In recent years, concepts such as the SDGs and ESG have garnered widespread attention worldwide, and growing numbers of people are focusing on environmental protection and sustainability—textile manufacturing is no exception. Since its founding in 1976, HERMIN TEXTILE has specialized in natural?fiber fabrics. As a pioneer in eco?textiles, the company applies biomimetic design principles and collaborates with markets around the globe to drive green innovation. Guided by its mission of “Green Innovation, Infinite Future,” HERMIN TEXTILE continues to lead the sustainable?development and eco?textile revolution, committed to delivering high?performance, sustainable products that meet stringent environmental standards.
Founding and Evolution of HERMIN TEXTILE
HERMIN TEXTILE was established during Taiwan’s economic transformation and export boom. At that time, the textile industry was flourishing, and founder Mr. Chen Wen-Jin built HERMIN TEXTILE’s reputation on cotton—his chosen natural fiber—earning the company an unshakeable position amid fierce competition. To this day, HERMIN TEXTILE remains true to its origins, continuing to focus on natural?fiber fabrics. The company integrates advanced natural?fiber processing technologies with Taiwan’s functional?fiber supply capabilities to deepen and broaden its product offerings. Through its R&D team and professional fabric?design division, HERMIN develops bespoke, signature materials for its clients.
Two Groundbreaking Technologies Define New Sustainability Standards
To advance its sustainability goals, HERMIN TEXTILE consistently invests in research and innovation. Two of its hallmark technologies have laid the foundation for eco?textiles:
BNS?Bouncy Technology:
By employing a specialized weaving method, BNS?Bouncy imparts natural stretch to cotton, Tencel?, and Modal? fibers without adding any elastic yarns. The resulting fabrics are fully biodegradable and certified to GOTS?5.0 and Oeko?Tex 100 standards, demonstrating the fusion of sustainability and functionality.
EZ?Dye Technology:
EZ?Dye revolutionizes the dyeing process, reducing steam and water usage by over 80%, alkali and salt consumption by 70%, and dye usage by more than 50%. This not only enhances colorfastness and durability but also significantly lessens environmental impact.
Fabric Excellence: Signature Designs and Application Scenarios
Building on these innovations, HERMIN TEXTILE offers a range of representative fabric lines tailored to market and brand needs:
Natural Functional Fabrics:
Centered on biomimicry, these fabrics use pure natural materials—such as cotton, wool, linen, cellulose, and palm fibers—combined with innovative weave structures, yarn architectures, and advanced equipment to maximize each material’s inherent functional properties. The result: high?performance, eco?friendly fabrics without synthetic fibers.
Eco Friendly Fabric:
These lines incorporate organic cotton, recycled nylon/polyester, polypropylene (PP), and other sustainable fibers. Environmentally benign finishing agents and processes are selected to minimize ecological footprint throughout production.
Outdoor/Performance Fabric:
To meet diverse requirements, the fabrics provide stretch, wrinkle resistance, waterproofing, windproofing, down resistance, mosquito repellency, and abrasion resistance; they use eco?friendly, fluorine?free water repellents and comply with the international GOTS?5.0 standard.
Knitted Textile:
Hermin’s knitted textiles seamlessly combine innovative knitted structures with sustainable materials, such as organic cotton, Tencel?, recycled polyester, recycled nylon, and more. These stretch knits, merging advanced knitting techniques with eco-friendly inputs, are perfect for both indoor and outdoor sportswear. Whether you are looking for fabrics for active wear or outdoor activities, our knitted textiles will meet your needs. Additionally, we apply various eco-functional finishes to optimize performance while maintaining environmental responsibility.
Fashion Apparel Fabric:
With over 40 years of experience in ready-to-wear fabric, HERMIN TEXTILE blends style and function to enhance garment value. Popular offerings include jacquard, dobby fabric, and refined Shirting.
Building a Green Supply Chain with Global Brands
Leveraging its differentiated natural?function fabrics and intelligent supply?chain services, HERMIN TEXTILE has successfully penetrated the high?end international market. Leading brands such as Ralph?Lauren, Burberry, J.?Crew, and Filson now use HERMIN’s BNS?Bouncy, water?repellent BananaTex?, and Cotton Shell? series—boosting both their eco?credentials and performance appeal. Additionally, HERMIN actively participates in Performance Days, Première Vision, TITAS, and other global textile exhibitions, showcasing its expertise and innovations to elevate brand visibility and industry influence.
Sustainability Vision: Smart Platforms, Circular Economy, Global Impact
In response to the textile industry’s sustainability imperative, HERMIN TEXTILE is accelerating three strategic initiatives:
AI & Mobile Platform Expansion:
TEXTIP integrates machine learning into fabric design and sourcing, and will be offered as a SaaS (Software as a Service) solution to unite designers, brands, and suppliers in transparent, collaborative innovation.
Circular Economy & Material Innovation:
BananaTex? is the world’s first durable, water?repellent fabric made entirely from banana plant fibers. Its applications span bags and outdoor goods, while contributing to land restoration and community economic development.
Transparency, Openness, and International Sustainability Collaboration:
Each year, HERMIN TEXTILE showcases innovations like its Plastic?Free Performance Fabric at Performance Days Munich, Première Vision, TITAS, and other exhibitions—sharing circular?economy best practices and promoting green manufacturing.
Over the next three to five years, will integrate its AI platform, material innovations, and green certifications to expand its global supply network and strengthen its brand influence, leading the textile industry toward an intelligent, ecological, and sustainable future.
