Oiselle & Polartec Announce Birdstrike Film In Partnership With REI

SEATTLE — June 8, 2017 — Polartec, the premium provider of innovative textile solutions, and Oiselle, the women’s athletic apparel company, announce the release of Birdstrike, a short film about the first female team to win The Speed Project. The Speed Project is an unsanctioned, unsupported, 340-mile ultra relay from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. Going into its third year, no all-female team had ever taken on the course. Oiselle and Polartec worked together to field a team wearing Polartec® Delta™ cooling fabric and show the world that women were up for the challenge of racing the course in extreme temperatures.

The two companies formed an all-female team named Birdstrike. The team included six racers and six crew members, comprised of a mix of amateurs and professional Oiselle runners such as Lauren Fleshman and Devon Yanko. After Oiselle announced the team, all-female squads were also fielded by Nike and Strava. With over 20 teams racing the course, a route that took the racers through Death Valley during peak temperatures, success at the 2017 Speed Project required every competitive advantage, including Oiselle’s apparel made with Polartec Delta, a special fiber and yarn construction engineered to enhance the body’s natural evaporative cooling process.

“Oiselle’s pursuit of creating quality products for female runners sets them apart in a crowded market and has led to exciting collaborative development work with Polartec,” says Polartec CEO Gary Smith. “They continuously ask for our best when designing for the athletes they serve, and as such they’ve become a valued customer.”

“We’ve always been interested in women charting new territory,” says Oiselle Founder & CEO Sally Bergesen. “The Speed Project was an opportunity to show women’s skills and ability, both individually and as a team, on a new stage. Polartec’s support and technology were key in our participation in this race. That course demanded everything of our athletes, and the apparel, like the women, stood up to the challenge.”

Team Birdstrike’s experience is documented in the short film, which will debut at REI as a part of their Force Of Nature campaign. The film will be exclusively screened at REI Flagship stores prior to a digital release on June 23, first at REI Washington on Wednesday, June 14, followed by a screening at REI Seattle on Thursday, June 22. The evenings will include a never-before-seen look at the short film, a Q&A panel with the team, crew and Polartec fabric specialists, as well as a special reveal of what’s next for the team.
The full film will be released digitally on Friday, June 23. A full film screener link is available upon request.

TeXtreme® Sets New Standard For Visual Spread Tow Fabrics

BORÅS, Sweden — June 7, 2017 — Oxeon AB has set a new standard for Visual Spread Tow carbon fiber fabrics, PDESP21.

“We always work to push our materials and technologies to meet even higher expectations from our customers,” said Andreas Martsman, vice president, Marketing & Sales, Oxeon, maker of TeXtreme®. I am very proud to see our dedication to development work and continuous improvements result in a new standard for visual spread tow fabrics. By using our proprietary spreading and weaving technologies we are able to control splits, gaps, distortion etc to meet this extreme visual level for these types of materials.”

TeXtreme’s signature square pattern makes it stand out from the crowd and this new standard takes it to the next level of perfection to meet also the most challenging visual demands. Connecting it with the outstanding references and current users, the TeXtreme Technology yields high-quality, high-performance, lightweight carbon fiber products that last.

Andreas continues,” We already see the value of offering these perfect looking versions of TeXtreme for applications where the visibility is most important. For example, a luxury automotive brand from England, approved it to a high enough visual standard to be willing to use it in places where drivers and passengers see it all the time, like dashboards and the door linings in their new car. For us this is an ultimate proof of our high quality standards, the pride our people takes in delivering perfection and that we are still the market leader in spread tow fabrics.”

TeXtreme Technology is based on using thin flat tapes instead of round yarns, a patented process that provides unique possibilities for weight savings and performance improvements compared to other carbon fiber materials. In general, TeXtreme can reduce weight by 20 to 30-percent compared to conventional carbon fiber materials, with maintained or increased levels of stiffness and/or strength. Weigh saving or performance increase is not the focus for this new visual version of TeXtreme but these benefits comes with any version of TeXtreme. Also, a perfect looking material is a proof of process control and precision which is crucial to meet tight tolerances and challenging goals in for example the aerospace industry.

Novel TeXtreme materials are being used by several major brands in the sporting goods market and in various industrial and advanced aero applications.

Certification Inspection Practices Attain High Accountability Standard

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — June 7, 2017 — TRSA has upgraded its inspection management protocol for Clean Green and Hygienically Clean certifications, appointing an inspection program administrator and auditor to train and administer the inspection process and inspector training.

