Wool research institute to create top quality materials

Write: Zelenka [2011-08-03]
With an aim to develop high-end materials for China s fashion industry, a wool textile research institute has been set up in the port city of Longkou in northeastern Shandong province.
The institute has been established by Xi'an Polytechnic University in collaboration with Shandong Nanshan Textile Apparel Company.
Currently, China imports most of the high quality wool as about 80 percent of its locally produced wool is of low quality. The non-availability of good quality wool impedes the growth of fashion industry in the country.
