The Taiwan Textile Federation (TTF) has expressed its interest to partner Indian counterparts to promote technical and composite textiles. The TTF showed its interest in collaboration with the Indian textile sector at the recently held ‘Technotex 2015’ in Mumbai, according to Textile Association of India (TAF).
The TTF and the Bureau of Foreign Trade (BOFT) had set up the Taiwan Pavilion jointly with Taiwan Composites Association (TCA) at the Technotex.
The Taiwan pavilion displayed the country’s latest textiles and composites with quality products which showcased pioneering technologies. Taiwan participated in a big way this year with 18 companies producing high-end composites, innovative technical textiles, raw materials, accessories and non-woven machinery.
“The need of the hour for Indian manufacturing is quality, reliability and consistency. Taiwan is one of the very few suppliers in the world who can fulfill the above criteria and help the industry grow exponentially,” the TAI said quoting Sean Tsai of TTF.
Taiwan has an international reputation for technical textile development. At Technotex, Taiwanese companies exhibited a wide range of application fields like protective, performance functional, eco-friendly, mobile, nonwoven and new materials for architectural and geotechnical construction.