This enhances TRSA’s well-established reputation for expertise, consistency and impartiality for all applicant laundry companies and plants when inspectors verify their adherence to best management practices (BMPs). It also adds a highly expert third party to oversee the inspection program. It aligns with ISO quality management system (QMS) standards for assessing laundry applicants’ quality assurance practices and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) plans.

Laundry Design Group, LLC, Las Vegas, Nevada was selected as inspection program administrator after considering several firms, acknowledged for excellence in evaluating businesses’ QA guideline compliance. Bob Corfield, the firm’s CEO, has over 30 years’ industry experience, five performing inspections for Clean Green and Hygienically Clean. Corfield is a certified ISO QMS Lead Auditor with a HACCP designation.

As chief inspector and program administrator, Corfield identifies, administers and trains the independent inspector team. Each inspector enters a comprehensive training program including certification standards review, evidence collection procedures, interview protocol, ATP (work surface) testing, technology use, HACCP compliance and sample collection procedures. Training also focuses on educating inspectors regarding acceptable approaches launderers can take to implement BMPs.  Each inspector must agree to a code of ethics including confidentiality and conflict of interest statements.

The inspection program is deployed on an iPad application that all inspectors must use for note-taking, evidence collection, and inspection scoring. This creates consistency from inspection to inspection and inspector to inspector. Inspectors’ reports are disseminated within hours of each inspection for lead audit review and discussion if required.

Following initial training, each inspector is subject to a competency review by a third party ISO certified lead auditor (Enveratek, Calgary, Alberta, Canada).  Enveratek confirms the inspector’s knowledge of standards and procedures in alignment with ISO QMS audit protocols and suggests corrective training if needed.

The inspection program is reviewed twice per year to assure protocol and program compliance. These reviews are presented to TRSA leaders to strengthen the competency of the inspectors and the inspection program.

Tighter inspection management protocols reflect the certifications’ commitment to continuous improvement. Advisory boards and user groups examine development of new laundry and textile technologies to standards for sustainability (Clean Green) and laundered product cleanliness (Hygienically Clean).

“These programs’ leaders frequently participate in a variety of linen, uniform and facility services professional development activities contributing to TRSA’s 100+ years of facilitating information-sharing and collaboration to improve industry BMPs,” noted TRSA President and CEO Joseph Ricci. “Their commitment to the Clean Green and Hygienically Clean certification programs have helped make these programs the fastest growing, most internationally recognized standards for validating processes and quantifying results for sustainability and cleanliness.”

The New Lectra Fashion PLM Gears Fashion Companies Up For The Fourth Industrial Revolution

PARIS — June 7, 2017 — Lectra is pleased to announce the launch of Lectra Fashion PLM 4.0, the first-ever product lifecycle management solution designed to help fashion and apparel companies navigate the fourth industrial revolution and thrive in the digital era of fashion.

With digitalization transforming the way consumers shop, today’s fashion companies are playing a never-ending game of catch-up, as they compete for the attention of a generation of connected, fickle-minded millennials who want it all: personalization, sustainability, quality and speed, accessible at all times, across multiple channels, and at the lowest price. Industry 4.0 is not only revolutionizing how manufacturers operate, but also how brands and retailers need to function, if they want to be fast and agile enough to meet the needs of this demanding new consumer. The stakes are high and how effectively companies harness technology to put the consumer at the heart of their process will be the deciding factor in who comes out ahead and who gets left behind.

Lectra Fashion PLM 4.0 has undergone a drastic reboot to give fashion and apparel companies the speed and agility they need to tackle the challenges of Industry 4.0 head on. Lectra Fashion PLM 4.0, with the widest functional scope on the market, acts as an intelligent nerve center to the digital supply chain, from planning through design to production. This ensures a consistent flow of error-free data between processes, technologies and people. The system connects CAD, industry-standard software such as Adobe Illustrator, company IT systems (such as ERP) and external suppliers, so that actors across the supply chain can work on, save and share information on the platform, ensuring data integrity.

The solution also draws on best practices, fashion-business intelligence and real-world scenarios to automate administrative and repetitive tasks, with templates, standard libraries and shortcuts that allows more time for value-added activities. The final result is a fast, connected digital supply chain that helps fashion companies jump on trends quickly and deliver products that fulfill their customer’s expectations.

This new incarnation of Lectra Fashion PLM is designed to work out of the box and can be scaled to accommodate the different needs of small to large businesses, brands, retailers and manufacturers. Companies can start small by implementing the standard offer, then add on as they go, choosing from up to ten different modules, such as design integration, product details, sourcing, sampling and costing.

