The Norman Group, which has replaced Trerè Innovation as the manufacturer of X-Technology's products in Italy, is investing in a new factory in Serbia that will become operational in the spring of 2019, with a capacity of six million pieces per year. The company currently manufactures about 15 million units annually at three factories, one in Italy near Mantua and the other two in Romania and the Czech Republic. X-Technology will use the Serbian plant for private label and contract manufacturing. Its X-Bionic and X-Socks lines will be made at Norman's Future Factory in Italy except for special cut-and-sew jackets, which will be produced in Portugal.
