Trevira at Heimtextil 2020

The Trevira CS joint booth at Heimtextil 2020 was once again a success.

Trevira looks back on a successful trade fair appearance at Heimtexil 2020. The concept of a joint booth together with customers along with the presentation of product innovations and a special exhibition dedicated to the contract sector has once again proved its worth. Trevira hosted 31 co-exhibitors thus increasing the number of participants again compared to last year. Members of the entire textile value chain were present at the Trevira stand: from the fibre production and yarn manufacture, to the colouring, weaving and warp and weft knitting stages, to the textile editor.

Klaus Holz, CEO Trevira GmbH: „We are pleased about the very positive feedback we got on our joint booth at Heimtextil 2020 from our customers and the visitors to our stand. It shows that our concept is successful and that the booth works well as a market place for Trevira CS.”

Product novelties were presented in an Innovation Park. Under the headline “Recycling at Trevira” the fibre producer presented its sustainable product range and diversified approaches to recycling: flame retardant fibres are produced from residual materials, which are reprocessed in an agglomeration plant. The recyclates are then deployed in the spinning facility to make new, high-quality products consisting of 100 % pre-consumer recycled material. Recycled, flame retardant filaments are produced from PET bottles and have a recycled content of 50 %. Standard polyester spun-dyed filament yarns are also available in a recycled version. Produced from PET bottles these yarns have a recycled content of 100 %.

In order to produce flame retardant fabrics which are also high-performing  in outdoor applications, Trevira now offers six more colours in addition to the existing colour range of 24 UV-stable, spun-dyed filament yarns. Trevira had been awarded the „Brandenburger Innovationspreis Kunststoffe und Chemie 2019“ for this innovation.

Cationic dyeable fibres and filament yarns enhance the Trevira portfolio of flame retardant specialties. They are used to create melange designs in fabrics, which still represents a strong trend in the home textile sector.

To meet the ever more complex demands of the market for more flexibility in design and additional functions as well as for sustainable products Trevira has introduced an enhanced Trevira CS branding concept, consisting of the three brands Trevira CS, Trevira CS flex und Trevira CS eco. Assigned according to product features, all of them stand for tested safety.

Marktforschungsstudie: Outdoor ist ein menschliches Grundbedürfnis

Was ist „Outdoor“ und welche Bedeutung hat es für den Menschen? Welche Hürden gilt es, für das perfekte Outdoor-Erlebnis zu überwinden? Im Auftrag des OutDoor by ISPO Teams der Messe München suchte das renommierte Kölner Marktforschungsinstitut Rheingold deutschlandweit Antworten auf diese Fragen und erforschte den seelischen Kern von Outdoor. Aus den Ergebnissen lassen sich konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen für Outdoor-Hersteller und Fachhändler ableiten.

Die Teilnehmer der Studie „Outdoor as a human need“ wurden nach ihren inneren Wünschen, Sehnsüchten, Ängsten und Idealen im Zusammenhang mit Outdoor-Aktivitäten befragt. Das Ergebnis: „Outdoor“ ist ein Prozess, so individuell wie die Menschen selbst und stark mit Emotionen verbunden. Es gilt Hemmschwellen abzubauen, Ängste und Unsicherheiten zu überwinden, um schließlich gestärkt hervorzugehen. Deutlich wird zudem, dass „Outdoor“ in unserer schnelllebigen Gesellschaft einen immer höheren Stellenwert genießt. Als verbindendes Lebensgefühl hält es Einzug in den Alltag und das urbane Leben. Die Aktivitäten selbst können vielfältiger Natur sein, weit über Wandern, Klettern oder Camping hinaus.

Das Ergebnis: „Outdoor“ ist ein Prozess, so individuell wie die Menschen selbst und stark mit Emotionen verbunden.

Deutlich wird zudem, dass „Outdoor“ in unserer schnelllebigen Gesellschaft einen immer höheren Stellenwert genießt. Als verbindendes Lebensgefühl hält es Einzug in den Alltag und das urbane Leben. Die Aktivitäten selbst können vielfältiger Natur sein, weit über Wandern, Klettern oder Camping hinaus.

