Hyosung TNC
Hyosung TNC is set to present its latest fibre innovations at Performance Days in Munich from March 18 to 19. The company aims to highlight the growing demand for soft stretch materials that offer both comfort and high performance in activewear and bodywear markets.
One of the key highlights will be Creora EasyFlex Elastane, developed to provide enhanced comfort. This fibre offers four-way stretch, light support, and a soft, second-skin feel. Compared to regular elastane, it improves ease of movement in everyday garments such as socks, hosiery, underwear, leggings, and activewear.
Creora EasyFlex also delivers strong recovery and maintains its shape well, allowing one size to fit a wider range of body types comfortably. A dyeable version is available as well, which ensures better colour consistency and reduces the chances of fabric transparency.
