The LYCRA Company, a global leader in fiber and technology solutions for the apparel industry, is reimagining the trade show experience at Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics Autumn Edition, which opened today in China. Building on the success of last year’s ALL IN concept, the company has expanded its co-creation vision into a 356-square-meter Lifestyle District featuring partners Jingzili New Material, JYT Textile, Lianxingfa Knitting, and Trend Textile. The district is part of a larger 895-square-meter pavilion showcasing a total of 19 co-exhibitors. Together, they demonstrate how innovations in fiber, fabric, and garments can be combined to create compelling solutions for both work and play.
“The apparel industry is built on creativity, and great ideas emerge when people with different perspectives come together,” said Jason Wang, vice president, Asia, The LYCRA Company. “This year, we wanted to create an environment that sparks curiosity, encourages new thinking, and showcases what’s possible when innovation moves beyond individual products to become part of a broader experience. Intertextile provides an ideal setting to share that vision and inspire what’s next for our industry.”

Displays cover COOLMAX, LYCRA and THERMOLITE applications for performance apparel, workwear, denim and everyday essentials.
Across the pavilion, LYCRA, COOLMAX, and THERMOLITE brand innovations are showcased through commercial apparel applications that demonstrate how performance, comfort, and sustainability can help address evolving consumer and industry needs
New for wovens, COOLMAX CloakFX fiber helps mask the appearance of sweat on fabric, delivers wet and dry fabric opacity, or anti-see-through performance, while also providing moisture management. Made with 100% recycled PET and certified under the Global Recycled Standard, it helps reduce reliance on virgin raw materials
LYCRA FiT400 fiber for both wovens and knits is being previewed at Intertextile. The knits version has been refreshed and is now available in three performance tiers: Essential, Expanded, and Elevated, allowing brands to select the level of functionality and sustainability that best suits their needs. It also delivers non-spandex stretch and cooling benefits that last the life of the garment. The woven version creates fabrics that offer traditional aesthetics with durable, low-to-moderate mechanical stretch for all-day comfort.
RENEWABLE LYCRA fiber is made with 70% renewable content derived in part from field corn grown in the American Midwest. It delivers the same performance as traditional LYCRA fiber while also supporting efforts to reduce garment carbon footprints
Ebru Ozaydin, product category director, denim & ready-to-wear, The LYCRA Company, will present “Designed for Real Life: How Performance Wovens Are Reshaping the Everyday Wardrobe” on Wednesday, Aug. 26, at 10 a.m. China Standard Time at Stage H4.1-A149. The session will explore COOLMAX CloakFX fiber and other innovations designed for workwear, performance fabrics, and everyday apparel applications
Visitors can explore The LYCRA Company’s Lifestyle District and pavilion at Hall 4.1-E56 throughout the Intertextile exhibition. Applications on display span performance apparel, workwear, denim, and everyday essentials, illustrating how ingredient-brand technologies are being translated into commercially relevant products that meet consumer needs
