From the Sector

• Trust the vibes, energy doesn’t lie!

Advanced design and sustainability, innovation, aesthetics and quality, made of “ethical” laces and tights of very high quality standards and a careful look at fashion. Iluna Group, strengthened by this heritage, with a smart approach, carefully selected materials, know-how on processes and particular attention to the ecosystem, is a leader in its sector

With the FW 21-22 collection, Iluna Group focuses on design excellence aimed at perfection driven by this particular historical moment, in which preferring quality over quantity has become necessary: offering ever higher standards of quality is combined with the choice of reducing minimum waste in a way of working that becomes more thoughtful, studied, focused and less hectic.

The range of sustainable products expands by adding to the GRS certified Green Label, the BIOLINE, made with raw materials such as the precious ROICA™ V550 premium stretch fiber which belongs to ROICA Eco-Smart ™ family produced by Asahi Kasei able to combine elasticity and comfort and other benefits in terms of circular economy related to the health of materials, as demonstrated by the Gold Level Material Health Certificate by the Cradle to Cradle Product Innovation Institute, and by the world's first biodegradable polyamide 6.6 yarn AMNI SOUL ECO®, fibers that degrade completely in the environment under anaerobic conditions.

The exceptional natural dyes proposed are made with vegetable dyes extracted from various plants, with a color chart that now has 14 shades, all with solidity within the OEKO TEX® Standard 100 and all GOTS certified. No chemical product is used for the dyes, including the softening finish, for which an equally natural product is used.

All the products of the Iluna Group collections can be made in a recycled or organic variant.

Iluna Group participates to Milano Unica and digitally at all sector fairs, a new way of communicating that together with the use of social media - accompanied by the launch last year of the official website and e-commerce with all the collections and the ilunamasks.com site dedicated to the sale of the exclusive Iluna masks - it can be transformed from a necessity to a great resource and an opportunity to enhance a 360° sustainable attitude. Iluna, even before the pandemic, has always considered the sustainable aspect a priority in its work and now, in the light of this new landscape, the many years of experience gained benefits the company by pushing it to place itself more and more as a precursor of sustainable innovation.

The constant commitment to responsible solutions makes Iluna Group the only lace manufacturer to use - since 2017 - transformed stretch in the entire range of its elastic laces. Iluna Group excellence is based 100% on responsible innovation, guaranteed by the most important certifications. The creation of smart lace, strictly Made in Italy, is also Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certified. Today Iluna is a reference point for international markets and boasts products with OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification.

• Tecnica Group, der führende italienische Hersteller von Sportbekleidung, hat Kubix Link von Lectra implementiert.
• Die cloudbasierte Lösung mit integrierten PLM-, PIM- und DAM-Funktionen dient als Anker für alle verschiedenen IT-Systeme und Datentypen der Gruppe.

Die Tecnica Group verfügt mit über 1.500 Mitarbeitern über eine vertikal integrierte Lieferkette, betreibt 11.500 Geschäfte und beliefert 3.000 Einzelhändler in über 70 Ländern. Der Hersteller von Schuhen und Sportbekleidung war in einem starken Wachstum begriffen und führte bereits sechs internationale Marken: Moon Boot, Blizzard, Nordica, Rollerblade, Lowa und Tecnica. Mit dem Zukauf weiterer Unternehmen übernahm die Tecnica Group auch deren IT-Systeme, die auf unterschiedlichen Datentypen und Genehmigungsprozessen basierten.

In einem IT-Projekt galt es, die Systeme aller Tochtergesellschaften und Produktionswerke zu vereinheitlichen. Damit alle Mitarbeiter auf dem gleichen Stand sind und die gleiche technische Sprache sprechen, musste jedes Glied der Wertschöpfungskette in Echtzeit die gleichen Produktdaten aktualisieren und teilen können.

„Mit Kubix Link können wir die Produktinformationen der gesamten Supply Chain zentral erfassen, allen Beteiligten der Wertschöpfungskette zugänglich machen und sie mit Kunden per E-Commerce, Web- und Marketplace-Schnittstellen weltweit austauschen“, sagt Cristiano Simonetto, CIO der Tecnica Group.