Die wichtigsten Erkenntnisse zum Kern von Outdoor, zu den persönlichen Herausforderungen der Aspiranten und Sportler, sowie zum Stellenwert von Produkten, Marken und Händlern im Überblick:

Outdoor ist ein Prozess
Alle Outdoor-Momente entstehen in mehreren Schritten, vom Wunsch des Draußen Seins und der Planung über die Durchführung bis zum Nachhause Kommen. Jeder dieser Schritte ist mit Emotionen verbunden: Ängste und Unsicherheit verbunden mit Neugierde werden abgelöst von Euphorie, wenn das gesetzte Ziel erreicht ist – sei es das Bezwingen des Berggipfels, das Reiten auf der perfekten Welle oder das Lagerfeuer am See. Was danach bleibt, ist ein Gefühl der Stärke bei der Rückkehr in den Alltag.

Outdoor spielt sich in vier Dimensionen ab:
Outdoor-Aktivitäten lassen sich in einem Spannungsfeld aus vier Haupt-Dimensionen einordnen: Die zivilisierte Absicherung im kultivierten Raum, die demütige Eingliederung und die natürliche Ursprünglichkeit in der Wildnis sowie das kämpferische Bewältigen. So findet der eine seinen Ausgleich beim Spaziergang querfeldein oder beim Fischen am Weiher nebenan, der andere beim Klettern mit Seil und Haken in Steilwänden. Daraus ergeben sich verschiedene Denkweisen, wie Outdoor umschrieben werden kann. Während „in der Natur aufgehen“ der klassische Outdoor-Ansatz ist, der durch „Survival und Adrenalin“ erweitert wird, sind der sogenannte „gerahmte Eskapismus“ und das „Urban Warrior“-Motiv neue Felder. Sie werden von den Konsumenten allgemein hin bereits als „Outdoor“ wahrgenommen und gelebt.

Ausrüstung dient als Eintrittskarte und Aushängeschild
Die richtige Ausrüstung ermöglicht den Zugang zu bestimmten Outdoor-Aktivitäten. Sie unterstützt, bietet Schutz und kann bei manchen Sportarten das Überleben im Falle eines falschen Handelns sichern. Im Widerspruch dazu steht der Gedanke des Verzichts und der Ursprünglichkeit, den viele mit dem Outdoor-Begriff verbinden. Allgemein gilt: Funktion und Qualität steht über allem, modische Aspekte ordnen sich zwar dahinter ein, dienen bei der Kaufentscheidung jedoch als ausschlaggebendes Unterscheidungsmerkmal.

Auch nach der Rückkehr leistet Ausrüstung noch ihre Dienste, beispielsweise die Funktionsjacke beim Pendeln zur Arbeit mit dem Fahrrad. Nebenbei transportiert sie dann ein Stück Outdoor-Feeling in den Alltag und dient als Aushängeschild eines aktiven Lebensstils – der Kern des Urban Outdoor-Gedankens.

Händler als Wegweiser, Marken als Begleiter
Händler ebnen den Weg zum Outdoor-Erlebnis. Sie verkaufen nicht nur ein Produkt, sondern unterstützen beim Einstieg in die Outdoor-Welt oder auch bei der Weiterentwicklung. Sofern der Händler richtig auf den Kunden eingeht, nimmt er ihn bereits im Laden oder auf der Website mit auf ein Abenteuer – eines, das im Kopf stattfindet und Sehnsüchte weckt.

Marken sind über ihre Produkte zuverlässige Partner während des Abenteuers. Je leistungsorientierter eine Outdoor-Aktivität betrieben wird, desto höher ist das Fachwissen über einzelne Marken, sie und ihre Produkte können klar benannt werden.

