More than 60 representatives from the global textile market attended the first International Active Textiles Symposium, held in Düsseldorf, Germany, on April 18-19. The event was organised by specialty chemicals supplier Cognis, which provided a forum for discussions on how technological innovations can help to add value to products, improve brand image and increase market share.

Cognis’ Active Textiles business unit offers actives derived from renewable sources which enable textile and fashion manufacturers to produce functional clothing with cooling, revitalising, odour-absorbing or sun protection properties.