Kunden kaufen dank genauen Produktinformationen weltweit on- wie offline

Übergeordnetes Ziel der Tecnica Group war es, mehr technikaffine Kunden zu gewinnen und dadurch den Marktanteil zu vergrößern. Hierfür mussten zwei Voraussetzungen erfüllt werden: erstens, die beste Customer Experience für den Omnichannel-Einzelhandel, bei der Kunden an jedem Ort der Welt die aktuellsten Produktinformationen bekommen, und zweitens, eine schnellere Markteinführung durch bessere Teamarbeit und eine höhere Produktivität auf der Grundlage genauer Daten.

„Wir müssen unsere Kunden zur richtigen Kaufentscheidung leiten, indem wir ihnen genaue Produktinformationen über die geeigneten Kanäle liefern. Sobald sie das Gefühl haben, den Artikel mit der perfekten Größe, Passform und Materialqualität für ihre Sportaktivität gefunden zu haben, haben wir sie für uns gewonnen“, sagt Simonetto.

Mit der Cloud-Plattform Kubix Link vereinheitlichte Tecnica sein Produktinformationssystem zu einer einzigen, zuverlässigen Informationsquelle für sechs verschiedene Marken und über zwanzig Produktionsanlagen. Da die Lösung speziell für die Modebranche entwickelt wurde, können alle Glieder der Wertschöpfungskette – vom Entwurf bis zum Verkauf – Daten eingeben, auch in ältere Systeme, die automatisch mit der Plattform verknüpft sind. Die Mitarbeiter von Tecnica vermarkten nun ihre Produkte schneller mit genaueren Produktdaten an Tausende Einzelhändler weltweit und berücksichtigen dabei die Anforderungen jeder E-Commerce-Website und Marktplattform hinsichtlich Sprache, Format und Maßeinheit.

„IT-Implementierung der reinste Spaziergang“

Besonders beeindruckt zeigte sich das Unternehmen von der Konfigurierbarkeit und Flexibilität der Lösung. Kubix Link basiert auf den Prinzipien von Industrie 4.0 und wird über Suchmaschinen und eine von sozialen Medien inspirierte Benutzeroberfläche bedient, die sich den individuellen Bedürfnissen der Nutzer anpassen lässt.

„Als Leiter der IT-Abteilung stehe ich häufig vor der Herausforderung, unsere Mitarbeiter von der Nutzung neuer IT-Systeme zu überzeugen. Mit Kubix Link hingegen war die Eingewöhnungsphase der reinste Spaziergang, weil das System so benutzerfreundlich ist. Die Mitarbeiter können über die Plattform auch in Echtzeit miteinander kommunizieren wie in sozialen Medien. Das System unterscheidet sich nicht allzu sehr von den Anwendungen, die wir auch privat häufig nutzen“, betont Simonetto.

Die cloudbasierte Plattform senkt mit genaueren Daten auch die Anzahl von Retouren, da die Fehlerquote bei der Online-Veröffentlichung von Produktinformationen geringer ist. Das verschafft der Tecnica Group auf dem Markt für Funktionskleidung, in dem es auf Präzision ankommt, einen wichtigen Wettbewerbsvorteil: „Sportbekleidung unterscheidet sich von jedem anderen Sektor in der Modebranche. Hersteller von T-Shirts müssen sich keine Gedanken über das Risiko für den Kunden machen. Unsere Kunden fahren jedoch möglicherweise mit 140 km/h auf Skiern einen Abhang hinunter und müssen sich daher auf die Qualität unserer Produkte verlassen können“, erklärt Simonetto.

Royal DSM, a global science-based company in Nutrition, Health and Sustainable Living, today announces that Dyneema® is driving the performance of Team Sunweb’s protective cycling jerseys in the 2020 Tour de France. Together with its partners, Team Sunweb and Craft Sportswear, DSM has helped to deliver a jersey that, when combined with a protective baselayer, offers cyclists effective abrasion protection at speeds up to 60km/h, while also reducing the severity of open wounds at even higher speeds. In this way, DSM underlines its commitment to protect people and the environment they live in.

Professional cycling places its participants in considerable danger; in recent years, the Tour de France has averaged 1.5 crashes per stage, while crashes in one-day classics are even more frequent. Cycling jerseys can support riders by enabling protection for a large portion of the body, while allowing for moisture transport to the surface and offering low thermal resistance. However, cycling jerseys made with conventional materials offer limited protective performance.

