DUBAI — February 12, 2018 — EDANA, the global association serving the nonwovens and related industries, last week welcomed some 200 delegates from more than 100 companies to Dubai for the fourth edition of the region’s premier conference for the nonwovens industry.

The symposium and exhibition featured expert analysis on market outlook, product innovation, demographic trends and sustainability initiatives over the two-day event, with dedicated sessions on geotextiles, raw material trends and nonwovens in the health sector.

Feedback from participants throughout the event emphasised satisfaction with the support provided to the industry and the many opportunities to meet with peers. “This symposium has recognized the importance of the MENA region for the nonwovens industry and allowed my team and me to meet many of our customers in a friendly, informative and efficient way. The diverse range of presentations and delegates has helped further cement the region as a growth generator for the industry” said Haitham Alhudhaif, President of Saudi German Co. for Nonwoven Products.

Mahdy Katbe, CEO, Unicharm Gulf Hygienic Industries, echoed these sentiments: “EDANA’s 4th MENA Symposium reaffirms their commitment to supporting multiple industries and areas. For the MENA region, one of the world’s most promising, EDANA’s resources are proving to be solid support pillars for the industry itself, the regulatory framework and end users.”

Other delegates highlighted the unique mix of insight and industry updates provided by such a gathering “all the nonwoven symposia I have joined over the years have always surpassed my expectations and Dubai is no exception. Listening to ideas and challenges in unrelated application fields remains and inspiring source for fresh ideas” said Ludwig Busam, Director Global Material Development & Supply Baby Care at Procter & Gamble. Silke Brand-Kirsch, Executive Partner at Schlegel & Partners concurred, adding that “the symposium has been a useful source of both inspirational knowledge, and technical innovations from expert speakers”.

Supima Engages Oritain To Provide Fiber Origin Verification

TEMPE, Arizona — February 12, 2018 — Supima has partnered with Oritain Global Ltd., an international forensic science firm, to provide a testing platform to identify and verify the origin of SUPIMA® cotton.

In partnership with Supima, Oritain will utilize its scientific technology to measure the naturally occurring elements that exist within the cotton fiber based upon the geographical production area the cotton is grown in. The project will cover the entire American Pima cotton growing region and create a unique fingerprint for Supima cotton.

Grant Cochrane, Oritain CEO, said: “The unique fingerprint analysis identifies different levels of chemical attributes that are found in the product itself and enables the cotton to be verified against its claimed origin. This platform offers a solution to address the traceability challenges that have been faced by the global cotton industry in recent years.”

“Manufacturers, brand owners and retailers are increasingly focused on ensuring there is transparency within their supply chains,” Cochrane said. “A huge part of this is knowing – and trusting – where their product comes from. This is of particular importance as brands make claims associated with provenance and want to be reassured their product — in this case, Supima cotton — isn’t being contaminated by inferior products coming from undesirable sources.

“We are pleased to be able to demonstrate our relevance throughout the supply chain – not just for primary producers,” he said. “We know that the fashion industry is highly-motivated in the sustainability space and we are ideally positioned to help them ensure the integrity of their products as sustainability compliance is closely intertwined with origin.”

Supima CEO Marc Lewkowitz said: “The partnership with Oritain fulfils Supima’s decade long objective to find a simple and natural way to use the fiber to verify provenance. We were impressed that Oritain doesn’t need to apply any identifier or tracer during the manufacturing or processing phases, which makes it a very simple solution to deploy from an operational perspective. The Oritain methodology simply measures what is naturally inside the fiber.”

“American Pima cotton growers take great pride in their status of producing a rare and premium fiber often referred to as the ‘World’s Finest Cottons’, and Supima is proud to provide a means to ensure that the Supima brand and fiber reputation are protected,” says Lewkowitz.

