The Woolmark Company's stand at SpinExpo Shanghai will be showcasing ‘The Wool Lab Autumn/Winter 2016-17’ and latest innovations in Merino wool from September 1 to 3, 2015.
The company is focusing on three key pillars of innovation: touch, technique and texture. Examples of the three directions include warp-knit fabrics which extend the range of options for using Merino wool in sports, casualwear and business casuals and knitted denim with a choice of circular knit, seamless or flat-bed knitting, Merino Retract knitwear that looks like boiled wool but has the resilience and pilling performance of normal wool and Mottled Merino is a special yarn which has been created by randomly mixing untreated and anti-felt treated regions within the yarn to create a highly textured and mottled aspect after milling.
On September 2, The Woolmark Company is hosting two seminars in at the event venue. At 11am, The Wool Lab AW16/17 will be presented to attendees, showcasing a collection of inspirational themes to inspire and influence trends dedicated to the upcoming AW16/17 season. The Wool Lab is an innovative seasonal guide to the best wool fabrics and yarns in the world. It connects designers with manufacturers through technical skills, know-how and passion. At 2pm, the company will present a seminar on Merino innovations.