To address these needs and enable a safer riding experience, DSM has teamed up with Craft Sportswear and Team Sunweb to develop a cycling jersey that offers much-needed increases in abrasion resistance without compromising the comfort or low weight that cyclists demand. The new jersey is the latest protective cycling apparel solution, following the launch of the protective bib shorts (2015) and the protective baselayer (2019). The jersey will be worn for the first time by Team Sunweb in this year’s Tour de France. When combined with the protective baselayer, the new jersey offers complete protection against abrasions up to 60km/h, a speed below which professional cyclists spend 95% of race time in a typical stage.

Dyneema® has been used to protect workers in high-stake industries for more than 30 years – and the expansion into fabrics means both professional and recreational cyclists can enjoy the intrinsic performance capabilities of Dyneema® in their protective garments without sacrificing wearer comfort.

“Being 15 times stronger than steel on a weight for weight basis, Dyneema® fiber offers an excellent solution to increasing the abrasion resistance of a fabric, reducing the severity of road rash in case of a crash, without compromising the rider weight or comfort,” states Piet Rooijakkers, Head of R&D Team Sunweb “What’s more, the new jersey can form part of a modular protection solution, where riders can easily take off or put on layers according to race and weather conditions. In this way, the new jersey will support our riders significantly in the Tour de France and beyond.”

“The new cycling jersey with Dyneema® will make a real difference to cyclists facing the dangers of professional competition, and help ensure the health of both people and the environment,” states Wilfrid Gambade, President DSM Protective Materials. “The jersey is physical proof of the great achievements collaboration with expert partners can deliver. Moving forward, we will work with Craft and Team Sunweb to integrate bio-based Dyneema® fibers into protective cycling jerseys – contributing even further to a safe and healthy world!”

In line with its commitment to protect people and the environment they live in, DSM introduced the world’s first-ever bio-based HMPE fiber in May 2020. Bio-based Dyneema® fiber offers the same exact performance as conventional Dyneema® with a carbon footprint that is 90% lower than generic HMPE. The continued partnership between DSM, Craft and Team Sunweb will not only provide innovative, lightweight solutions for cyclists, but also environmentally sustainable alternatives that contribute to a circular economy.

With immediate effect, the first fabric mask with the official “TESTEX Community Mask” test label is available from the two Swiss textile firms, Schoeller Textil AG and Forster Rohner AG. Since May, the companies have been able to offer their masks with official EMPA recommendation. The sustainable and economical quality products consist primarily of recycled performance fabric which can be recycled once again at the end of its service life.

Swiss cooperation
With the product from the two companies based in the east of Switzerland, Schoeller Textil AG and Forster Rohner AG, the Swiss market now boasts the first textile mask featuring the label “TESTEX Community Mask”. Together with the EMPA, TESTEX has developed a testing procedure which analyses textile masks with regard to their filter function, spray resistance, comfort of wear, reusability and additionally skin-friendliness of the textiles. By now, numerous Swiss and international consumers, as well as the employees of major companies (e.g. transport companies) have satisfied themselves of the suitability of the Swiss Community Masks for everyday use.

Recyclable fabric made with 60 % recycled fibres
The high-quality fabric components in the mask were developed by the innovative Rheintal-based company Schoeller Textil AG. The two-layer polyester fabric is hydrophilic (having an affinity to water) on the outside and hydrophobic (water-repelling) on the outside and furthermore features an antibacterial finish. Thanks to the cotton-like feel, the fabric offers pleasant wearing comfort. The sustainable fabric consists of 60 % recycled fibres. Within the framework of the wear2wear recycling cooperation (www.wear2wear.org), the masks can be recycled once again when they reach the end of their life cycle.

The reusable mask is made up by Forster Rohner AG in St. Gallen and in its European subsidiaries. It impresses with optimum fit and tested skin tolerance. All components of
the mask comply with the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100. The testing process screens for numerous controlled and non-controlled substances. Masks with the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 label are safe to wear. Forster Rohner also added a fashion component to the technicallyinnovative mask. The subsidiary, Jakob Schlaepfer AG, created a special print for the mask of the kind otherwise only developed for famous couture and prêt-à-porter fashion labels around the world. In addition to white and plain-coloured masks, a limited edition of available print designs emerges, or specific colours or even individual print designs are created for major customers.

