Innovation

In a fast moving globalized market, companies must be able to swiftly adapt by bringing forward innovation, creativity, and responsibility. With over 25 years of textile research and development, innovation is our DNA. It activates change and allowed us to become frontrunners in the production of natural based knitted fabrics, providing sustainable values and innovative materials.

It all happens in our factory, a smart hub where “magic happens”, where a wide range of natural based, smart materials are created in a responsible, fully transparent way. Over the years it became a pivotal epicenter, a kernel and network between Technological Centers, Universities, and Knowledge Centers.

Corporate support, investments, partnerships and market research has turned TINTEX into an influential player in materials and processes which constantly innovates with new levels of service to the fashion industry.

aWaRe
aWaRe

The aWare project strives for advancing R&D of innovative textile products in the circular economy. aWaRe – the acronym of Aiming for Water and Waste Reduction, Reuse and Recycling – means developing recycled and bio-enriched knits with recycled wastewater.

PICASSo
PICASSo

PICASSo gives life to responsibly-coloured fabrics using natural dyes extracted from different types of natural plants resources. The project envisioned and applied a process that uses only compounds of natural origin and is salt-free in the production of functional and sustainable textiles in a variety of fibres, such as cotton, recycled synthetics and wool.

texbion
texbion

The texbion project is aimed at developing textile structures from synthetic fibres made of organic thermoplastic polymers that can be used in conventional textile processes and dyed using natural dyes and sustainable processes.

Têxteis Responsivos
Têxteis Responsivos

Têxteis Responsivos envisioned the development of textiles that adapt according to external stimuli, achieving natural multi-way stretching, water repellency, high breathability and extraordinary comfort. The R&D of new textile structures, coating and finishing technologies has proved essential to materialize breakthrough textile solutions.

TrueHue
TrueHue

The goal of the TrueHue project is to implement Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy technology and predictive mathematical models and apply them to conventional dyeing methods. Through this, it will be possible to obtain fabrics with superior quality and to significantly reduce the total amount of time and resources consumed.

PluriProTech
PluriProTech

With the PluriProtech project, the aim is to develop an innovative solution against Nuclear, Biological, Chemical and Radiological agents, based on an active multilayer system capable of acting as a barrier and simultaneously as an element of degradation of harmful agents, maximizing the level of protection without compromising the comfort provided to the user.

Blue Project
Blue Project

Blue Project aims to integrate a fish product into the school menu that is appealing to the students, and to innovate in the use of fish leftovers, through the development of new food solutions and textile products.

TexBoost
TexBoost

Less Commodities, More Specialities is the motto behind the TexBoost project. TINTEX’s work focused on the development of a textile alternative to animal leather by combining plant waste and other industrial byproducts with biopolymers to achieve reduced environmental impact of differentiated and high-quality products.

giatex
giatex

The giatex project aims to promote the reduction of water consumption in textile dyeing and finishing processes, through the application/introduction of conventional measures to minimize water consumption and innovative technologies that allow water reduction.

Texp@ct
Texp@ct

The Texp@ct project aims to digitize the textile and clothing industry through the adoption of digital technologies and solutions in the production process, combining robotics and automation features and developing advanced cloud-based platforms for live feedback on supplier-client relationships.
