At April’s International Home Furnishings Market in High Point, DuPont Textiles & Interiors (DTI) brings the latest innovations in home furnishings and textiles to a new combined showroom at the Market Square Textile Tower, demonstrating the company’s commitment to the industry. This marks the first time that all the DTI brands will appear together in one showroom at High Point. The February creation of DTI further highlights the ability of DuPont to leverage the innovative technologies within of each of its ingredient brands for new applications and creative developments in apparel and home textiles. DTI draws on such brands as Lycra®, Stainmaster® and Teflon® to create new concepts in home furnishings, and the company quickly has mobilized with greater flexibility to answer consumer needs, and drive function and fashion trends. "When considered together, DuPont technology and brands can provide countless solutions for consumers today. Our showroom will beautifully underscore just how many possibilities there are for our customers to benefit from our innovations," said Dave Trerotola, global director of sales and marketing, Home & Industrial Textiles. "By combining our offerings we can bring one-stop shopping and development to the industry." In the showroom at 382 Market Square, six displays will illustrate the breadth of DuPont innovation for home. The company will be showing two fresh new upholstery applications for Lycra® - Leather with Lycra® and Irish Linen with Lycra®, both of which enhance functionality for designers and fashion, fit and quality for consumers. Additionally, new offerings will be featured for Teflon®, Stainmaster® and Comforel® fiberfill. With Microfibres®, DuPont will show new styles of the MicroSuede® upholstery fabric lines.
