On December 8th, the founding meeting of the High Performance and High Function Fiber Branch of the China Chemical Fiber Industry Association and the industrial chain exchange seminar were held in Keqiao. Duan Xiaoping, Vice President of the China National Textile and Apparel Council, Chen Xinwei, President of the China Chemical Fiber Association, He Yanli, former Inspector of the Industry Coordination Department of the National Development and Reform Commission and member of the Advisory Committee of the China National Textile and Apparel Council, Zhang Cheng, Vice president of the China Filament Weaving Association, Wang Huaping, researcher at the School of Materials Science and Engineering of Donghua University, and Ruan Haifeng, General Manager of the North Market of Zhejiang China Textile City Group Zhang Jingbo, secretary-general of Zhejiang Textile Fabric Design Association, Wang Jiankang, chairman of Jiangsu Sanlian New Materials Co., LTD., and others attended the meeting.

Wang Yongsheng, director of the Market Promotion Department of the China Chemical Fiber Association, reviewed the background and historical evolution of the establishment of the High Performance and High Function Fiber Branch of the China Chemical Fiber Association. He stated that high-performance and high-functional fibers, as the core materials for the innovation and upgrading of the textile industry, are important engines for strengthening the resilience of the industrial chain and driving the industry towards high-end development. To build a platform for industrial exchanges and cooperation, consolidate the development synergy of the industry, and accelerate the quality improvement and efficiency enhancement of high-performance and high-functional fibers as well as their advancement to new heights, the association has adjusted the High-tech Fiber Professional Committee to the High-performance and High-Functional Fiber Branch, clearly positioning its service targets as enterprises specializing in "specialized, refined, distinctive and innovative" high-performance and differentiated/composite, functional chemical fiber products.

At the meeting, the new organizational structure of the High Performance and High Function Fibers Branch of the China Chemical Fiber Association was formed. Among them, Jiangsu Sanlian New Materials Co., Ltd. serves as the president unit of the branch, and 10 enterprises including Suzhou Chunsheng Environmental Protection Fiber Co., Ltd. serve as vice president units. Wang Yongsheng, director of the Market Promotion Department of the China Chemical Fiber Association, serves as the secretary-general, and Yuan Ye of the China Chemical Fiber Association serves as the deputy secretary-general.

Wang Jiankang, the president of the branch and the chairman of Sanlian New Materials, pointed out that material innovation, green environmental protection, healthy living, as well as changes in the industry competition landscape, have brought opportunities for the development of high-performance and high-functional fibers. In the future, the work of the branch will focus on promoting information sharing and cooperation, strengthening collaborative innovation in the industrial chain, and advancing the standardization of product technology. What is particularly important is to focus on building an independently innovative fiber brand, empower the terminal link with the brand operation of domestic fibers, and contribute more to the construction of a modern textile system.

During the special topic sharing and exchange discussion session, Wang Huaping, a researcher from the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Donghua University, Representatives from various links of the industrial chain, including Sanlian New Materials, Zhejiang Jincai, Biyinlefen, Suzhou Chunsheng, Zhejiang Chengbang, Haiyang Technology, Polydi, China Textile City, Aimu Co., LTD., Semar Group, Li-Ning Sports, Anta Sports, etc., all shared their insights on core topics such as the differentiation breakthrough of fiber enterprises, the diversified demands of terminal brands, and the path of collaborative innovation in the industrial chain . They mentioned that the coordinated development of the industrial chain is timely. With fibers as the core connection point, a multi-party joint research and development mechanism should be established to promote the industry to move towards high-end. Through in-depth cooperation among industry, academia and research institutions, all links of the industrial chain are connected to accelerate the cultivation of new quality productivity in the fiber industry. Regularly organize technical discussion meetings covering the entire industrial chain around consumer pain points, form a rapid verification and sharing mechanism, and reduce the cost of trial and error. Establish a visual and perceptible value narrative system for consumers, increase brand premium and emotional identification, etc.

Duan Xiaoping, vice president of the China National Textile and Apparel Council, said in his concluding remarks that high-performance and high-functional fiber enterprises are an important part of making the chemical fiber industry stronger and better. Based on this, he put forward two suggestions: The first is to deeply cultivate differentiated tracks. Strengthen technological research and development and process innovation, create a characteristic product matrix, and build core competitive advantages through differentiation, functionalization, multiple varieties, and small batch production. The second is to deepen the synergy of the industrial chain. Build a deep cooperation ecosystem covering additive masterbatches, fibers, fabrics and terminal brands, and open up a new path for industrial upgrading through personalized customization.
