After more than 150 years of company history, Cedro Têxtil is once again embracing the challenges of a changing industry. Widely recognized as the largest manufacturer of workwear fabrics in Latin America, the Brazilian textile company continues to invest in the modernization of its production facilities. A key milestone in this process was the decision to install a state-of-the-art Brückner stenter frame just over a year ago.
Having maintained an 80% share of Pakistan’s new stenter market with MONTEX machines for over 20 years and additionally now installed over 40 THERMEX dyeing ranges in the country, Monforts will highlight the benefits of its latest Universal Energy Tower at IGATEX 2026.
BW Converting, Archroma and Monforts will participate in IGATEX Pakistan 2026, held Oct. 15–18 at the Expo Centre Lahore, at Al-Ameen Trading Corporation’s stand F-2-09 in Hall 2. Together, the companies will highlight precision spray-finishing technology, textile chemistry expertise and application-development support to help Pakistan’s textile manufacturers evaluate opportunities to improve finishing performance and production efficiency.
The Monforts Advanced Technology Centre (ATC), initially opened in 2103 and subsequently expanded, continues to be an invaluable resource to customers from around the world in achieving new standards in fabric finishing.
The intelligent automation solution for the ISEC evo recycling machine automatically adjusts operating parameters to changing input materials, improving throughput, melt quality and process stability while reducing operator workload.
The patent-pending fabric technology prevents hay, straw, mulch and grass from clinging to high-pile fleece. The development received a category award in Fast Company's 2026 Innovation by Design Awards.
The collaboration combines Merino wool with regen™ BIO Spandex and recycled functional fibres to develop fabrics offering comfort, breathability, stretch and shape retention. Future development will focus on recovery wear applications.
The new industry initiative uses FibreTrace® technology to physically verify the origin of polyester filament yarn, supporting compliance with regional trade agreements and strengthening transparency across textile supply chains.
