The DITF will be present in Frankfurt with a booth and five presentations

This year's focus is on smart cycles, pneumatic textiles, fabrics with integrated light guides and textile pressure sensors, ceramic fibers, self-cooling surfaces, lignin coatings for geotextiles and protective gloves, sensor work gloves, bio-based and biodegradable nonwovens and sound insulation.
