Glen Raven Inc., one of the leading global providers of high-performance fabric, is holding concept gallery on November 17-18, 2014 at Mumbai. Main showcase on the gallery will comprise more than 150 different products of its premier fabrics for various industries including hospitality for interior and decoration, automotive, petrochemicals, construction, mining, logistics, geosynthetics, filtration and protective fabrics for the police, military, and fire fighters, so on. The company provides high-performance fabrics for various industries including Subrella Fabric for signage, automotive, petrochemicals, etc.
Glen Raven’s manufacturing facilities are spread across three continents, including North America, Europe and Asia, selling products in over 100 countries. Its brands such as Sunbrella and Dickson fabrics are used for residential and commercial awnings, upholstery, outdoor furniture, and boating. On the other side, India’s technical textiles market, which is currently estimated at $17 billion is likely to reach a level of $32 billion by 2023, will develop as an important centre for both manufacturing and consumption. Innovation in using technical textiles for new applications across various industries including signage will be the driver of the growth of the industry. “Globally, technical textile forms 65 percent of the textile market, whereas in India it is only 10 to 15 percent. This indicates the massive growth potential in this segment,” predicts Paige Mullis, director-concept development, Glen Raven.
