Hyosung extends fibre offering for denim blends

14/08/2019
Following a “positive reaction” from brands at Bluezone fabric fair in Munich in January, Hyosung TNC will showcase an increased offering of performance and sustainable fibres for denim at the September edition.

Bluezone is Munich Fabric Start’s independent concept for the denim and sportswear community and involves more than 100 international suppliers.

Hyosung says its nylon and polyester fibres have been developed for consumers who want to wear jeans on all occasions. 

MIPANaqua X nylon and askin polyester are cooling fibres that deliver freshness with wicking performance while Aerolight is a high-count filament polyester fibre.

“Aerolight fibre is suitable for all seasons, combining the advantages of both synthetic and natural fibres,” said Simon Whitmarsh-Knight, EMEA Marketing Director for Hyosung. “With a C-shaped cross section it provides excellent moisture management, with a softer, more natural feel than a standard polyester.” 

Hyosung TNC manufactures creora fibre, the world’s largest elastane brand. “Creora eco-soft elastane not only contributes energy saving for sustainability with low heat setting features, but also enables stable production of 4-way stretch, with creora Fit2 technology and warp stretch denim,” added Mr Whitmarsh-Knight. “This September, we will also be showcasing our new range of sustainable elastanes.”