• The quality of Sappi’s Algro Design Advanced solid bleached board makes the difference for Wolford

The unique combination of physical and optical features combined within the Algro Design range of products, convinced the textile manufacturer, Wolford, to use the range to package its innovative face mask. When creating the packaging solution for its ‘Care Mask’ the company chose to combine the premium 350 gsm Algro Design Advanced solid bleached board with extremely challenging ink covering and a number of finishing options. The end result is a packaging solution that is as elegant as it is creative and as a result, perfectly complements the product inside.

• Premium packaging for premium products
• Perfect for complex graphic applications
• Unique service from the innovation leader Sappi

Wolford, founded in Bregenz, Austria, in 1950, is the global market leader in skinwear ‘made in Europe’. Since its establishment, the company has come up with numerous product innovations and is always at the cutting edge. Even before the coronavirus pandemic hit Europe, product developers were considering the idea of launching their own face mask protection, having witnessed the effects of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 in Asia. Thanks to an outstanding, highly efficient development division, a new product, ‘Care Mask’, was quickly brought to market.

It meets the high-quality standards of Wolford and consists of a premium, soft, breathable material that ensures high wearing comfort. Wolford is particularly proud that such a high-quality product could be developed in just a few weeks, despite reduced working hours and staff working from home. It generally takes some time to progress from development to product maturity. In this case however, everything was ready for market launch within two weeks.

Top quality meets top quality

Alongside the product, Wolford developed an appropriate packaging solution for their high-quality product, in collaboration with their in-house graphics department. To enable the ‘Care Mask’ to be quickly launched, a suitable material needed to be found, which could meet Wolford’s high standards in terms of quality, appearance and feel.
 
Wolford’s long-term partner, Sappi Europe had the perfect solution right away with its 350 g/m2 Algro Design Advanced solid bleached board. Thanks to its double-coated top and lightly coated back, the material from the innovation leader is a perfect choice for premium packaging.

The high brightness and silky, soft touch of the paperboard gives the packaging a premium, exclusive look and feel. The colour brilliance of Algro Design Advanced and the continuous, precise reproduction of complex print motifs were exactly what Wolford was looking for and met the high standards of the brand. Thanks to its additional outstanding finishing and processing properties, further processing with grooves, hot-foil embossing, paint finishes and adhesives was also easily achievable, which made it perfect for Wolford’s needs.

Service comes first at Sappi

Product capability alone was not enough for this venture however. To allow Wolford to achieve their goal of two weeks from inception to market ready, they also required a highly responsive service level from their trusted partner and Sappi responded at every level.  From selecting the right quality and size to the precise delivery of the paperboard to the printers, all in the space of five days, Sappi was flexible and immediately ready to respond. Thanks in no small part to the proactive support provided by all contributors to the creative process, the ‘Care Mask’ was launched at the end of March 2020 and was a resounding success. 5,000 masks were sold out within an hour and were sent on their way to the customers in their exclusive packaging.

Archroma, a global leader in color and specialty chemicals towards sustainable solutions, has joined hands with Liberty Textile Mill Limited (Liberty), a leading producer in healthcare textiles to produce high quality personal protective equipment (PPE).

Liberty will be benefitting from Archroma’s specialty solutions for hygiene protection, and well-established technical expertise in the area of medical textiles. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the PPEs manufactured by Liberty are aimed at easing the current shortage of PPEs for medical professionals in Pakistan.

Liberty carries over two decades of experience in medical textiles and exporting them all over the world. Its partnering with Archroma is a major step forward towards creating enhanced protection in the current crisis. With its advanced scientific knowledge and technical expertise, Archroma provides a complete set of specialty chemicals required to produce PPEs, in particular in the area of antimicrobial and barrier coatings. The project will assist in enhancing medical standards in hospitals, isolation centers and intensive care units, in Pakistan and, very soon, worldwide.

“By continuously challenging the status quo, we at Archroma are able to support our customers operating in or entering the area of medical textiles, with a holistic and expert approach to hygiene protection. With our collaboration with Liberty, we are so proud to be able to bring state-of-the art protection to health professionals and the general public,” comments Mujtaba Rahim, CEO of Archroma Pakistan.

“Liberty has a presence of more than five decades with high achieving accolades. Our processing units are fully equipped with latest equipment complying with international standards. We take this new partnership with Archroma as a start of building a strong relationship in the area of medical textiles. The COVID-19 pandemic has given a wake-up call to work extensively towards enhancing healthcare facilities. We are looking forward to new innovations in producing top-class PPEs,” adds Taimoor Mukaty, Director of Liberty Textile Mills Limited.

