#Techtextil 2022

TEXTECHNO will present award winner FIMATEST at Techtextil

At the Techtextil 2022, Frankfurt, TEXTECHNO Herbert Stein GmbH & Co. KG, the experts for quality control systems, will show its latest testing instruments for industrial fibres, yarns, and composites.

TEXTECHNO demonstrates the FAVIMAT+, an automatic single-fibre testing system, which determines the following fibre properties in a single instrument: linear density, tensile properties, mechanical crimp properties (crimp percent, removal force and stability), geometrical crimp structure, fibre-to-metal friction and bending stiffness.

Additionally TEXTECHNO shows the FIMATEST system, that measures the fibre-matrix adhesion by means of a single-fibre pull-out. The system consists of the FIMABOND embedding station and a clamping accessory to the FAVIMAT+. FIMATEST has won the famous JEC World Innovation Award.

A further highlight Textechno's new wrap reel for yarns and reinforced fibres TEXREEL. It works in accordance with all relevant machinery directives and convenient to use. 

Further outstanding Textechno products for testing industrial yarns, rovings, tapes and fabrics are

+ STATIMAT 4U Automatic linear density and tensile tester for high-tenacity yarns

+ DYNAFIL ME+ Dynamic shrinkage tester of all kinds of yarns,

+ DRAPETEST Automatic drapability tester for standard and non-crimped fabrics,

+ ROVINGTEST Automatic test system for the processing properties of rovings

+TAPETEST Automatic test system for the processing properties of Tapes

You will find TEXTECHNO on a joint booth with LENZING INSTRUMENTS (Austria) and the University of Applied Sciences HS NIederrhein in Hall 12.0, booth B 52.

RE&UP contributes to Global Fashion Summit 2026 circularity discussion

RE&UP contributed to the global conversation on textile circularity at Global Fashion Summit 2026 in Copenhagen, where Fatih Konukoğlu, Chairman of RE&UP and Vice Chairman of Sanko Holding, took part in both the keynote session “The New Rules” and the panel discussion “A Reckoning and Renewal for Circular Horizons”, alongside leaders from H&M Group, Looper Textile Co. and Sourcing Journal.

Europe’s textile future at a turning point: New 2030 Circularity Blueprint aims to scale recycling and unlock investment opportunities

The EU textile system is at a critical crossroads. Today, less than 1% of discarded garments are recycled into new garments, despite EU-wide obligations for separate collection. In response, Global Fashion Agenda (GFA) is launching the 2030 Circularity Blueprint, in partnership with ReHubs. This ambitious initiative is designed to support the transformation of the EU textile ecosystem to advance textile-to-textile recycling and drive the transition to a circular economy.

Regional hemp bast for lightweight construction profiles

The cultivation of fibre hemp for the production of ropes and clothing has a long tradition in Saxony. Due to its excellent fibre properties, it is also suitable as a renewable raw material for reinforcement in fibre composites. At the STFI and IWU in Chemnitz, the CannaPul project is cur- rently investigating how a regional value chain for hemp-based lightweight construction profiles can be established. To this end, the technical processing of hemp fibres into continuous fibre strands and their embedding in a suitable bio-based matrix are being investigated.