TRSA Donates $80,000 Toward Hurricane Relief From Proceeds Of Cancelled Annual Conference

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — February 9, 2018 — TRSA, the global association for the linen, uniform and facility services industry, has donated approximately $80,000 to Anayat House, Children of Restaurant Employees (CORE) and ConPRmetidos: organizations assisting those impacted by hurricanes in Florida, Texas and Puerto Rico.

The donations are the result of TRSA’s 105th Annual Conference, which had been scheduled for last September in Miami, but was cancelled due to Hurricane Irma. While offering to refund all registration and sponsorship fees, TRSA asked members to donate all or a portion of those fees to support local charities.

“We’re very proud of the TRSA community, which was able to create some positive outcomes in an overwhelmingly tragic circumstance,” said Joseph Ricci, CEO of TRSA.

“The contribution from TRSA will directly assist low income families and the elderly who seek overnight accommodations during a medical crisis,” said Tressa Clarke, executive director of Anayat House, which provides affordable overnight accommodations for family members of patients at local Beaumont, Texas, hospitals and anyone traveling to Beaumont for medical care and outpatient treatment. “This contribution will help bridge the gap between the suggested donation of $20 and the actual cost of $90 per room.”

CORE, an organization that is part of the Florida Restaurant & Lodging Association, grants support to children of food and beverage service employees navigating life-altering circumstances. “CORE was incredibly grateful to receive the generous donation from TRSA,” said Lauren LaViola, executive director of CORE. “The donation to CORE will help to fulfill grants for qualifying children of food and beverage service employees navigating life-altering circumstances.”

“I feel truly inspired by TRSA’s continued commitment to the support of our industry’s community of families. It is an honor and a privilege to be part of such great association,” said Pablo Lucchesi, managing partner of Crown Linen, in whose name TRSA made the CORE contribution.

An additional contribution was made to ConPRmetidos, an organization that specializes in matching Puerto Rico’s diaspora — people who settle away from their ancestral homeland — with companies there to help them grow.

“We don’t have words to say thanks for all your generosity,” said Michael Shulevitz, President of Cadillac Uniform & Linen Supply in Puerto Rico. “Thank you for helping Puerto Rico to rise up again.”

The $80,000 donation follows an immediate TRSA charitable effort that took place just after the conference, when several hundred homeless residents were given welcome boxes that had been packaged for conference attendees at the time of the cancellation.

Frontier Spinning Mills Recognized As North Carolina’s Top Large Business Exporter

RALEIGH, N.C. — Governor Roy Cooper presented five North Carolina companies with 2017 Governor’s Export Awards during a ceremony today at the Executive Mansion. The awards recognize the companies’ dedication to growing their businesses through exporting, a practice which supports thousands of jobs across the state.

North Carolina’s export of goods and services supports more than 370,000 jobs in the state, according to the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C.

“Exporting our goods and services into the global marketplace plays an important role in growing jobs and our economy,” Governor Cooper said. “This year’s Export Awards honor companies whose products and ideas represent North Carolina’s strong business reputation around the world.”

The Governor’s Office developed the export award program in collaboration with the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina (EDPNC) and the North Carolina Department of Commerce. The state’s international trade development team is based at EDPNC.

Five companies were recognized for 2017, representing companies of various size and international experience:

  • Therafirm in Richmond County;
  • Blue Ridge Chair Works in Buncombe County;
  • Frontier Spinning Mills in Lee County;
  • Tri-Tech Forensics in Brunswick County; and
  • New Growth Designs in Pitt County.

Despite their differences, each of these companies have one thing in common — they each turned to the EDPNC’s international trade division for help in achieving their export goals. The EDPNC provides trade advice and support to companies at no charge, an offer which is particularly attractive for small businesses in North Carolina.

“Our international trade team is here to prepare new exporters through export education workshops, market research and market-entry strategies while also supporting more advanced exporters looking for new distributors at international trade shows,” said John Loyack, EDPNC vice president for Global Business Services. “Many North Carolina companies treat our team like trusted advisers.”

