12/09/2017
Austria-based fibre producer Lenzing Group has opened an Application Innovation Centre (AIC) in Hong Kong to test new products with Asian partners as well as its recently launched Refibra lyocell and EcoVero viscose.

“The proximity to important Asian customers and partners along the value chain creates a new dimension in our service offering,” said Robert van de Kerkhof, Lenzing’s chief commercial officer.

Eric Chan, general manager of Lenzing Fibers Hong Kong, added: “The new AIC also enables prototype production of textile fabrics made of Lenzing fibres, from the concept, dyeing and finishing to the precise measurement of all product data.”
