Rieter Nonwovens to Exhibit at Techtextil Frankfurt
Rieter is going to attend Techtextil Frankfurt, June 16-18, 2009, together with NSC nonwoven on booth B
Rieter Nonwovens: systems supplier for complete nonwovens lines
Rieter is a pioneer as a systems supplier and has already supplied several complete spunlace lines. Rieter guarantees the quality of all equipment and the characteristics of spunlace fabrics. Nonwovens producers now have a single interlocutor. By choosing Rieter, customers have the opportunity to concentrate their efforts on product and fabric development. Rieter's experience in the spunlace industry combined with its innovations have given birth to a new generation of project management.
New nonwoven process for innovative fabrics - Spunjet
Rieter's expertise in the spunlace and the spunbond industry has given birth to a new nonwovens process, called sSpunjet. This technology entails the hydro-entanglement of continuous filament in line, creating a new generation of nonwovens. Rieter is currently offering solutions for producing spunlaid nonwoven webs of superior quality under the SPUNjet® brand name. The high quality of water needles generated by Rieter injectors ensures high-grade bonding of continuous filament webs and overcomes all the drawbacks of thermal bonding using calenders. In fact, spunjet nonwoven fabrics demonstrate unique properties:
l 25% to 30% higher tensile strength
l 50% to 80% more bulkiness
This new technology has been introduced as a response to nonwovens producers who are looking for new market opportunities for technical applications such as geotextiles, roofing, synthetic leather.... SPUNjet® fabrics marry the strength of spunbond and the softness of spunlace. The Spunjet process offers additional fabric properties with regard to softness, drape, tensile strength and isotropic MD:CD ratio. Spunjet lines can operate at speeds of up to
French machinery at Techtextil 2009
Techtextil in Frankfurt will be a good opportunity to meet machinery manufacturers, the French group will welcome technical textiles and nonwovens producers.
French textile machinery manufacturers are often world leaders on their specialties.
Their strategy is to offer tailor made solutions to solve customers’ needs and be their long term partners. This strategy is particularly fitted to the nonwovens and technical textiles sectors in which the machinery manufacturers are really integrated. This is how new markets for the technical textiles can be opened. “At the next Techtextil show, you will see again that the machinery manufacturers are considered as part of the TT industry, not as off shelves machinery vendors. Many of our members will be present, close to their customers, to understand their needs, listen to them, and better evaluate how they can create value for them.” says Bruno Ameline the chairman of their association which group 35 companies with a total turnover of 1 billion Euros.
He adds “Particularly in difficult economic times, R and D and investments are top priorities to offer, at the best price, the products the market needs. Then, even if the recovery road is rocky, the crisis will come to an end and our customers who have taken the good investment decisions will emerge even stronger.”
The textile industry in general and the technical textile sectors in particular (except for whose selling to such devastated industries as the automotive) are not immune but certainly less hurt than many sectors.
In fact the most important impact of the crisis on the textile industry is probably the collapse of the credit system which is essential to organize, secure and finance international trade. Banks are highly risk averse, credit insurance companies are more and more conservative, therefore international contracts are difficult to finalize and delays may occur but the global TT consumption does not seem to decline. This is why the French machinery manufacturers who are particularly active in technical textiles and nonwovens are assuming their long term strategy:
l be specialized manufacturers, often world leaders on niche markets with tailor made solutions to address their customers’ needs,
l help these customers analyze the market trends, choose their strategies and implement them, in one word, be their long term technology partners.
Thanks to this strategy,
Evelyne Cholet, the association Secretary General concludes: “We are proud to promote the latest technology and improvements in production for tomorrow. We think that only the companies increasing their efforts on R and D, on market presence will survive. We want to be part of these. We and our customers must always remember that, particularly in insecure economic environment times, the choice is between “do” or “die”.