The team includes five North Carolina-based international trade managers — each of whom specializes in specific industry sectors — and representatives in North Carolina’s international trade offices located in Canada, Mexico, Europe, Japan, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, China. All told, the state’s trade team assisted 559 North Carolina companies in 2017, located in 80 counties across the state.

“The EDPNC provides vital resources to small businesses looking to expand into international markets that might not have the ability or know-how to do so on their own,” said Rich Cherry, sales logistics manager of New Growth Designs, a high-end artificial greenery manufacturer and winner of the Top New Exporter award.

“We received EDPNC’s assistance in September to present our products at the Dubai Hotel Show,” Cherry said. “In addition to financial assistance for our travel expenses, we benefitted from their export expertise and the business connections they arranged prior to our arrival. As a result, we are seeing new interest from this region where the demand for ‘Made in the USA’ goods is strong.”

The 2017 Governor’s Export Award Winners include:

  • New Growth Designs, Top New Exporter — Out of its home in Greenville, New Growth Designs manufactures artificial greenery and flower arrangements that are sought by today’s best-known designers and featured in some of the world’s finest luxury stores, museums, and hotels.
  • Therafirm, Top Rural Exporter — A division of Knit-Rite Inc., Hamlet-based Therafirm manufactures specialized compression hosiery for a variety of markets including the medical and sports industries. The company has been highly successful in dozens of foreign markets around the world.
  • Blue Ridge Chair Works, Top Small Business Exporter — Based in Asheville, Blue Ridge Chair Works manufactures portable outdoor furniture for campers, hotels, and other customers that value quality and comfort. The company’s growing foreign sales now account for a large share of its business.
  • Frontier Spinning Mills, Top Large Business Exporter — Frontier Spinning Mills in Sanford has become one of the world’s largest producers of spun yarns for the knitting and weaving industries. The veteran exporter and longstanding EDPNC client offers a diverse product line to customers worldwide. The company stays competitive by applying state-of-the-art automated technology and innovation to every phase of the yarn-manufacturing process.
  • Tri-Tech Forensics, Top Global Reach Exporter — Tri-Tech Forensics in Leland manufactures forensics products for law enforcement. From fingerprinting and evidence-collection systems to personal protection equipment, the company is an essential part of public safety in a wide range of countries. It exports to almost 50 countries.

Pantone Color Institute Releases Fashion Color Trend Report Fall/Winter 2018 
For New York Fashion Week

CARLSTADT, N.J. — February 7, 2018 — Pantone LLC, an X-Rite company, the global authority on color and provider of professional color standards for the design industries, today announced the Pantone® Fashion Color Trend Report Fall/Winter 2018 edition for New York Fashion Week. Published for the fashion industry by the Pantone Color Institute, a trend forecasting and color consultancy, the report features the top colors we can expect to see from fashion designers on the runway for this year’s fall/winter collections.

Specific seasonal colors that inspire fashion also inspire home décor and design. I thought you would be interested in seeing this report, and getting a first-hand look into the colors that will shape home décor palettes for the Fall/Winter 2018 season.

Combining classicism with colorful expression, the Pantone® Fashion Color Trend Report Fall/Winter 2018 features a bold palette of autumnal hues complemented by some more unexpected shades. Continuing to underscore the desire for color that transcends the seasons, the report for Fall/Winter 2018 highlights the top 10 colors for men’s and women’s fashion, as well as five new classics.

“The Fall/Winter 2018 palette continues to show designers expressing the need for individuality, ingenuity and creativity though fashion,” said Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute. “As designers and consumers alike continue to transition away from cyclical trends, and instead focus on self-expressive colors that evade antiquated seasonal structure, we are seeing very notable non-traditional choices, such as PANTONE 12-0740 Limelight and PANTONE 15-3520 Crocus Petal showing up in the fall/winter palette. Exploring nuances within color families and building off of them with new combinations and materials freshens and reinvents the color story.”

