At the core of XLANCE®’s innovation is a cross-linked polyolefin-based elastic yarn, engineered to deliver durable stretch performance while withstanding the most challenging industrial treatments. Unlike conventional elastomers, XLANCE® offers superior resistance to oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite, laser, ozone, and aggressive wash cycles. Its unique polymer structure, combining a polyolefin backbone with chemical cross-links, ensures long-lasting elasticity, shape retention, and enhanced fabric durability.

Designed for industrial performance and creative freedom, XLANCE® enables manufacturers and designers to push the boundaries of denim finishing without compromising product quality. From vintage wash effects and laser etching to custom patterns and high-impact chemical treatments, fabrics featuring XLANCE® maintain their integrity, elasticity, and softness, even after repeated processing and wear.

One material. Endless possibilities.

XLANCE® is the bridge between performance and creativity.

It enables a new generation of stretch denim fabrics designed to move endlessly, without ever compromising performance. This is more than elasticity: it's intelligent reactivity. A fiber that adapts, responds, enhances. Designers are now free to push boundaries with advanced finishes, laser-etched vintage effects, custom patterns, and high-impact physical and chemical treatments—without sacrificing the fabric’s integrity.

Futuristic Fun, Creative Freedom.

XLANCE® is more than a technical innovation—it’s a mindset.

In the world of XLANCE®, jeans retain their original shape even after countless washes. Garments remain soft and comfortable, even after the harshest treatments. Every move is supported by dynamic, resilient stretch not passive elasticity.

It’s a universe of expressive and physical freedom. For creators. For wearers. For anyone who refuses to compromise on style or durability.

With the introduction of XLANCE®, denim manufacturers gain access to a reliable, high-performance alternative to traditional stretch fibers, ensuring products that retain their shape, comfort, and aesthetic appeal over time.

Industry professionals and visitors are invited to experience the XLANCE® innovation firsthand at PV Denim Milan, Superstudio Più, on May 21–22, 2024.

MUNICH FABRIC START: Between Attitude and Sensuality

The future begins where we reimagine it. After seasons of restraint, Spring.Summer 27 marks a conscious counter-trend: optimism, sensuality, and creative freedom are replacing pragmatism and neutrality. Physical presence and individuality are regaining importance – as a response to uncertainty, exhaustion, and algorithmic predictability. The overarching theme of PLEASURE stands for fashion as an emotional space, as an expression of attitude and cultural reflection. Colours, surfaces, and materials become vehicles for self-confidence and joie de vivre.

Enhanced protection without added weight: Innovative technology for flame-retardant textiles doubles reaction time and ensures high wearing comfort

Flame-retardant textiles have long faced the same dilemma: the higher the level of protection, the greater the compromise in comfort, weight and breathability. This is especially important for workwear and protective clothing worn for long hours, where comfort is crucial to wearer acceptance and satisfaction. At Techtextil 2026 in Frankfurt, Swiss company Textilcolor AG will unveil pyroshell™, an innovative flame-retardant technology designed to tackle this challenge. Protection is provided by a graphite-based functional layer integrated into the textile structure, which doubles the reaction time before burns occur while significantly enhancing comfort. The material does not release any toxic fumes and offers textile manufacturers entirely new opportunities to design and produce protective and functional garments. It is also durable enough to withstand up to 50 industrial washes.
