World's largest nylon and spandex producer Invista announced building a new research facility in China. Based in the Qingpu District of Shanghai, this facility is set up to cater to the market demands for innovations in fiber and fabric applications in Asia, and Mainland China in specific.
The new textile research center will have a floor surface of over 32,000 square feet and will be built on the same site as the company's Shaghai spandex plant. The state of the art commercial textile research center is expected to start operations in May 2009.
The facility will be Invista's third textile research center in the world, with the other two in the United States and Taiwan.
Focusing on application and commercialization of new fiber and fabric, the center is expected to offer comprehensive and innovative solutions to customers for every major aspect of the production process, ranging from yarn processing, knitting, dyeing to finishing.
