Arville, a leading technical textiles specialist, will be presenting its latest innovations at the Techtextil trade fair for technical textiles and nonwovens, which will be held from 9-12 May in Frankfurt, Germany.

Following a period of continued growth across a range of industry sectors including automotive, aerospace, defence and filtration, the 2017 event at Messe Frankfurt will see Arville’s showcase featured at a brand new location.

Arville’s knowledgeable team of specialists will be on hand to ensure delegates are aware of the company’s latest innovations within technical textile design, weaving, finishing, coating and fabrication.

Customer requirements

According to the manufacturer, with the company’s manufacturing capabilities constantly pushing new boundaries towards achieving high performance characteristics such as durability, strength, chemical/heat/flame resistance, lightweighting and cost-reduction, the event presents a unique opportunity for visitors to discuss their individual textile requirements on a face-to-face basis.

“Some customers know exactly what they require, whereas others are typically held back because they simply don’t know what’s feasible. That’s why we’re encouraging visitors to come and talk to us, however complex, unusual or budget constrained their needs,” commented Arville spokesperson Andy Smith.

“We have tackled incredibly difficult projects, with an established customer-base in more than 50 countries worldwide, which is why this is a great chance to explore new ground and discuss how high performance fabrics can be developed.”

New coating plant

The 2017 Techtextil event follows a significant period of development for the UK-based textiles specialist. The company recently completed a £1 million upgrade of its fabric coating plant following a two-year project to overhaul the site. A new stenter line doubled the finishing capacity at Arville’s weaving plant and the installation of a five-figure laser flatbed cutting table has improved the speed and quality of Arville’s fabrication capabilities.

“We’re continually investing in processes, cutting-edge machinery and people, which translates into increasingly more advanced solutions for our customers. We’ve also got further investments planned for the next 24 months, which will be mirrored by the ongoing growth of our multi-disciplined textiles team,” concluded Andy Smith.
