Spinexpo to be held in Shanghai from August 29 to 31 will feature latest yarn, fiber, knitwear, knitted fabric and active wear collections. Top Chinese and global companies are ready to present their latest production. For example, China-based Diyang Merino Textile, a high-quality knitter with dyeing and finishing capabilities, will present its latest fabric technology. The company specialises in fine micron merino wool for circular knitting to more than industry customers worldwide, with a focus on outdoors and sportswear markets. The company’s patented technologies Hydro-duct, Wooloft and Merino Ultimate are meant to enhance the unique property of merino wool for outdoor sporting activities.

Aquafil will present Dryarn, an innovative microfiber said to be one of the lightest fibers in the world, water-repellent, breathable, bacteriostatic and dermatologically tested. Dryarn is ideal for a wide range of uses, such as first and second layers of clothing, fashion and sportswear. Dryarn performs best when used in its purest form or in high percentage blends with other raw materials. It can prevent the absorption of moisture and is highly permeable for water vapor. This can give the fiber exceptional breathability: perspiration evaporates quickly without soaking the fabric, thus ensuring that the skin is always dry. Invista is introducing latest Coolmax technology solutions.
