This year Trevira, a European manufacturer of high-value branded polyester fibres and filament yarns, is once again present as an exhibitor at MoOD International Trade fair for producers of Upholstery, Window and Wall Coverings that takes place in Brussels this week.
“Customers indicated last year that they continue to value MoOD as a joint appearance of Trevira CS partners and we have therefore carried on the concept in 2014,” commented Anke Vollenbröker, Head of Marketing and Business Development at Trevira.
This year sees the addition of the VIP Lounge, available to customers for meetings. Fabric manufacturers with a broad variety of product programmes are presenting their latest Trevira CS collections at the fibre manufacturer’s joint stand: Delius, FIDIVI, Müller Zell, Pugi, Wintex, along with Mario Cavelli. Several more Trevira CS suppliers are at MoOD with their own stands.
“A product doing well is the range of hybrid yarns for stiffened materials – these are used especially in solar screening.” Anke Vollenbröker, Head of Marketing at Trevira commented. “Not only our own programme is developing continuously, there is also a series of new products emerging from yarn finishers.”
New products include yarns with enhanced UV stability. Recently introduced onto the market, they have been taken up by some fabric manufacturers working on initial developments. Possible applications include seat covers for outdoor furniture.
Use of these special newly developed yarns allows the manufacture of textile fabrics for interior solar screening that meets requirements in terms of light reflection, permeability and absorption, according to Anke Vollenbröker.
“As a result, they are able to contribute decisively to efficient energy management in buildings,” explained Vollenbröker.
“These textiles can also take over additional functions, such as sound proofing, for instance. They are free from PVC, formaldehyde and halogen. It is now possible to create a variety of different looks in solar shading – the range extends from extremely flat technical surfaces to natural looks. We continue to see great potential in spun-dyed yarns, an area of ongoing importance to us. These yarns are also in fashion for ecological reasons, since there is no need for an additional dyeing here.”
