With RUCOINX screen printing inks becoming the INXScreen brand, customers can expect to see the INXPad brand transition on labels, packaging, technical documents, and safety data sheets. All existing ink formulations, technical specifications, and product performance will continue with the same reliability, and customers will continue to benefit from INX’s extensive global resources, technical support, and regulatory expertise.

TRIANGLE to be Rebranded as INXJet

INX International’s TRIANGLE brand of premium digital inks will transition to INXJet. This change reflects the company’s dedication to advancing digital printing solutions and aligning its offerings as part of a unified, trusted identity.

“The rebranding of TRIANGLE to INXJet is a natural progression in our strategy to advance the digital printing market,’ said Renee Schouten, Vice President of Marketing for INX. “INXJet will continue to deliver the same high quality, reliable inkjet solutions that customers trust, while enhancing clarity and consistency within our portfolio.”

INXJet will maintain the same trusted formulations and high quality standards customers of TRIANGLE have relied on for years. Clearer branding will result when labels and packaging are updated to feature the INXJet brand identity, and support and service will remain a cornerstone of INX’s commitment to its customers.

These rebranding efforts reflect INX International’s forward-thinking vision and dedication to enhancing the customer experience. By leveraging recognized and trusted brand names such as INXScreen, INXPad, and INXJet, customers will be able to easily identify the solutions they need.

JAAF Welcomes Government Efforts In U.S. Trade Dialogue, Seeks Parity Of Tariff For Apparel Exports

COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — April 25, 2025 — The Joint Apparel Association Forum (JAAF) welcomes the Government of Sri Lanka’s proactive engagement with the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) in Washington D.C., and extends its appreciation to His Excellency President Anura Kumara Dissanayake and the delegation for prioritizing discussions that advance equitable and mutually beneficial trade relations between Sri Lanka and the United States.

The U.S. continues to be a vital and long-standing trading partner for Sri Lanka’s apparel industry. As an industry that supports 350,000 employees directly, and a further 700,000 livelihoods across the country, we are encouraged by the Government’s commitment to address key trade barriers and seek solutions that safeguard market access and competitiveness for Sri Lankan exports.

We trust that any future tariff arrangements agreed upon will reflect parity with those offered to other apparel-producing nations, ensuring a level playing field for Sri Lankan exporters. In this context, we respectfully urge both governments to consider the long-term sustenance of Sri Lanka’s apparel industry—an industry that remains a key pillar of the national economy and a global leader in ethical manufacturing.

As discussions progress towards a potential bilateral trade agreement, we take this opportunity to reiterate that Sri Lanka’s apparel sector operates with full traceability, transparency and sustainability, in line with internationally accepted ethical standards and that this should be recognized in setting a special concessionary tariff.  We remain confident that Sri Lanka’s value proposition as a responsible sourcing destination is both credible and competitive.

We look forward to continued dialogue between the two governments and express our full support for a future-oriented agreement that will enhance trade, attract investment, and contribute to shared prosperity.

MoistTech Corp To Highlight IR3000 Series Moisture Sensors For Textile And Nonwoven Industries At IDEA25

SARASOTA, FL. — April 25, 2025 — MoistTech Corp., the global leader in moisture measurement and control, announces it will highlight the cutting-edge IR3000 series moisture sensors for the textile and nonwoven industries at IDEA25 to be held April 29th – May 1st 2025, in Miami, FL. Visit booth #2232 to see these state-of-the-art sensors, featuring Near Infrared (NIR) technology, in action. Offering unparalleled accuracy and reliability in moisture analysis, the IR3000 significantly enhances product quality, productivity, and energy efficiency throughout the textile manufacturing process.

The IR3000 series sensors provide instant, continuous moisture measurement, allowing textile manufacturers to maintain precise control over moisture content from fiber production to finished fabrics. This capability is crucial for ensuring optimal product quality and manufacturing efficiency as water can greatly impact textile production lines. Many fabrics rapidly absorb and release moisture due to their hygroscopic nature. Consequently, the water context of a fabric greatly affects its physical properties, including length, dimension, strength, elasticity, and electrical resistance.

One of the key advantages of the IR3000 series is its ability to measure moisture in a wide range of materials, including natural fibers like cotton and wool, synthetic fibers, and blended fabrics. In industries where mold is a concern, particularly in the cotton ginning sector, the IR3000 effectively maintains moisture content below 8%, thereby preventing losses caused by mold.

The IR3000’s non-contact design allows for continuous operation without interfering with the manufacturing process, minimizing contamination and maintenance requirements. This feature is particularly beneficial in high-speed textile production environments where continuous monitoring is essential.

MoistTech’s advanced NIR technology ensures that the IR3000 sensors deliver true, repeatable results year after year with minimal maintenance. Pre-calibrated at the factory, these sensors are guaranteed to maintain their accuracy without drifting or requiring recalibration, unlike competing technologies that often necessitate frequent adjustments.

Furthermore, the IR3000 series is designed for easy integration into existing production lines. The sensors can be seamlessly incorporated into process control systems, allowing for real-time adjustments based on moisture data. This capability enables manufacturers to maintain consistent product quality and optimize production efficiency.

As the textile industry continues to evolve, with increasing emphasis on quality control and sustainable manufacturing practices, MoistTech’s IR3000 series moisture sensors offer a cutting-edge solution to meet these challenges. By providing accurate, real-time moisture data, these sensors empower manufacturers to maintain the highest standards of product quality while optimizing their production processes.

For more information about the IR3000 series moisture sensors and their applications in the textile and nonwoven industries, visit MoistTech at Booth #2232 or https://www.moisttech.com/applications/textile-moisture-control/.

Syre has an ambition to support Vietnam in its green transition and as a global leader in the circular textile industry. The partnership with the Binh Dinh Province will, with the right conditions in place, be a great opportunity to jointly lead the textile shift. We now need to work together to get all fundamentals in place for an investment decision,” says Dennis Nobelius, CEO of Syre.

Syre aims at establishing several Gigascale textile-to-textile recycling plants across the globe in the coming decade, closing the loop from textile waste to circular polyester in each region. One Gigascale plant is designed for an annual output of 100-250,000 metric tons of high-quality PET chips. Each plant project is expected to generate up to 600 jobs, including skilled manufacturing workers, technical experts and operational support staff.
