High hopes for aloe fibre

07/08/2009

Industry sources in China have predicted that aloe fibre could be on the verge of mass production.

The fibre is a multi-functional viscose fibre spun through mixing aloe extracted liquid and viscose together. It has high levels of moisture-absorption, breathability, comfort, dyeability,  anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, skin-friendly functionality and is already in use in apparel applications such as next-to-skin cloths.

Major producers include Xinxiang Chemical Fiber, Huzhou Jinsheng and Foshan Qianke Textile.
