Concept III Textiles, Red Bank, N.J., and China-based Dry-Tex Textile Co. Ltd. have partnered to offer customers the ability to create lightweight, supple "packages" comprising two or three layers of performance textiles.
Dry-Tex, founded in 2005, specializes in the production of ultra-lightweight laminations and works with customers to develop multilayered fabrics using their own or locally or otherwise sourced fabrics and technologies. Customers may also work with Concept III to develop fabric concepts.
Dry-Tex offers quick turnaround including accelerated fabric sourcing, lab dips and sampling. The company recently teamed with another local textile company and is in the process of installing new equipment and expanding facilities, with expectations of tripling its laminating capacity.
