Hi, everyone! Welcome back. As you may have noticed, we lost some content recently. I’m working on back-filling that so the information I posted is still out there in the world. Starting with:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

This trade publication <\/a>also has a great website<\/a>, which announces interesting new industrial projects, business information*, upcoming trade shows, and provides a list of resources. One resource of particular use to the industry and the FIT Library, the annual Buyer’s Guide.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A quick flip through the Buyer’s Guide shows the huge range covered by the term “Specialty Fabrics”. From the term “yarn”: anti-static; cored; cut-resistant; nylon, textured; nylon, solution-dyed; polyethylene, non-wicking;<\/p>\n

And under “end products”: bags, ballast; bags, tote; canopies, marine; curtains, marine; curtains, welding; houses, ice fishing; liners, pit and pond; tarpaulins, solar agricultural; tents, circus or big tops; It really is a reminder that textiles are everywhere around us.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This title is an official publication of the Industrial Fabrics Association International<\/a>, which is the largest textile trade association in the world. It was begun in 1912, as the National Tent and Awning Association. This group is a non-for-profit organization that represents companies involved with specialty (usually non-fashion related) fiber, fabric, equipment, and related end products. This organization publishes several other titles we have here, Marine Fabricator<\/em><\/a>, Geosynthetics<\/a><\/em>, Fabric Architecture<\/em><\/a>, and InTents<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This title continues an older one, Industrial Fabric Products Review<\/a><\/em>. This older magazine tended to put innovative textiles on its cover, and I pulled a few cool images for you.<\/p>\n
