Teijin Frontier, the Teijin group's fibre-product converting company, and Nantong Teijin, the group’s textiles manufacturing and sales company based in Nantong, China, will participate in Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics–Autumn Edition 2017. The leading exhibition of apparel fabric and accessories will be held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai, from 11-13 October.

Teijin Frontier will attend the show for a seventh consecutive year to exhibit a variety of special garment materials, including stretchable, shape-retaining Solotex, Deltapeak adopted in sports apparel, highly water-repellent outerwear material, materials made with Solotex, collaborative products made with the Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, and undergarment materials made with Nanofront and Waveron.

Nantong Teijin’s 15th consecutive annual stand will showcase a range of eco-friendly materials, including chemically recycled polyester materials and Solotex, a partially bio-delivered material incorporating polytrimethylene terephthalate fibre. The stand will also present Microft, a moisture-permeable, water-repellent material made with high-performance microfiber, and propose new materials for fashion wear, uniforms and knitted materials.
