Techtextil und Texprocess mit starkem Wissensprogramm

Wie hilft KI in der Textilindustrie? Was tut sich im Bereich Recycling und Kreislaufwirtschaft? Von Nachhaltigkeit bis Digitalisierung sind es die großen und dringenden Themen, die die Leitmessen Techtextil und Texprocess mit ihrem Rahmenprogramm angehen: Die Techtextil- und Texprocess Foren stehen auch 2024 wieder für Content, Speaker*innen und Networking und so zu Plattformen für Wissenstransfer, fachlichen Austausch und Business-Anbahnung.

Wie hilft KI in der Textilindustrie? Was tut sich im Bereich Recycling und Kreislaufwirtschaft? Von Nachhaltigkeit bis Digitalisierung sind es die großen und dringenden Themen, die die Leitmessen Techtextil und Texprocess mit ihrem Rahmenprogramm angehen: Die Techtextil- und Texprocess Foren stehen auch 2024 wieder für Content, Speaker*innen und Networking und so zu Plattformen für Wissenstransfer, fachlichen Austausch und Business-Anbahnung.

Techtextil Forum: Von AI bis Zirkularität
Digitalisierung, Nachhaltigkeit, Lieferketten, alternative Materialien, Prozessoptimierung und Kreislaufwirtschaft: Was sind die neuesten Forschungsergebnisse, Technologien und Innovationen? Welche Trends und Lösungsansätze treiben die globale Textilbranche? Dazu bietet das Techtextil Forum an vier Tagen rund 50 Vorträge und Diskussionsrunden. Das Programm reicht dabei von A wie AI bis Z wie Zirkularität: Ricardo Vega Ayora (ITA Academy, Aachen) zeigt auf, wie künstliche Intelligenz gezielt für die Energie-Optimierung eingesetzt werden kann. Über ihren besonderen Durchbruch bei organischen Farbstoffen berichten Sophia Merve Ince und Dr. Recep Karadağ von Anatolian Colours. Textile Lösungen für die Zukunft liefern Moderator Dr. Jan Laperre (Centexbel) und Lea Zimmermann (DITF). Sie diskutieren, welche lebenswichtige Rolle Textilien im Kontext des Klimawandels übernehmen können und beleuchten ein aktuelles Forschungsprojekt zu energiefrei selbstkühlenden Textilien. Ein starker Schwerpunkt des Techtextil Forums liegt auf dem Feld Recycling. Dazu teilen unter anderem Johannes Leis (Sächsisches Textilforschungsinstitut) und Robin Oddon (Techtera) ihre Erkenntnisse in der Entwicklung von Kreislaufprozessen für die Bewirtschaftung von Verbundstoffabfällen und Abfällen. Lorenza Gardella (XLANCE) zeigt auf, welche Recyclingmöglichkeiten elastische Fasern auf Polyolefinbasis für neue Textilien eröffnen.

Texprocess Forum und Denim Talks: Zukunftsfähige nachhaltige Lösungen und Technologien stehen im Fokus. Content-Partner ist unter anderem der Verband Deutscher Maschinen- und Anlagenbau (VDMA Textile Care, Fabric and Leather), der von hier aus auch seine geführten Messerundgänge zu den Themen Digitalisierung und AI startet. Auf der Bühne diskutieren unter anderem im Econogy-Talk, co-hosted by VDMA, Federica Giachetti (Morgan Tecnica), Michael McDonald (SPESA) und Günter Veit (VEIT Group) darüber, wie Nachhaltigkeit mithilfe von technologischen Neuerungen implementiert werden kann.

Bei den Denim Talks laden Branchenexpert*innen dazu ein, die Zukunft der Denim-Industrie neu zu erleben. Besucher*innen erhalten Einblicke in zirkuläre Strategien und neue Verarbeitungstechnologien, treffen innovative Anbieter*innen und Akteure. Das Themenspektrum umfasst nachhaltige Ansätze für die Bereiche Washing, Destroying, Bleaching, Lasering, Dyeing, Re- und Upcycling oder Customizing. Mit dabei ist unter anderem Abdul Jabbar Athar (US Apparel & Textiles) mit seinem Vortrag „Denim Sustainability - A Nexus Approach“ sowie Enrico Cartabbia (MACPI Americas), der über die neuesten Innovationen für die Denim-Veredelung referiert.

