October 17, 2012 - Germany
Specializing in transfer and screen printing, retro-reflective materials and silicone grip elastic applications, Regine/IQtrim will be showcasing at PERFORMANCE DAYS in November its innovative array of high performance techniques that can be used alone or combined together.
A long time PERFORMANCE DAYS exhibitor, REGINE/IQtrim will be presenting its collection of high visibility, functional and decorative ribbons, trimmings, transfers and fabrics at the fair on November 12th to 14th, in Munich. Used to enhance functionality, create distinctive decorative effects or for branding purposes, the company’s products are designed for active sportswear as well as for workwear.
In the field of retro-reflection, a dynamic market always on the lookout for new design options, Regine/IQtrim is introducing an expanded palette of print solutions in the reflective IQseenTM range. Now even photo-realistic multicolor designs can be made for reflective transfers. Fabrics illuminated by car´s headlights for example reflect the design in a clear silver/white appearance. Specializing in a wide array of printing techniques, Regine/IQtrim combines retro-reflection and elastic trimming with printed patterns that can be personalized on request. The dual effect creates a graphic effect by day and reflects light by night.
One further great innovation Regine shows in the field of silicone grip finishings for elastic and retro-reflective grounds. A new three-dimensional gripper print for elastics offers a very haptic way to add functionality to finished products. A novel two-in-one fold-over elastic trim boasts a reflective surface on one side and a silicone grip on the inside.
The highly innovative company continues to develop new processes that cater to the evolving needs of the active sportswear and workwear industries. Regine is also committed to offering innovative products that have a lighter environmental footprint and is in the process of bluesign certification.
Regine, a family-owned company founded 40 years ago, specializes in narrow and elastic materials available with various finishings, including screen printing, transfer printing and rotary printing.
