Textile Institute Awards Presented To FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Textile Institute awards presented to.... Manchester, UK – 2 January 2014 During the Textile Institute Parliamentary Lunch hosted by The Lord Haskel CompTI at the House of Lords, London, UK, which took place late in 2013, the Institute presented its annual Medals and Awards for 2012.

The award in 2012 was presented to Lenzing AG and received on behalf of the company by Mr Andreas Dorner, global marketing director. A brief biography was presented to the audience about the organisation. Lenzing AG is a sustainable long-term business with a clear commitment to environmentally friendly technology. The fibre producer is an international group with Austrian roots. The global leader in cellulose fibre products, supplying industrial and consumer companies worldwide. Lenzing supplies the global textile and nonwovens industry with high-quality man-made cellulose fibres, and the company’s environmental focus dates back to 1975. The Lenzing Group manufactures all three man-made cellulose fibre generations on a large industrial scale under one roof – from the classic viscose to modal and lyocell (TENCEL®) fibres. It is a leader in innovation, technology and quality and committed to the principle of sustainable management and very high environmental standards. The Textile Institute Innovation Award 2012 Inaugurated in 1990 The Textile Institute Innovation Award is given to organisations for outstanding achievement in enhancing international textile interests through creativity, commerce, marketing or economic development. Mr Sadami Sakai, was invited to accept the award for 2012 on behalf Kato Tech Company Ltd which was established in 1961, in Kyoto, Japan. Kato Tech Co Ltd’s achievement is great and obvious in the world. Innovation is at its outstanding achievement in enhancing international textile interests through creativity and precise equipment’s that Kato Tech Co Ltd has developed over a half century. Kato Tech equipment has been invented for the objective evaluation of properties for fibrous materials (from a single fibre to fabrics) since being established in 1961. In the 1960’s every company, institute, scientist and technologist had sought comfortable materials/clothes and with an objective evaluation method. Consequently, Kato Tech company has provided the basis not only to connect products, stores, scientist and consumers, but also to connect textile materials and human senses through their objective measuring system. The company has enriched the condition of a factory producing system and research verification and has improved the resultant clothing life. Up to date more than two thousand systems have been placed within organisations, schools and universities in over 50 countries. The company has recently introduced new areas in medical and in fibre spinning fields. Kato Tech Nano fiber Electro spinning Unit (NEU) is now popular and it can produce Nano fibres from 50nm Continued...... to 800nm in diameter. The biggest feature of the NEU is its ability to use electro spinning to easily produce Nano fibres using small amounts of polymer. Currently, the use of Nano fibres in the IT, biotech, healthcare and fabrics industries is expected to increase dramatically, taking advantage of the increased surface area and fineness of materials and textiles made from Nano fibres. The Textile Institute New Materials Award Established in 2010 to celebrate the centenary of The Textile Institute, the award is presented to an individual or organisation demonstrating outstanding advances in technical textiles and their application. The awardee in 2012 was Dr Masukuni Mori, director of Mori Engineering Consultant Office. Dr Mori had been working and studying textile technology, dyeing, fabric handling and mechanical properties of wool fabrics since 1950, having worked at Tsuyakin Kogyo Co Ltd up to 1996. After retiring from the company, he worked as the Japan Professional Engineer, receiving a qualified energy manager’s license, he established Mori Engineering Consultant Office. He has been actively involved in the development of new textile materials not only in Japan but also in many countries: South American countries, China, Korea and Italy. His knowledge and experience about textiles, especially in dyeing and finishing of wool fabrics, have been absolutely imperative. His policy of creation textiles is for more comfortable, more beautiful and more eco-friendly garments. Fabric treatment methods produced by his scientific and distinguished achievements are: 1) excellent super- black wool fabrics 2) the anti-felting treatment by argon–plasma not using chlorine and resin, and controlling

    NOVEMBER 1944 P 1 2 1 THE JOURNAL OF THE TEXTILE INSTITUTE THE BLEACHING OF JUTE FOR TEXTILE PURPOSES B y B . P . R i d g e and A . H . L i t t l e . SUMMARY Details are given of methods that have been found satisfactory for bleaching jute materials to different degrees without undue loss of weight or strength. For mild bleaching, treatment is suggested with cold or warm hypochlorite solutions that are maintained in an alkaline condition. Cold alkaline permanganate fol­ lowed by a bisulphite clearing process, and hot sodium chlorite under slightly acid conditions also give reasonable results. For better shades a hot peroxide bleach may be given after an alkaline hypochlorite treatment, but for uniformity it is best first to scour the material under mild conditions with a soda ash solution at 65° to 750 C., using about 7-5 per cent, of ash on the weight of jute, whilst still further improvement in shade is obtained if the scouring bath contains a small proportion of peroxide. Other methods that may be used are the ordinary peroxide bleach without previous hypochlorite treatment as normally used for cotton goods, or alternate steepings first in a dilute alkaline hypochlorite and then in a hot solution of sodium hydrosulphite or bisulphite. White or nearly white jute can be obtained only if substantially all the lignin is removed, when the wet strength is seriously reduced. Information is recorded on the bleaching of yarn in package form and on the processing of mixtures of jute with cotton, linen, wool and rayon.

Introduction A visitor to any large technical library in the heart of the textile industries, on discovering the collection of textile books in stock, would be astonished to realise how small a space they occupy. The Textile Institute, for example, has most of the live books in English, but can accommodate them all in one small room. The Shirley Institute has for 24 years pursued the policy of acquiring every book on the cotton, rayon and silk industries that could be secured, whether old or new, and in whatever language, and yet the shelf space now occupied by books—apart from bound volumes of periodicals— is only some 160 feet.

Knight Professor of Design and Computation Textile Precision for Customized Assemblies by Lavender Tessmer Submitted to the Department of Architecture in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Architecture Studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ABSTRACT With the potential to configure patterns and materials with stitch-level control, textiles are becoming an increasingly desirable method of producing mass customized items. However, current textile machines lack the ability to transfer three-dimensional information between digital models and production with the same level of control and accuracy as other machines. Designers are accustomed to generating three-dimensional objects in a digital model then converting these into instructions for machines such as 3D printers or laser cutters, but current design interfaces and production machines for textiles provide no comparable workflow for producing items that rely on precise control of physical size and fit.
