Teijin Frontier unveils its cutting-edge Microft MX high-performance fabric, a revolutionary textile crafted from multifilament yarn, seamlessly blending polyester and nylon through innovative spinning technology.
This fusion results in a finely woven chambray appearance, marked by deep, vibrant colors. The raw yarn, characterized by a gently V-shaped, highly-deformed cross-section, imparts both bulkiness and a soft, spun-like texture.
The fabric ingeniously marries the best attributes of polyester and nylon, combining the abrasion resistance and color development of nylon with the water absorption, quick-drying properties, and shape stability of polyester.
As the demand for fashion bridging sportswear practicality with lifestyle aesthetics rises, Teijin Frontier aims to launch Microft MX for the 2025 spring and summer outdoor clothing and sportswear collections.
The subsequent expansion into functional innerwear and fashion clothing anticipates selling 500,000 meters annually by 2026, addressing a gap in the market for materials seamlessly merging the texture and functionality of polyester and nylon.