The solution is available on a monthly subscription or perpetual license basis. Special attention has been paid to make this new product user-friendly, with learning tools that enable fast onboarding. The new Lectra Easy Tool allows IT teams to configure the platform to suit the needs of its users and the new mobile app, Lectra Collection Advanced, provides more ways to share information. The fuss-free implementation process means companies can get the platform up and running quickly with little disruption to business, and quickly start seeing a return on their investment.

The only fashion-dedicated PLM solution on the market that covers the entire value chain, Lectra Fashion PLM 4.0 is Lectra’s first software product release since it announced its 4.0 strategy, which aims to help fashion companies succeed in this brave new digital world. The culmination of Lectra’s 40-plus years of experience in the fashion industry, the platform gives companies a competitive edge by giving them a smart, user-friendly solution that allows them to remain agile and connected, facilitating their transition towards Industry 4.0.

“As our customers take their first steps toward the world of Industry 4.0, we want to be right there beside them to help them succeed. Just like today’s fashion companies, we are evolving to make our offer more customer-centric than ever before. We are extremely proud of this powerful new PLM platform, and are convinced that it will help our customers flourish in this digital age of fashion,” says Céline Choussy Bedouet, chief marketing and communications officer, Lectra.

French Textile Machinery Collaborative Developments

COURBEVOIE, France — June 6, 2017 — UCMTF invited the press during Techtextil in Frankfurt to present French Textile Machinery Manufacturers’ partnerships with their customers to identify the textile producers’ technological needs to design and develop innovative textile products, how the best solutions could be found, and the necessary tests of both the machines and the textile new products.

“Innovation comes both from new technologies and the market’s demands” stated Evelyne Cholet, UCMTF Secretary General. She added “the French textile machinery manufacturers are quite strong in long fibre spinning, yarn twisting and control, heat setting, carpet systems, nonwovens, dyeing and finishing, air and recycling processes. We are proud of our strategy to offer customized solutions, and not only off the shelves machinery, to focus R&D on our customers’ requirements, to offer cost effective, reliable, and environment friendly machines.” Then she gave the floor to 4 association’s members and to a guest speaker, Pascal Denizart, CEO of the European Centre of Innovative Textiles, the CETI based in Lille (Northern France).

N. SCHLUMBERGER

N. Schlumberger is the world leader in spinning lines for processing long staple fibres (in various blends from any high performance fibres, whether natural or man-made). It proposes 3 processes to produce long staple top of technical fibres: the carding, stretch breaking and crush cutting.

Patrick Strehle, sales director of N. Schlumberger, presented several long-term partnerships with company customers.

First, with a Taiwanese customer producing clothes, sleeves, ropes and tapes from metal fibers. The objective was to produce sliver of 100-percent stainless fibers from tow of 8 ktex finesses from 8 to 12 microns, in order to process yarn count Nm 6 to 16.

NSC experience with stretch breaker model S 200 was used to develop a special model FB20.

Following this development, Patrick Strehle presented a collaboration for processing Para-aramid fibers and carbon fibers (with a German Institute), using the FB20.
In more traditional products, Patrick Strehle described how a special line dedicated to mohair fiber was specially designed for a specialty spinner in carding process.

Also, N. Schlumberger collaborates with a European spinner for processing Meta-aramid with the crush cutting process.

LAROCHE

Laroche, in Cours, near Lyon, is a world leader in textile recycling and nonwoven machinery.

Elias Junker, an area sales manager, described how a recycling and nonwoven eco-friendly solution was tailor made for NovaFibers (Grupo de Todos) in Guatemala.

NovaFibers had organized a logistics in the US to collect second hand clothes and transport to Guatemala to resell them but many of these clothes could not be sold for a second life even at very low prices and then had to be thrown to waste.

The challenge was to find a sustainable alternative.

NovaFibers and Laroche worked together, clothes were sent to Laroche demo room in Cours, recycled into fibers to produce nonwovens which were sent to Guatemala to check if were marketable. Then, Laroche designed a complete line for NovaFibers.

Now, NovaFibers imports in Guatemala second hand clothes from the US, resell part of them, and the rest is recycled into regenerated fibers which become the new materials to produce airlay nonwovens for such applications as building insulation, car insulation, felt for bedding, furniture, carpet underfelt, etc.

SUPERBA

Hubert Tretsch, Superba marketing manager, explained how a new yarn style was developed in collaboration with a leading Turkish carpet manufacturer.

