Cordura Advanced Fabrics is set to dazzle visitors at this year’s IDEF international defence industry fair in Istanbul, Turkey, as it presents a remarkable range of responsible uniform solutions and cutting-edge military and tactical equipment. The event, running from July 25 to 28, promises to showcase the company’s dedication to innovation and sustainable practices.
With a proud legacy spanning 55 years, Cordura has cemented its reputation as a pioneer in durable and long-lasting fiber technologies. At IDEF, the company will highlight its revolutionary Cordura Nyco fabric, known for its impressive resistance to flame spread, boasting a 3-5 times slower rate than traditional polyester/cotton alternatives. Notably, this remarkable fabric also outperforms them in abrasion resistance testing, setting new standards for durability and safety in military and law enforcement uniforms.
Taking their technology to new heights, Cordura will introduce the Cordura Nyco Extreme fabric, crafted with Invista T420HT, which marks the company’s most robust nylon 6.6 staple fiber to date. This breakthrough development promises enhanced performance and unparalleled strength, perfectly tailored for the rigorous demands of tactical missions.
TrueLock Solution Dyed Nylon 6.6 (SDN) is another groundbreaking offering that will take center stage at the event. Cordura’s SDN not only offers unmatched color consistency lot-to-lot but also ensures long-lasting color durability, significantly extending the lifespan of the products. Available in a spectrum of seven military shades, this solution-dyed technology will transform the way military personnel and law enforcement approach their uniform color management.
Visitors to the Cordura booth will also be treated to a comprehensive collection of lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying performance fabrics, catering to a diverse range of military applications. From combat uniforms to ballistic vests, packs, load carriage equipment, webbing and trims, footwear, base layers, combat shirts, headwear, and seat covers, Cordura has it all covered.
Erik Walker, the Cordura global military segment leader, expressed his enthusiasm for the event: “We continue to invest and expand our capabilities to include solutions that are not only durable but lead down the path to using fewer resources to make products our customers value. We continue listening to the demands of the market, identifying unmet needs, solving problems, and utilizing innovation to create cutting-edge solutions to meet the ever-changing needs of global militaries and law enforcement.”
Cordura’s commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly manufacturing processes stands as a testament to the company’s dedication to both innovation and environmental stewardship. As the defense industry looks toward more responsible practices, Cordura’s showcase at IDEF promises to be a milestone event that will shape the future of military and tactical equipment.
