04/08/2017
In the build-up to the event, organiser, Messe Frankfurt, said: “As one of the industry’s powerhouses when it comes to innovation, the Taiwan exhibitors will be out in force in the Functional Lab. In addition to the expanded Taiwan Pavilion inside the Functional Lab (hall 5.2), a number of innovative products will also be on offer in the main Taiwan Pavilion in hall 6.2.”
As an example of what visitors can expect from Taiwanese exhibitors at the fair, Singtex will have its Biotec range of fibres, including the well known coffee-based S.Café products. These now range from the S.Café Airmem membrane to S.Café sefia, a natural functional fabric made from lyocell and the original S.Café yarn.
Kong You Industrial will feature a new technology at the fair: a waterproof, microporous PU membrane with enhanced breathability and four-way stretch technology employed during the melt extrusion process of the knitted fabric and PU membrane.
Also at the event, Sheng Ye will showcase a new-generation, eco-friendly, lightweight composite fabric. This fabric contains a high-tech film with pores that are extremely small and have an irregular curved arrangement, giving it a high level of air permeability and resistance to water pressure. PFC-free, it is also biodegradable. This fabric is suited to outdoor wear and outdoor supplies.
Finally, polyester manufacturer Far Eastern New Century will present its new TopDry Zero Yarn at the fair, a PFC-free polyester with a high level of durable water repellency (DWR).