Superba is a French company based in Mulhouse (Alsace). They are the world leader in saturated steam heat-setting machinery required for high quality carpet yarns. Member of the VandeWiele family of companies, Superba and their sister companies offer complete lines to produce carpets.

A new textured yarn style, required by fashion trends, was aimed by this major Turkish producer.

The demand was developing for textured (frieze) yarns, but the yarns produced with the existing machines showed too high frieze effect, too randomly curved. A light, and especially even frieze effect was sought by the customer and the end-user.

The collaborative project between Superba and their customer started in 2013. A prototype was developed with which the customer produced sample yarns and carpets which were tested both from a technical and a marketing points of view.

Thanks to the positive feedbacks from the field, the machine was improved and by 2015 the whole process was completed.

DOLLFUS & MULLER
The manufacturer of key original machinery spare parts supplies textile dryer belts and endless special felts to technical textile manufacturers.

David Fauconnier, sales director of Dollfus & Muller, presented 3 key belts and felts developed in close partnerships with European textile machinery manufacturers.

First an innovative non-marking and non-sticking dryer belt specially developed for thermo bonding ovens for the process of nonwovens. This mesh belt available up to 5.2 meters wide has no fiber sticking at the belt joint which avoids web degradation.

Second, a special endless palmer felt for ultra-sensitive fabrics with a felted soft surface which is non- sticking polyester fabrics with weights as low as 90 grams / m2 and which gives to the fabric a new handle.

Third, David Fauconnier presented a non-marking and non-sticking dryer belt for digital printed fabrics ideal for all ink types, including the reactive ones.

CETI EUROPEAN CENTRE OF INNOVATIVE TEXTILES

CETI is a disruptive textile innovation and applied research center for future trends and needs, adapted to the environment. A place to design, prototype, experiment new products, or material for the global textile chain, explained Pascal Denizart, the CEO.

CETI is active from the fibre core to the heart of retail. Its technological platforms include the latest technologies in spinning, weaving, nonwoven and coating processes and a digital infrastructure to accelerate the lifestyle innovation management. CETI is also a partner in eco-conception and circular economy projects like “Sport Infinity”, a research project launched in the context of the H2020 European Commission and sponsored by Adidas with such partners as BASF.

CETI customers and partners are from France where CETI is located but also from other European countries and much further away like from the US.

During the conference a breaking news was announced by CETI and the German association IVGT. CETI and IVGT had signed a cooperation agreement that Denizart and the IVGT General Director, Dr Klaus-Jurgen Kraatz were eager to implement.

Laundry Operations And Management Book Premieres At Clean Show

LAS VEGAS — June 5, 2017 — TRSA unveiled at Clean 2017 Laundry Operations and Management, a 200-page guide that fosters a common understanding of fundamentals and best practices among all professionals in the industry. Regardless of job title or experience level, all industry executives, managers and supervisors benefit from this overview covering all aspects of laundry operations.

Processes are detailed for serving every customer market (Food and Beverage, Healthcare, Hospitality and Industrial). Easy-to-read, illustration-filled chapters explain procedures, technologies and transactions of production, sales and service as they apply to plant workflow:

  • Soil Sorting
  • Washing
  • Drying and Finishing
  • Pack Out (Inventory)
  • Delivery

All management and employee positions in laundries are described with emphasis on how departments work together. An introduction covers the industry’s importance to customers (facilities, services, textiles, markets, history). Maintenance (engineering), safety, and textile basics and product life are detailed.

“In any industry, it’s natural to focus most on your individual job function or department. Seeing the big picture increases employee engagement and productivity. Laundry Operations and Management addresses this directly by helping linen and uniform managers understand their role in plant workflow with a common understanding of fundamentals and best practices,” explained Joseph Ricci, TRSA president and CEO.

Laundry Operations and Management is the new source for educational sessions, text and testing for PMI Production, the first session of TRSA’s Roger F. Cocivera Production Management Institute. PMI consists of two 4-day sessions one year apart. Both cover fundamentals and technologies. PMI Management, the second session, adds skill development in organizing and evaluating production work. The program takes place this year Aug. 6-10 at the University of Maryland.

While the book’s chapters detail major steps in plant workflow, they describe the significance of each to the entire organization, not just the production department.

More than three years in the making, Laundry Operations and Management’s creation involved dozens of TRSA member operators and associates, led by a 21-member Subject Matter Experts (SME) Task Force chaired by Ian Bigelow of Crothall Healthcare. Another 20 members acted as SME contributors.
