Continuing with its aim to ensure energy savings and further sustainable benefits for its customers, Monforts presented a wide range of new products and solutions at ITMA Asia + CITME in Shanghai last week.

On a shared booth with its CHTC Fong`s parent company, Monforts presented its latest developments for heat recovery and exhaust air cleaning following the trend towards further reduced energy consumption and the growing demand for exhaust air purification.

The new Eco Booster is available as a retrofit version for installation on existing stenters or as an integrated version into the new Montex 8500 stenter. Low maintenance and no downtime, due to automatic cleaning processes, are the key benefits of Eco Booster.

An exhaust air cleaning unit, Eco Cleaner, can be directly linked to the Montex 8500 stenter and smell and visible particles in the air will be extracted. VOC`s (volatile oxygen compounds) can be filtered out with an additional UV-C system.

Monforts also presented its latest Timatec modules for coating. The recently acquired TImatec company has already yielded results in the shape of first orders from Italy, Germany, Mexico and Colombia.

Cut models of different coating options were also on show for ‘Knife over Air’, ‘Knife over Roller’, ‘Magnetic Knife’ and ‘Screen Printing’ versions of coating units as well as the multifunctional unit incorporating all options into one highly versatile unit.

Special focus was also given to Monforts competence in Denim Finishing Ranges especially featuring the new ‘Eco Denim’ range and the High Speed Denim Finishing version.

Monforts Technologists for continuous dyeing and technical textiles were available at the exhibition to provide detailed advice. Technical textiles specialist Jürgen Hanel commented: “We were very satisfied with the amount of interest shown in our technical textiles solutions, especially as this is not a dedicated technical textiles exhibition.”

All of Monforts hi-tech ranges of finishing, dyeing and compressive shrinking ranges are produced at the company's MONTEX European production facility near Klagenfurt, Austria, which is celebrating its 35th anniversary in 2016.
