Reviews
Blending Tradition & Technology at Robert Mackie
Inside the Robert Mackie factory, the hum of modern knitting machines and casual chatter reveal a refreshing fusion of heritage and innovation. “There are people here who have over 30 years of service with us,” says Brian Ashard, Production Manager at the company. “It’s a job for life.”
The original Robert Mackie, established in Stewarton in 1845, specialised in traditional Scottish headwear, particularly Glengarry and Balmoral bonnets. As it expanded into contemporary accessories knitted from natural fibres, investing in top-tier machinery became a priority to enhance efficiency and sustainability.
“Although we’re using technology to make the initial product, many of the finishing processes are still quite traditional,” Brian explains. “You need somebody with good attention to detail to examine it for flaws and attach the label neatly. These are skilled roles that haven’t changed over the years.”
