#ITM 2016

Reiners + Fürst shows premium rings and travellers at ITM 2016

Mr. Benjamin Reiners, Owner and Managing Director of R+F (c) 2016 R+F
During the upcoming ITM in Istanbul Reiners + Fürst (R+F) will present the latest generation of TURBO chromium coated rings and a selection of enhanced ring travellers. R+F products are made in Germany.
Of course the R+F TURBO rings will be on display. TURBO rings offer simplified running-in and extremely stable running performance with highest spindle speeds even under most challenging spinning conditions like Compact and Siro-Compact. Since their launch into the market in 2007 more than 15 Million installed TURBO rings contribute to the success of spinning mills all over the world.

Another exhibit will be the R+F ring travellers which stand out due to most rapidly building up of lubricating film on their contact area with the spinning ring. The current innovation is a significant improvement of the traveller surface with reduced friction coefficient. The benefits are even prolonged life-times and further reduced ends-downs.

Probably a highlight will be the CERADUR ring and traveller system.

CERADUR optimizes capacity utilisation of long ring spinning machines and simultaneously reduces labour costs as well as traveller costs due to extremely long lifetimes:
  • 2-3 more days of production per year due to massive reduction of traveller changes and machine stoppage time
  • 30-40% reduction of traveller costs per year
  • 80% savings on labour costs for the traveller changes in the mill
  • less disturbances due to fewer ends downs after each individual traveller change
R+F offers to analyse the individual mill situation together with the customer and evaluate possible saving potentials.

R+F kindly invite you to stop by and visit them at their agent’s booth (INTA hall 3 booth 314) at ITM in Istanbul.

A flagship for chemical production: BASF inaugurates world-scale Verbund site in China

BASF today (March 26, 2026) celebrated the official inauguration of its newly built, world-scale Verbund site in Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province in southern China. Covering an area of around four square kilometers, it is more than a major BASF project in the chemical growth market of China. “Zhanjiang shows what the future of chemistry looks like: efficient, digital and sustainable by design. The site showcases a smart integrated Verbund structure on an industrial scale,” said Dr. Markus Kamieth, CEO of BASF, at the ceremony attended by representatives from government, customers, business partners and employees.

VEOCEL™ Lyocell production expands to Asia – Launching a new chapter for nonwovens in the region

VEOCEL™, Lenzing's flagship specialty nonwovens brand, expands production at its Thai plant in Prachinburi. This is the first-ever production of its nonwoven-grade lyocell fibers in Asia. Built in 2022 with a 100,000-ton annual production capacity, the facility - previously focused on fibers for textile applications - now can directly meet the demand for VEOCEL™’s biodegradable¹, wood-based lyocell fibers for nonwovens products. These fibers are an essential ingredient for high-quality nonwovens products, ranging from baby wipes to facial sheet masks and everyday personal hygiene items.

Hof University develops sustainable textile coating for the fashion of tomorrow from mushrooms

Clothing is often treated as disposable: T-shirts for events, general merchandise, or short-term campaigns frequently end up in the trash after only a few uses. This is particularly problematic given that their production still largely relies on fossil-based materials. This is precisely where a new research project at Hof University of Applied Sciences comes in.

Fashion for Good mobilises industry to adopt mass balance attribution and accelerate decarbonisation

Fashion for Good launches today the Mass Balance Demonstrator project, a collaborative industry initiative to implement and scale the mass balance attribution (MBA) chain-of-custody model for biomass-attributed PET in textile applications. The project represents a concrete step toward accelerating brand-driven decarbonisation across the apparel value chain.