Mixing and combining unexpected colors can result in a signature style or look, yet, according to the Pantone Color Institute, many of these unique shades are similarly impactful standing alone.

“More so than in previous seasons, many of these hues are being used to make a very specific statement when used singularly,” said Eiseman. “However, adding an unexpected element allows for the artistry and originality that moves fashion forward.”

About the Fall/Winter 2018 NYFW Color Palette:

Autumnal hues that evoke the feeling of leaves on the forest floor, rich plumage and twilight reveal a modern fall palette of deep and rich tones with outbursts of colorful surprise.

PANTONE 19-1536 Red Pear — Deliciously deep red, whose luscious depth entices.

PANTONE 18-1549 Valiant Poppy — Brave and outgoing red shade effusive in its allure.

PANTONE 18-4048 Nebulas Blue — Reminiscent of twilight, a thoughtful, starry -eyed blue.

PANTONE 15-0850 Ceylon Yellow — Savory and spicy yellow adds an exotic touch.

PANTONE 18-0625 Martini Olive — Smooth, sophisticated and urbane green adds depth to the Fall/Winter 2018 palette.

PANTONE 16-1255 Russet Orange — This forest floor orange speaks to earthen warmth.

PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet — Inventive and imaginative Ultra Violet lights the way for what is yet to come.

PANTONE Crocus Petal 15-3520 — A cultivated and refined hue adds a light and airy spring-like feeling demand.

PANTONE 12-0740 Limelight — Animated and effervescent, a pungent yellow-green becomes the center of attention.

PANTONE 18-5025 Quetzal Green — A deep elegant blue-green hue  suggestive of rich plumage.

About the Fall/Winter 2018 Classic Color Palette:

There is no ‘typical’ anymore – but there remains a need for structure and foundation in everyday fashion. “We increased the number of core colors from four to five due to the ease in which they can be implemented and their ability to cross the seasons. These shades are more crucial than ever, serving as the critical building block as ‘trends’ stay relevant longer, and consumers look to add variety through new textures, fabrics and beautiful combinations,” said Eiseman.

PANTONE 19-4031 Sargasso Sea — Boundless and fathomless blue mooring the palette.

PANTONE 11-4801 Tofu — Creamy white staple.

PANTONE 14-1116 Almond Buff — Natural baby camel hue with understated appeal.

PANTONE 14-4107 Quiet Gray — Unobtrusive and timeless soft gray.

PANTONE 16-1438 Meerkat — A highly adaptable toasty burnished brown.

MIAMI, Florida — January 2018 — Small businesses, retailers, manufacturers and designers across the United States and Latin America will get a boost for the summer when the Apparel Textile Sourcing Miami (ATS-M) trade show expands to Miami in May.

A comprehensive trade show and conference, ATS-M will take place May 21-23, 2018, at the Mana Wynwood Convention Center in Miami. The event will bring to Florida hundreds of international apparel and textile manufacturers from China, India, Bangladesh, the United States, Turkey, Pakistan, Mexico and many other countries and territories from across Central and South America and all around the globe.

Moishe Mana, Miami-based billionaire developer and CEO of Mana Group said: “We are committed to making Miami the nexus for commerce between Asia, North America, and Latin America. We’re excited to have ATS Miami join this initiative as the fashion and apparel industry is one of our core verticals.”

The ATS brand has established itself internationally with Apparel Textile Sourcing Canada, held every August in Toronto. In 2017 the event grew by more than 50 percent in attendees and international exhibits. The same formula of success is the basis for ATS-Miami.

Next to the hundreds of manufacturers’ booths and exhibits, ATS-Miami will deliver 3-days-worth of an unprecedented platform of global connections in manufacturing and fashion.