Die Versöhnung von Wildnis und Zivilisation – Outdoor im Alltag
Outdoor heißt, ein Stück Kultiviertheit mit in die Ursprünglichkeit mitzunehmen, je nach Ausrüstung mehr oder weniger stark ausgeprägt. Vor allem technische Ausrüstung bietet eine gewisse Bequemlichkeit: Statt Landkarte und Kompass heißt es GPS-Gerät mit zuvor aufgespielter Route, statt Lagerfeuer und Fackel werden Gaskocher und Stirnlampe genutzt. Outdoor im Alltag wiederum transportiert das Wilde in das Kultivierte – und manifestiert so das Stärke-Gefühl von Outdoor-Abenteuern im täglichen Leben. Sei es durch kleine Herausforderungen wie einer neuen Route auf dem Weg zur Arbeit, durch Erinnerungen oder der Überführung von Outdoor-Bekleidung, -Ausrüstung und -Nahrung in den Alltag.

Outdoor – seelisches Bedürfnis trifft auf Einstiegshürden
Menschen suchen im Outdoor-Erlebnis den temporären Ausstieg aus dem Alltäglichen, ohne Druck und Stress. Viele Outdoor-Marken jedoch vermitteln in ihrer Bildsprache anderes. Sie zeigen Profis, es entsteht der Eindruck von Leistungsorientierung und Wettkampf. Auch die Angst vor Kontrollverlust, aufgrund von fehlendem Wissen und Können sowie äußeren Einflüssen, macht einigen Outdoor-Aspiranten Angst. Und nicht zuletzt kann der Wohnort eine Hürde sein. Nicht jeder hat vor der Haustüre das geeignete Outdoor-Umfeld. Die Community, die bei der Überwindung dieser Schwierigkeiten helfen kann, wird häufig als exklusiv und ebenfalls leistungsorientiert wahrgenommen.

Konsumentendenken als Basis für die Entwicklung der Branche
Aus diesen Kernaussagen ergeben sich konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen für Hersteller und Händler für die Erschließung neuer Zielgruppen und zur Optimierung bestehender Angebote. Es gilt eine „Willkommenskultur“ mit niedrigen Einstiegsschwellen und Erlebniswelten für Outdoor-Enthusiasten jeglichen Niveaus zu schaffen – über differenzierte Angebote und ganzheitliche Ansätze in Produktentwicklung, Marketing und Vertrieb. Zugleich darf die Begehrlichkeit von „Outdoor“ nicht herabgestuft werden. Details dazu finden sich in den sieben Whitepapers zur Studie. Sie stehen online zum Download  bereit.

Das aufgezeigte Konsumentendenken und -handeln spiegelt sich auch im neuen Konzept der OutDoor by ISPO wieder. Es vereint neue, in der Gesellschaft bereits anerkannte Outdoor-Segmente wie Mountainbike, Trailrunning oder Watersports mit klassischen Themen wie Klettern oder Wandern. Zur jährlich stattfindenden Fachmesse werden alle Bereiche stark erlebnisorientiert präsentiert. Rund um die Messe gibt es ein unterstützendes, ganzjähriges Netzwerk aus digitalen und analogen Services.

Zur Methodik der Studie
Bei der Durchführung der Studie unter dem Titel „Outdoor as a human need“ folgte das Rheingold Institut einem qualitativen Ansatz. Mit Hilfe der ISPO Open Innovation-Community wurden mehrere Probanden zum Thema Outdoor befragt. Aus den Antworten entwickelte das Forscherteam Hypothesen, die anschließend in zwei Gruppen unter Anleitung eines Psychologen diskutiert wurden. Die Ergebnisse aus diesen Gesprächsrunden dienten dann als Basis für tiefenpsychologische Einzelinterviews mit einer Gesamtdauer von über 36 Stunden.

DENISOL®, BRINGING INDIGO BACK TO ITS ROOTS - NOW ANILINE-FREE*
Archroma’s Denisol® range is a newly developed pre-reduced liquid indigo solution that is manufactured in Archroma’s award winning ‘zero liquid discharge’ manufacturing plant in Pakistan. Denisol® Indigo 30 liq is compliant with major official eco-standards and requirements from retailers, brands and fashion leading companies and helps to produce fabrics suitable for current eco-labeling such as bluesign® and GOTS.

Responding to demands for a non-toxic alternative to the dyes that are used for the iconic and traditional indigo blue that consumers associate with denim and jeans, Archroma just announced the upcoming new Denisol® Pure Indigo 30.

