Cheese, chocolate and a chairlift up to the flowering meadow taking visitors to the Swiss pavilion is one the biggest draws at the World Exposition in Shanghai which runs to the end of October 2010. From May to July, more then 1.1 million visitors became familiar with Swiss traditions and Swiss developments visiting the pavilion.

Bratwurst, rösti potatoes, raclette and fondue are proving just as popular among the Chinese and international guests as the exhibitions and events focusing on “Swiss Excellence in Science, Technology and Innovation“. Among the attractions is the innovative NanoSphere finish. Textiles treated with NanoSphere are extremely water, oil and dirt repelling, hardwearing and, thanks to modern C6 fluorochemicals, at the ecological forefront.

NanoSphere was developed in Switzerland by Schoeller and Clariant International (one of the Silver Sponsors of the Swiss Pavilion) in compliance with the criteria of the bluesign Standard, the world-wide most stringent EHS standard for textiles. In addition to clothing, shoes and luggage, NanoSphere is used around the world in furnishings and for belts, webbing and harnesses.
