The Teijin Frontier booth (Hall W2, Stand E17) 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 (Hall W5, Stand D06) 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 fibers offering special functional properties for heat shielding or adjustable ventilation.

Also presented will be ECO CIRCLE, the world's first closed-loop recycling system developed by the Teijin group, which turns used polyester into new fibers that offer the purity and quality of petroleum-derived fibers.