ADVANCED DENIM, TOWARDS WATERLESS DENIM DYEING
Consider this: The water needed to produce one pair of jeans is said to be ~ 11'000 liters(1). With approximately 167 million pairs of jeans produced monthly(2), that is 1,837,000,000,000 liters of water consumed every month in the process!
Based on the Denim-Ox and Pad/Sizing-Ox dyeing processes, Archroma’s multi-awarded ADVANCED DENIM, dyeing technology allows savings of up to 92% in water, 87% in cotton waste and 30% in energy, compared to a conventional denim dyeing process.

The technology has been adopted by brands like Patagonia and received the prestigious 2012 ICIS Innovation Award and Innovation with Best Environmental Benefit Award.

  • Optisul® C, “soft colors” made easy
    With Optisul® C dyes, denim manufacturers can produce soft denim colors in continuous dyeing processes, as well as on coating and printing. Optisul® C affinity-free, sulfide-free dyes can easily be combined with each other to create garments suitable for wash-down treatments in a wide array of easily achievable and reproducible soft colors.
    They are suitable for GOTS and bluesign® approval.
  • Diresul® RDT Ocean Blues, ocean-themed bright sulfur blue dyes
    Archroma’s Diresul® RDT Ocean Blues are a collection of vibrant, ocean-themed bright sulfur blue dyes. These best-in-class dyes and their auxiliaries bring out the best of indigo, improve workability, dyeing consistency and process safety.
    They can be combined with Denisol® Indigo 30 liq in bottoming/topping manufacturing routes for avant-garde blue styles.
  • Diresul® blacks & greys, a cosmos of greys and deep black and navies
    Archroma’s dye portfolio of conventional and black Diresul® specialties allow to create a universe of greys and deep black and navies. From superficial to solid blacks for both extreme wash-down and stay black effects.

EARTHCOLORS, TRACEABLE FROM NATURE TO FASHION
The EarthColors patented range of “biosynthetic” dyes for cotton and cellulose-based fabrics, which are made from waste left over by the agricultural and herbal industry after extraction, such as almond shells, saw palmetto, or rosemary leaves. The latest NFC technology used on the end-product hangtags enables transparency and traceability through the supply chain to consumers.
The EarthColors allow to produce the earth tones that are coming strong: red, brown and green colors. They have been adopted by brands such as Patagonia, Kathmandu and G-Star, and won an OutDoor Industry Award 2017.

COATING, A WHOLE UNIVERSE OF COLORS AND EFFECTS
Archroma’s dye and chemical specialties portfolio allows to create exciting colors and effects using coating applications, from exclusive sulfur dyes and pigment specialties that help highlighting the indigo look, to functional finishes that give performance to denim garments - using water-based, formaldehyde-free or ultra-low formaldehyde polymers.

SOLUTION PACKAGES FOR SUSTAINABILITY
Archroma recently introduced the ONE WAY Process Simulator, the last update of a calculation tool that supports its ONE WAY Sustainability Service introduced back in 2012. The new, online software can be used to mimic and compare products and processes, and thus calculate the ecological and economical profile of the final end-product.
Archroma’s portfolio of ZDHC MRSL-compliant chemicals and dyes is integrated into the ONE WAY calculation tool since 2013.
“It is time to make denim in a whole different way; denim that brings together innovation, sustainability and creativity,” says Anjani Prasad, Head of Sales India, Archroma. “Brands around the globe are exploring how to make fashion in a cleaner and safer way, and Archroma has the solutions to do just that, to create denim with a soul.”

coldblack®: Schoeller cooperates with Südwolle Group

OutDoor2018: Schoeller’s coldblack® technology has been specifically optimized for use on knitted and woven fabrics so brands can now expand their product application uses. Under the blazing sun, textiles with coldblack® heat up less and stay cool to the touch. Südwolle Group, a leading manufacturer of high quality yarns, has also recognized the ideal combination of merino and coldblack®. With this, the wear comfort of wool apparel can be tangibly improved.

