Teijin debuts sports fabrics at Performance Days
14/05/2013
The Taiwanese company is attending the fair for the first time to promote its expansion into the functional sportswear market.
The company will present new products including Deltapeak, a knitted polyester fabric that offers a combination of softness, durability and snag resistance, plus stretching, ultraviolet protection and anti-transparency. It also has wind-blocking properties due to its dense, flat-knit surface.
Anti-sweat Comfort Type CR is a lightweight, thin, three-layer fabric made with water-repellent polyester fibres with enhanced absorption and quick-drying properties.
Eco Storm is a lightweight, high-performance material, waterproof and breathable, featuring recycled polyester laminated with a thin but durable polyester film. Eco Storm is ideal for outdoor clothing, including shell jackets, sportswear and rain gear.
Odor-Control – Type EP is a polyester fabric that maintains its mildly acidic pH level even when the wearer is perspiring, satisfying needs for clothing that is gentle to skin. It is an anti-bacterial, odour-prevention, metal-free material that does not use silver coats or any metal-based agent.
All materials can be recycled with Teijin's ECO CIRCLE, which it claims is the world's first closed-loop recycling system that turns used polyester into new fibres that offer the purity and quality of petroleum-derived fibres.