Shutdown. Einschränkungen. Chaos. Stillstand. Auf einmal ändert sich alles. Weltweit. Corona zwingt die gesamte Weltbevölkerung eine neue Perspektive einzunehmen. Auf einmal können persönliche Beziehungen, Handelsbeziehungen, Kundenkontakte nur digital fortgeführt werden, um Sicherheit zu bieten. Homeoffice wird Alltag. Die Kaufkraft der Endverbraucher sinkt. Ein reflektiertes Bewusstsein für Konsum wächst. Plötzlich müssen gewohnte Mechanismen ganz neu gedacht werden. Gleiches gilt für die Mode, somit für die gesamte Textilindustrie. Innehalten, neu denken, analysieren, abstrahieren, ungewohnte Terrains betreten.

Für die Union Knopf Menswear GmbH bedeutet dies, multiple Perspektiven einnehmen und Kunden dort treffen, wo sie sind – sei es im Büro, Homeoffice, auf Messen oder auf der anderen Seite der Welt. Dementsprechend hat die Union Knopf Menswear GmbH zur neuen Order- Saison 21/22 einen virtuellen Meetingraum entwickelt, in dem die neue Kollektion wie im Augengespräch besprochen und direkt gemustert werden kann. Die virtuelle Kollektionspräsentation ermöglicht eine gewohnt persönliche Kommunikation, Inspiration und Empathie dem Kunden gegenüber. Die realistische und plastisch wirkende Darstellung der Artikel im direkten Zusammenhang zum textilen Untergrund und Thema überwindet das fehlende haptische Moment.

Gleichzeitig bedeutet Umdenken, neue Sichtweisen auf die Mode selbst schaffen und unter Berücksichtigung der andauernden Veränderungen kritisch, innovativ und zukunftsweisend zu reflektieren.

Ein einschlägiges Beispiel dafür ist die formale Klassik. In Zeiten von Homeoffice und online Meetings wirkt Businesswear obsolet. Somit stellt sich die Frage nach ihrer künftigen Berechtigung. Wie wird sich Klassik präsentieren müssen, um als universaler Style an Begehren zu gewinnen und als modern zu gelten?

In der neuen Union Knopf Menswear Kollektion zum HW 21/22 liegt der Schwerpunkt folglich auf multiplen Sichtweisen der Klassik, die unter Berücksichtigung akzentuierender und funktionaler Bekleidungsaccessoires eine Neudefinition mitgestalten.

In der neuen Crossover-Kollektion der Union Knopf Menswear zum HW 21/22 liegt der Schwerpunkt auf modischen Themen, die sich über Zeitgeist definieren und weniger über kurzlebige Trends. Wie in letzter Saison basiert auch diesmal die Crossover-Kollektion überwiegend auf Knopfdesigns aus der Menswear, die sich als Unisex-Artikel herauskristallisiert haben. In dieser Kollektion wird ebenfalls viel Wert auf die Optionsvielfalt moderner Klassiker gelegt. Zusätzlich wird diese feminine Kollektion um schmückende Highlights ergänzt, die weitaus mehr sind als funktionale Bekleidungsaccessoires.

Gelungene Premiere

Mit Neonyt on Air ist die Messe Frankfurt angesichts Corona ins kalte Wasser gesprungen und hat in den vergangen fünf Tagen die Sustainable Fashion-Community in Online-Talks zusammengebracht.

Ob Digitalisierung, Diversity, Lifestyle oder die Frankfurt Fashion Week – bei Neonyt on Air gab der Veranstalter, die Messe Frankfurt, vom 13. bis 17. Juli 2020 gemeinsam mit zahlreichen Brands und Partnern Einblick in Themen, die die Sustainable Fashion-Branche aktuell bewegen.

„Neonyt on Air hat gezeigt: Der Bedarf an Austausch in der Fashion-Branche und die Motivation, gemeinsam einen Wandel einzuleiten, sind enorm. Wir freuen uns bereits jetzt auf die nächste physische Ausgabe der Neonyt. Denn deutlich wurde auch: Mode lebt von Persönlichkeiten, von Inszenierung und Inspiration. Da können digitale Formate begleiten, aber keinen vollen Ersatz bieten“, sagt Thimo Schwenzfeier, Show Director der Neonyt bei der Messe Frankfurt.
