WidePlus’s green innovations build market trust
Leading fabrics solution provider WidePlus speaks to WTiN about its Factory Direct approach to delivering sustainable, functional materials for its global customer base.
The Taiwan-based company is committed to delivering high-quality products and solutions for its clients, particularly in recycling and environmental protection, demonstrating advanced technology and unwavering dedication. WidePlus has been a Bluesign partner since 2012 and, through its continuous innovation and quality-driven focus, has become a leading provider of functional textiles and a supplier for brands.
WidePlus is direct factory managed, specialising in synthetic woven fabrics. The plant has 700 weaving looms, 28 dyeing machines and four stenter frames. Production wise, WidePlus has a 5-million-yard monthly capacity and is continually improving equipment to provide targeted performance textiles.
Currently, the firm is helping its customers address textile recycling as environmental considerations become legal requirements. WidePlus has developed recycled and biobased polyester and nylon fabrics that are poly-fluorinated chemical (PFC)-free.
The future of Taiwan’s functional fabrics
WidePlus is 17 years old and is adding value amid the competitive post-pandemic global textile market. The company is embracing new challenges and enhancing its sustainability methods with its research and development (R&D), green values, factory-direct operations, and laboratories.
WidePlus seeks to demonstrate its unique market positioning and forward-thinking through a cohesive corporate identity and product differentiation, aiming to forge future collaboration opportunities globally.
The team said: “For the future of textiles in Taiwan, there needs to be a transition into higher or advanced protective and functional fabric – not just for apparel, but for computing and electronic vehicles etc.”
The company added it will keep investing in its machines and developing new fabrics. The team added it will continue to work with the Taiwan Textile Research Institute (TTRI) to source the best materials from overseas and within Taiwan to develop more innovative fabrics.
With its cutting-edge technology, high-performance products, and brand revitalisation strategy, WidePlus has positioned itself as a forward-thinking textile company, driven by innovation and environmental sustainability. The company is committed to creating lasting value and fostering mutually beneficial relationships with its customers.
