Interlinings have, for a long time, given garments their shape, strength, style and soul. Today, as apparel manufacturing becomes faster, more automated and sustainability-driven, this once low-profile segment, vital to performancewear and technical textiles, is finally stepping into the spotlight. India, with its growing talent, scale and market potential, is now at the heart of this shift. For Freudenberg, a global leader in apparel interlinings since 1948, the country has always been central to its growth. For our Cover Story of this issue, we bring for you excerpts from our exclusive interview with Jonathan Oh, Senior VP and GM, Global Apparel Division, Freudenberg Performance Materials where he discusses about their recent expansion of Chennai plant, the factors driving this ambitious expansion, the role of sustainability in shaping the company’s growth and so on.
