Souther Africa textiles import from China increased greatly

Friday, August 5th, 2011

With the expiration of textiles quota for import from China, import of textiles products have increased greatly.

Non-knitted garment import from China has gone up by 33.1% compared with the same time in the past year while knitted garment import enjoys an increase of 10.34%.

It is recoginized by the public media that the quota system for textiles products from China is a total failure as it has not increased competitiveness of Southe Africa textile products. On the contrary, textile products from other Asian countries stormed into South Africa. Such protection does not necessarily help to make South Africa more competitive.

Introduction

Why COOLMAX® fabric

Why choose COOLMAX® fabric?  For the simple reason of staying dry and comfortable when you start to perspire. 

Sweating is one of the body’s natural mechanisms to stay cool. Engineered with special technology to wick moisture and enhance drying, COOLMAX® fabric helps you stay dry and energized – exactly what you need to feel comfortable not only during the day, but also through your toughest workouts.

Since 1986, COOLMAX® fabric has been delivering benefits to help top athletes push harder and longer.  Today, COOLMAX® fabric appeals to the fashion conscious who prefer a cool, soft and high performance fabric that fits every lifestyle. COOLMAX® fabric is the confident, sophisticated choice for active consumers.

How it works

  1. COOLMAX® fabric pulls moisture away from your skin.
  2. COOLMAX® fabric absorbs and spreads moisture out across fabric to enhance evaporative drying rate.
  3. Air moves in to keep your body cool and dry.

Interesting facts

<Moisture management + breathability = total comfort>

Breathability – The performance of COOLMAX® fabric is inherent in the structure itself.  The specially engineered fibers allow fabric designers to create high-performance fabrics that are soft, breathable, and moisture wicking.

Easy care – Garments made with COOLMAX® fabric are machine washable and dryable.  However, fabric softener and chlorine bleach should not be used.  Some garments may require special care because of the style, not the fabric.  It is best to read the care label inside the garment. 

Energy saving – COOLMAX® fabric is so quick drying that you actually reduce dryer use!  Just hang wet clothes and be amazed at how fast they dry.  Great for traveling, too!

Year-round comfort – In cold weather, COOLMAX® fabric is a great first layer, especially during high aerobic activities.  It keeps chill-inducing perspiration away from your skin and moves it to the outer layers for evaporation.  You stay warm when your body is dry.