Wool is well known for its various property benefits, including insulation, natural antibacterial protection, odor control, light weight and nearly wrinkle free composition. Not only in the winter time, but also in summer particularly merino wool, a special high-quality type of wool, regulates moisture balance and thus the body temperature. The fibers can absorb a great deal of moisture or sweat and transport it away from the body. Warm ambient air quickly dries the material and causes a cooling evaporation, which makes it very comfortable to wear merino apparel in the summer time.

The fibers can absorb a great deal of moisture or sweat and transport it away from the body. Warm ambient air quickly dries the material and causes a cooling evaporation, which makes it very comfortable to wear merino apparel in the summer time.

coldblack® technology from Schoeller supports the natural properties of wool because it reliably reduces heat build-up when exposed to the sun. Together with the help of Südwolle Group, the finish has been optimized specifically for the use in merino apparel. The yarn manufacturer chooses coldblack® for a variety of uses, especially for knitting and weaving yarns for sports and outdoor apparel and develops such products individually according to its customers’ requirements.

Stéphane Thouvay, Managing Director Product Management & Innovation at Südwolle Group, summarizes the use of the technology as follows: “coldblack® is part of our product range for the summer time, which we will be presenting at OutDoor show in Friedrichshafen. The technology reduces not only heat build-up, but also enhances the natural UV protection of wool without affecting the look and feel of the fabric. Therefore coldblack® perfectly fits into our yarn selection for sports and outdoor apparel, for example in our collection ʻYarn in Motion’. For end consumers garments made of coldblack® yarns can optionally be labeled with hangtags.”

When used in high-quality woolen fabrics, coldblack® has already proven its performance and is being used by renowned brands in various collections of men’s suits. Since 2008, the technology has been licensed by more than 200 brands, in sports particularly in the field of cycling, triathlon and golf. All components of the finish are bluesign® approved.

Japan Pavilion keeps ‘Banshu-Ori’ tradition alive
Organised by the Japan Fashion Week Organization (JFW), the Japan Pavilion will house 22 exhibitors and also feature a Japan Trend Corner. After the immense popularity of this pavilion with buyers in previous editions, the organisers are in a good position to comment on the trends in the local market. “The now mature Chinese market tends to seek out very different types of products and purchase in smaller batches, which is a world away from the mass-production focus of the past,” JFW commented.

Included in this edition’s Japan Pavilion are three companies from the Nishiwaki region, which is famous for its ‘Banshu-Ori’, or Banshu weave. Banshu-Ori is a yarn-dyed fabric, woven into various patterns, such as checks and stripes, with yarns that are dyed before being woven by weaving machines. This tradition dates back to 1792, and will be showcased by Bon Co Ltd, Ueyama Orimono Corp and Kuwamura Co Ltd at the fair. Bon will showcase a range of new products using this traditional technique, including organic cotton fabrics, paper yarn fabrics and indigo items. Ueyama Orimono, which boasts Japan’s largest dyeing factory in Nishiwaki, designs its own fabrics in Tokyo, and will present cotton, cotton / linen and medium-thin yarn-dyed fabrics at the fair. Kuwamura will showcase fabrics based on 100% yarn-dyed cotton, as well as cotton and cotton-blend materials.

Taiwan Pavilion the place to find innovation
The Taiwan Pavilion, with over 40 participating companies, is a guaranteed source of innovation at the fair, with a number of exhibitors also offering eco-friendly options. Some of the highlights include:

  • Keen Ching Industrial: they will have a number of their patented KCC-branded zippers at the fair including a durable double-coil zipper, an invisible zipper with a movable retainer box, a track type water-repellent zipper, a curved metal zipper and more.
  • Handseltex Industrial: will showcase a wide range of products including lace, jacquard and mesh, made with the likes of organic cotton and recycled polyester with an eco-friendly production process.
  • Paltex: the company’s ‘From Waste to Yarn’ regeneration system involves turning waste fishing nets and plastic bottles from the ocean into polyester and nylon fabrics, membranes and trimmings.
  • Superwill: their unique gradient fabric combines specialty yarns and a special knitting process, and features a thickness that decreases from top to bottom. This design allows the fabric to be tailored to different garments.
  • Tri Ocean Textile: will feature its own DreamFel® high-performance filament polypropylene yarn which is lightweight, durable and environmentally friendly, and used in sports & outdoor apparel and outdoor furniture.

