The key areas of focus are where speciality fibres are needed. Take, for example, flame-retardant fibres and yarns for interior textiles - with Trevira CS, we are global market leader in safety textiles for the contract market. Among our most recent developments are antimicrobial fibres and yarns for home textiles and special apparel applications.

At the same time Trevira will stand by its brand for specialities, maintaining both services and customized product range for customers. Reliance and Trevira will in addition create value for customers of both companies by virtue of combined R&D initiatives. This will make both companies more profitable and create synergies.

Trevira holds a strong market position in home textiles, nonwovens and automotive textiles. For apparel, the company offers specialties like Trevira Xpand for large denim manufacturers all over the world, Trevira Bioactive for corporate wear, new microfilaments for lingerie and functional clothing and low-pill fibres for high end fashion and functional wear. Trevira will undertake enhanced initiatives by assisting its customers to create value chains with the retail industry.
