High Tech Brings New Life To Swiss Textile Industry

The business community, 07 / 17, has a long tradition of textile tradition and innovation. Swiss companies are competing in the new textile world that meets the fine technology of everyday fabrics.

There are many buzz solar power projects in Switzerland, which aim to fly the first solar powered aircraft around 2014.

Then who will consider what clothes the pilot will wear?

These things will not be the standard flying uniforms.

Scientists have developed a unique temperature control system to integrate into such uniforms.

Marcel habson, project manager of the protection and physiology and advanced fiber Bureau of Swiss Confederation's materials science and technology laboratory, said: "because Fiji is not able to provide climate control energy in the cockpit, we have developed a multi-functional system.

Pilots are allowed to adjust their temperature according to flight conditions. "

This is only one of many high-tech textile innovation projects in Swiss Confederation's materials science and technology laboratory.

In order to promote the research of product promotion in Switzerland, the experimenters collaborate with the industry.

For example, the Swiss Confederation materials science and technology laboratory has recently developed an air conditioning bulletproof vest with private partners, including the private Nick textile company, which specializes in refrigeration garments and is developing bulletproof vests.

Tested by Zurich police officers, this bulletproof vest contains two water filling liners and ventilation systems, which can effectively cool the body and reduce the temperature of two times.

The product has high demand, especially from the tropical countries, such as Saudi Arabia and India.

The company's next step is to scale up the operation of the product and begin large-scale production.
