Israel based Nylon 6.6 producer Nilit has announced it will be showing its innovative yarn range, including the company's novel Innergy yarn at the forthcoming Intertextile Shanghai 2011 trade fair. At the show, Nilit will also showcase the Nilit BodyFashion Trendbook for Spring/Summer 2013.

Intertextile Shanghai is a leading international trade fair for apparel fabrics and accessories held yearly in China. It is set to take place from tomorrow 18-21 October 2011 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre.

Nilit specializes in developing yarns which aim to have exceptional performance properties and its Nilit Innergy is the company's latest, cutting-edge fibre to reach the market.

Made from nylon 6.6, Nilit Innergy has a built-in, naturally occurring mineral additive that is said to create far infrared ray (FIR) emissions. Garments made with Nilit Innergy yarns are said to invigorate the body, increase feelings of well-being and help to reduce the appearance of cellulite.

This, Nilit says, makes the yarn perfect for shapers, hosiery, lingerie, medical socks, gloves and sportswear. Visitors at Intertextile Shanghai will have the opportunity to experience the new fibre close up for the first time.

In addition, numerous other Nilit yarns will be on display at the Intertextile Show. Among the yarns to be highlighted are: Nilit Softex - full dull microfiber yarn that is said to deliver supreme softness and rich colouration, Nilit Aquarius - with moisture management properties built-in to the fibre; and Nilit Ecocare - recycled yarn said to have excellent colour depth and dye uniformity.

Nilit's new Bodyfashion Trendbook for Spring/Summer 2013 will also be presented.  The book features collections designed and conceived by Nilit fashion consultant Ilana Joselowitz.  Bodywear and activewear are the focus of this year's collection. Nilit offers a range of technologically advanced yarns that have been engineered to provide enhanced comfort and performance.

Strong, growing presence in China

"Dedicated to the textile industry, Nilit's participation in the Intertextile Shanghai 2011 will be its most recent activity in China following two strategic investments: the addition of a new spinning plant and the expansion of the company's texturing capacity in its Suzhou manufacturing site," the Israeli company said in a statement.

"We at NILIT are excited to have the opportunity to display our latest yarn innovations, specifically Nilit Innergy, at the Intertextile Shanghai tradeshow," commented   Michal Ron Gavish,  Global Marketing Manager at Nilit.

"Nilit is committed to the textile industry in general and to the Chinese market in particular. Intertextile Shanghai is the perfect venue for showing the market why Nilit is known as the leader in creativity and innovation in nylon 6.6."
