Problem
A significant percentage of bra wearers experience discomfort and dissatisfaction due to ill-fitting garments, with many resorting to discarding bras that do not meet their needs. The traditional bra manufacturing process also contributes to substantial textile waste and microplastic pollution.
Solution
Uuna addresses these issues by providing custom-fit, 3D knitted bras manufactured using patented processes and sustainable materials. The Uuna system utilizes a proprietary measurement technique, involving 3D scanning of the torso, to capture precise body data. Advanced AI algorithms then process this data to generate digital patterns for seamless, single-piece bra construction. This approach ensures a personalized fit, reduces material waste by knitting only what is required, and minimizes the environmental impact associated with traditional bra production.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes individuals seeking comfortable and well-fitting bras, with a specific focus on underserved segments such as post-surgery bra users.