Trumpler and Archroma launch tanning process for leather production

Trumpler has teamed up with Archroma to offer a leather production process that can be used to produce high-performance leather in a more eco-friendly and cost-efficient way.

The new process DyTan®combines offers an alternative to existing metal-free and chrome-tanned leather. It enables the reliable production of leather with great shavability, color depth and migration and abrasion resistance. Free from metal salts and reactive aldehydes, DyTan® is suitable for a wide range of leather applications, from garment and footwear to automotive and furniture upholstery, for today’s eco-conscious leather producers and consumers.

At the core of the DyTan® process is Archroma’s patented AVICUERO® System, which is based on novel molecules that enable more sustainable leather tanning and dyeing, developed by Archroma in cooperation with leather technology consultant Dr Leather. It enables collagen fibers in the leather to be covalently cross-linked through a simplified process at low temperatures. As a result, the system shows strong potential to save energy and water, while also reducing process time and CO2 emissions by up to 23%.*

The DyTan® process combines the AVICUERO® System with Trumpler’s bio-based fatliquors and retanning agents based on functional biopolymers produced from hydrolyzed shavings – resource-saving technology that Trumpler has been refining for 15 years.

As a global partner of Archroma, the Trumpler Group is responsible for the distribution of the AVICUERO® System worldwide. Delivering technical support and first-class customer care, Trumpler will help leather manufacturers and brands to implement sustainable tanning and draw on its comprehensive product portfolio and process knowledge of tanning, retanning and fatliquoring processes.
 

* Estimations carried out with the Archroma ONE WAY Impact Calculator show energy savings of up to 25% and reduced process time leading to a reduction in CO2 emissions of up to 23%, compared to traditional chrome tanning. They also show significant water savings compared to other metal-free tanning systems1. With the ONE WAY Impact Calculator, customers will be offered personalized calculations for their specific processes.

The Archroma Way

The solution systems and innovations presented by Archroma have all been selected for their compliance with “The Archroma Way: safe, efficient, enhanced, it’s our nature”. The approach finds its origin in Archroma’s deep belief that it is possible to make the textile industry sustainable.

At Techtextil India, visitors will be able to discover 10 systems developed along the principles of The Archroma Way to help them create value in their textile applications and markets, such as:

FOR AUTOMOTIVE & TRANSPORTATION

Archroma will present two systems ideally suited to textile manufacturers serving the automotive & transportation market:

  • Light Fast Car, a system designed to keep fabric colors deep, vibrant and matched day after day;
  • Safe Seats, a halogen-free* flame retardant coating system for synthetic leather upholstery.

FOR OUTDOOR & ACTIVE WEAR

  • Color Vibe, a system for nylon sportswear to maintain color vibrancy, time after time, wash after wash;
  • Fast Sport, a coloration system for polyester knitted sportswear, providing the best fastness in the shortest possible time with a reduced environmental footprint;
  • Odor Control, a system for improved material longevity, freshness and wearing comfort due to the lasting dual-action technology of Sanitized® Odoractiv 10. Odor-causing bacteria cannot adhere to the textile surface and bad smells are trapped and neutralized; and permastink cannot build-up in your sportswear;
  • Wick Stop, an anti-wicking system to keep your feet drier in the wet, with maximum mesh sneaker durability;

FOR WORKWEAR & UNIFORMS

  • Power Cotton, a system for comfortable cotton fabrics with more than 5 times higher abrasion resistance;
  • Smooth As Iron, a non-iron finishing system that keeps fabric smooth, soft and strong, especially on collars and cuffs;
  • Odor Control, (see above);
  • Tough Camo, A non-infrared reflective pigment printing system for military wear, with high durability and dramatically reduced water consumption;

AND FOR NON-WOVEN

  • Filter It Clean, a formaldehyde-free* and APEO-free bonding system that makes non-wovens strong and safe even when wet. “We are continuously developing innovations and solution systems that help increase productivity and create value for textile manufacturers in India,” says Anjani Prasad, Head of Sales, India, Archroma. “We do that with in mind the planet and its inhabitants, in line with the objectives of “The Archroma way": Safe, efficient, enhanced. Because it’s our nature!”
