DuPont Imaging Technologies and Hyosung Corporation announced their success in a cooperation to present an innovative offering to the world of textiles made possible by DuPont Artistri digital printing for textiles technology and the latest spandex technology from creora.

The cooperation was driven by the trend for more decorative fabrics in lingerie and more sophisticated swimwear prints, along with the market need for quicker response and custom design in shorter runs.

Beautiful fabrics of creora printed by the Artistri 2020 printer were introduced for the first time in the Hyosung booth at the Interfiliere Lyon intimate apparel show.

Visitors to the booth were able to experience the cutting edge capabilities of direct-to-fabric printing with Artistri by viewing and handling unique custom-designed swimwear and lingerie concept garments made from a variety of fabrics including a super lightweight fabric using fine denier creora spandex.

“This cooperation was the perfect union of technology and fabric innovation and we are extremely excited with the results,” said Michael Lazzara, market development manager, DuPont Artistri.“Artistri is a result of DuPont expertise in color science, digital ink development and the company's long history of innovation in the synthetic fibers industry that began more than 70 years ago.

DuPont is uniquely able to understand what it takes to create beautiful printing on fabric, which is evident in the fantastic printed fabrics resulting from the collaboration,” Lazzara said.
