Teijin aims novel polyester fibre at sportswear

17/12/2015
Japanese textile developer Teijin Frontier has developed a hollow, eight-fin polyester fibre for sportswear.

Octa Neo combines the low weight, high bulkiness, absorption and water diffusion of Octa with the texture and softness of staple fibres selected for each application. It also offers stiffness, stretchiness and breathability.

It plans to release Octa Neo in time for 2017 spring/summer sportswear and is targeting annual sales of 500,000 metres by 2020.
