Taiwan’s leading textile manufacturers are presenting innovative products like sustainable textiles and performance fabrics.
As the global hub for functional fabric production, Taiwan accounts for 50 per cent of the global output value of all functional fabrics, making Taiwan the world’s largest functional fabric production base.
New product categories include endurance materials seen as an alternative to spandex, wool-synthetic knitted fabric blends designed for temperature regulation through an evaporative cooling process, eco-friendly fabrics with stretch qualities similar to elastene, but with better breathability, fast dryness, durability and friendlier to the environment, and functional and natural fiber products.
Taiwan's competitive advantage in functional, environmental and smart fabrics includes strong development and integration abilities for functional artificial fibers, and an excellent ability to provide a wide variety of differentiated and customized fabrics in small quantities. It also includes low pollution and energy consumption in the production process, innovative technologies in its semiconductor and biomedical industries, electronic components, and cross-industry integration.
Evertex Fabrinology is dedicated to producing highly technical knit fabrics with heavy emphasis on durability, performance and comfort for outdoor enthusiasts during extreme excursions. Tex-Ray Industrial has integrated yarn dyeing, fabric and garment production with manufacturing. It has developed innovative products to satisfy various climates, functions, and environmental protections.
