Tailored Innovations

A culture of innovation

Because textile technology and performance is constantly evolving, we apply our R&D expertise to innovate interlining solutions that support the latest fabrics and textiles.

Alongside our design and manufacturing expertise, we have a deep knowledge of adhesives and base materials. This gives our global R&D Apparel organization the ability to work closely with our customers to design new solutions. Many of the products in our current portfolio were the result of special projects run in partnership with our customers.
