Teijin Frontier, the Teijin Group’s fibre-product converting company, and Nantong Teijin, the group’s polyester textile manufacturing and processing company, will participate in Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics, which will be held at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre from 21-24 October.

The two companies will exhibit a wide range of apparel solutions covering fibres, textiles and value-added fibre products, aiming to promote their ongoing expansion both in China and the global market.

Materials showcased

The Teijin Frontier will feature a large collection of men’s apparel fabrics, from suits to casual outerwear, developed with the Teijin Frontier’s advanced converting capabilities.

The Nantong Teijin booth will present high-quality polyester materials for applications such as casual lightweight down jackets, kitted sportswear and uniforms, including:

• Polyester taffetas made with Microft, a moisture-permeable, water-repellent fabric produced with high-performance microfiber; and
• Knitted-shirt fabrics made with fibres offering special functional properties for heat shielding or adjustable ventilation.

Also presented will be Eco Circle, the closed-loop recycling system developed by the Teijin group, which turns used polyester into new fibres that are said to offer the purity and quality of petroleum-derived fibres.