The Taiwan Pavilion will be full of innovative textile solutions again this edition
The Korea and Pakistan Pavilions round out the Asian offerings. Nearly 60 Korean exhibitors will showcase predominantly manmade, fancy, knitted, acetate woven, tricot, jacquard, faux leather and printed fabrics, as well as lace and embroidery, for ladieswear, while other members will feature fabrics for sportswear and outdoor wear. Those from Pakistan, meanwhile, will feature in the Beyond Denim hall and offer a wide range of denim products.  

In addition to Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics, four other textile fairs also take place at the National Exhibition and Convention Center: Yarn Expo Spring, Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles – Spring Edition, fashion garment fair CHIC and knitting fair PH Value.

Unter dem Dach „ Snowsports“ stellen im Januar die Hersteller das gesamte Produktspektrum des Wintersports vor: von Skifahren, Freeski und Snowboarden über Schneeschuhwandern, Langlaufen und Schlittenfahren. „Die Vielfalt des Wintersports in all seinen Facetten findet sich hier wieder. Es werden Synergien zu allen Wintersportarten geschaffen, ohne die Kernthemen Ski und Snowboard aus den Augen zu verlieren“, so Hefter.

Information, Inspiration und Innovationen finden Händler, Distributoren und Sportenthusiasten im Segment Trends und Innovation & Industry Services. Hier präsentieren Newcomer und Start-ups die Zukunft der Sportindustrie. Richtungsweisende Entwicklungen zeigen Weiterbildungs- und Innovationsplattformen wie das Retail Lab und die ISPO ACADEMY auf. Im Zentrum der geplanten Vorträge, Seminare und interaktiven Foren steht die digitale Transformation der Sportbranche. Unter dem Stichwort „Digital Readiness“ erfahren Vertreter von Industrie und Handel, wie sie ihr Business wettbewerbsfähig in die Zukunft führen.

Mehr Fläche für wachsende Segmente

Wachstum und Potenzial bei Absatzkanälen und Handelsflächen versprechen die Segmente Outdoor sowie Health & Fitness. 2018 gehen diese mit mehr Ausstellungsfläche an den Start. Die vier Outdoor-Hallen liefern Informationen über Trends und Neuheiten von Bergsteigen und Klettern bis hin zu Bouldern, Trailrunning, Camping und Wassersport. Unter Health & Fitness werden unter anderem die Trends bei Running, Urban Fitness, Body & Mind und Athleisure gezeigt.

Zukunftsthemen im Fokus

Welche neuartigen Konzepte das Thema Digitalisierung im Sport bereithält, können die Besucher auf der Messe live erleben: per App steuerbare Sportgeräte, wasch- und dehnbare Sensoren in Funktionsbekleidung, digitale Kundenservices oder Online-Lösungen für den Sportfachhandel – digitale Business-Modelle sowie smarte, vernetzte Sportprodukte entwickeln sich ständig weiter. Neue Technologien geben wichtige Impulse für die Sportartikelindustrie und treiben Innovationen voran. Mit "Cross Industry" hat ISPO ein Format geschaffen, das Business Professionals branchenübergreifend vernetzt, Know-how verbindet und so den Blick über den Tellerrand ermöglicht. Auf der ISPO MUNICH 2018 wird das Erfolgskonzept fortgesetzt.

Erstmals 2017 als Top-Thema beleuchtet, richtet die ISPO MUNICH 2018 ihr Augenmerk erneut auf „Frauen im Sport Business“. Dies umfasst Bereiche wie Frauen in Führungspositionen oder Gendermarketing – für Fachbesucherinnen, Ausstellerinnen, Journalistinnen und Influencerinnen ist die Messe der ideale Treffpunkt, um sich zu informieren, Inspiration zu finden und Kontakte zu treffen. Geplant sind wieder die ISPO Munich Women’s Lounge, geführte Touren „Experts4Women“ sowie Podiumsdiskussionen im Rahmen der ISPO ACADEMY.

EARTHCOLORS BY ARCHROMA RECEIVES OUTDOOR INDUSTRY AWARD 2017