Attendees will gain new insights and information to best navigate and profit in the international sourcing process

Featured focus on Manufacturer Transparency, Speed & Responsiveness + benefits of Near Sourcing Americas

“ATS-Miami provides a unique opportunity for apparel and textile importers and retailers to intersect and access the most current importing information from the top industry insiders.  Imagine the time and money saved for the local and Latin importers.  The producers are coming from Asia to Miami,” Prescott said, emphasizing that China alone exports $42 billion in apparel a year to the US and $11 billion a year to Latin America.

Clay Hickson, VP Strategy & Business Development with Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production (WRAP) said, “The team at Apparel Textile Sourcing puts on great events and we’re excited to partner with them again in Miami.  We have partnered with ATS since the launch of the first event in Toronto, which has quickly grown to be an important apparel and fashion industry event in North America.”

ATS-M will feature three days-worth of seminars, panels and runway shows featuring acclaimed industry and government experts, covering topics from trade agreements to best practices with an eye on the changing Latin American market, as well as tips on how to choose overseas producers, plus new approaches on succeeding in the U.S. market.

“The ATS-Miami design pods and fashion show will include International apparel producers, Latin American artisans, Made-in-Americas manufacturers and active design students,” said Apparel Textile Sourcing Director John Banker.  “The runway at ATSM will knock the socks off of summer fashion!”

ATS-M will also feature:

  • A “Made in USA” Pavilion, showcasing US-based manufacturers who source apparel and textiles from abroad for their finished goods, as well as US designers who have their designs produced into finished products overseas.
  • The Americas Pavilion featuring products from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Ecuador, Nicaragua, El Salvador, and more.
  • A Summer 2018 Apparel and Textile Trends display, providing a first-hand look at the colors, patterns and textures that will be all the rage for the summer nights in Miami.

Lee® Jeans Body Optix x Cushnie et Ochs Announce 2018 Partnership

MERRIAM, Kan. — February 9,, 2018 — As New York Fashion Week commences, iconic American apparel brand Lee® Jeans is pleased to announce its partnership with the premier design team of Cushnie et Ochs. The two brands will partner in 2018 to create a special collection for the Lee Body Optix line, which harnesses vision science and exclusive patent-pending technology to create denim that visually flatters the female body.

The upcoming partnership will be celebrated at the Cushnie et Ochs 10th Anniversary Runway Show on Friday, February 9th, and the products of the collaboration will be presented later this year.

“We are thrilled to partner with Lee for our 10th anniversary year,” said Carly Cushnie, designer and co-founder of Cushnie et Ochs. “Cushnie et Ochs is designed by women, for women, and the Lee Body Optix collection is made specifically to celebrate the female form. It is a natural fit.”

The partnership is grounded by Lee and Cushnie et Ochs’ shared vision of empowering women with perfectly fitting clothes that make her feel strong and confident. “Carly and I focus on combining femininity and sensuality with form,” said Michelle Ochs, designer and co-founder of Cushnie et Ochs. “We are excited to pair our style sensibility with the unique way that Lee Body Optix enhances a woman’s natural shape.”

Lee Body Optix unlocks the principles of vision science: what the eye sees and doesn’t see. Each denim piece is precisely shaded and contoured using patterns created by nano laser technology, and constructed with strategic seams and pocket placement. The result is a clothing line that delivers 360° body enhancement.

“What contouring makeup does for the face, Lee Body Optix does for a woman’s body,” said Kim Yates, vice president of marketing, Lee Jeans. “With Cushnie et Ochs’ emphasis on raw feminine power and silhouette, they are an ideal partner to integrate a new fashion element into this line. We look forward to revealing the results of the collaboration.”

“Lee Body Optix resulted from the synergies between cognitive science, cutting-edge imaging technologies and advance material research. Combining top fashion designers and cognitive scientists together is a new approach to apparel, and a dynamic fresh direction for the industry,” said Steve Zades, vice president of global transformational innovation, VF Corporation.

First successfully launched in Asia and Europe, Lee Body Optix will expand to the United States this summer. Cushnie et Ochs will unveil their pieces this fall.
