Trevira 2005: Business stable despite difficult market situation
The general trend in the European textile industry towards ongoing consolidation has not bottomed out yet. The final abolishment of quotas in the textile industry and increased imports from China have imposed further pressure on manufacturers.
The man-made fibres industry has, in addition, to cope with continuously rising raw material prices. It is no longer possible to produce commodities, sell them at competitive prices in Europe, and make a profit. The future of Europe's textile industry lies in the development and production of hi-tech materials, new end-uses and in new markets for its specialties.
Trevira, therefore, started some time ago the process of reorganizing its production and its product portfolio to include a growing proportion of specialties. In the long run Trevira will replace commodities production with products coming from its owner Reliance in India. At the same time Trevira will stand by its brand in this segment, maintaining both services and customized product range for customers. Reliance and Trevira will in addition create value for customers of both companies by virtue of combined R&D initiatives. This will make both companies more profitable and create synergies.
