Satab combinesartisanal and industrial
expertise
65 traditional “shuttle” looms, the oldest of which dates back to 1874, churn out the SATAB ribbons with remarkable effects. They are absolutely ideal for producing ribbons with special edges, weaving high quality jacquards and ensuring optimum refinement to top of the range products!
Here in SATAB, we combine artisanal and industrial expertise. In Saint-Just-Malmont, 300 cutting edge needle looms boasting a production capacity of ribbons, braids or petershams roll out 5 million metres per week!
We also have the world’s biggest fleet of traditional working looms enabling us to be awarded the EVP (Living Heritage Company) label.

This fleet of old wooden “shuttle” looms calls for complex experience which is passed on within the company by the artisanal ribbon makers to the new generations.
