas become manufacturable reality.
3D Air Aurora Machine
We are official European distributors of the Air Aurora Machine. An AI-powered cold plasma solution for the footwear industry. This ecological and cost-effective technology replaces traditional, polluting sole-preparation methods — such as buffing and chemical washing — with a fully automated treatment that uses only compressed air and electricity. With Air Aurora, sustainability meets performance at every step.
