Vietnamese fire-resistant fabrics to be exported to US, India

According to the plan, the first shipment produced by Vinatex and UK-based Coats, will consist of 5,000 metres of fire-resistant fabrics for Indonesia, 50,000 for the Middle East, and 5,000 for India.

Vinatex and J.&P. Coats Limited inked a strategic contract to develop fire-resistant fabrics and garments. Under the contract, Vinatex leveraged Coats’ closed-loop technology process to produce fire-resistant textiles, meeting stringent industry standards.

These fabrics serve sectors such as welding and mining which have great demand for robust protective gear.

Coats, in turn, oversees technology copyrights, product design, and global distribution to ensure competitive offerings.

Their goal in the first year is to bring high-quality fire-resistant fabric products to the market with a value of US$5 million.

With its pivotal role in textile exports, Vinatex aims to achieve significant revenue targets, signaling a promising trajectory for the partnership, said the representative.

Previously, Vinatex and Kova Group jointly produced Vinatex – Kova fire-resistant fabrics, using their respective textile dyeing and Nano technologies.
