ROICA™ by Asahi Kasei will exhibit at Performance Days 2026 in Munich, presenting a curated selection of textile developments that highlight performance‑driven innovation and material expertise across regions. At Hall C2, Booth R19, ROICA™ brings together leading European partners alongside two Japanese textile specialists, demonstrating how refined stretch performance enables diverse approaches to fabric design, construction, and application. From advanced warp‑knit–based structures and engineered developments to precision‑crafted materials, the ROICA™ booth offers a comprehensive view of how elastic functionality sup-ports contemporary sportswear, active, and lifestyle textiles.

Leading European partners include Brugnoli (with Explosive Cotton Plus and Explosive Micromodal entirely made in Italy); Cifra (warp knit centre of excellence); Inter Jersey Milano (stretch fabrics for high performance sportwear); Penn Solutions (advanced textile developments across sportswear, cycling and intimate apparel); Sitip (a perforamnce-oriented textile specialist); Tiba Tricot (circular and warp-initted fabrics); Imai Kigyojo Japanese company with 70 years of experience and a waro-knitting specialist) and Kawada Knitting Group (advanced tricot fabrics from Japan).

The showcased fabrics incorporate ROICA™ premium stretch fibre to deliver reliable stretch, recovery and shape stability, combined with functional features such as quick‑dry performance, UV protection, and a smooth, refined surface. Across Europe and Japan, the partners presented at the ROICA™ booth illustrate how stretch performance can be interpreted through different cultural, technical, and creative lenses. By supporting precision, comfort, durability and expressive design, ROICA™ continues to act as a material enabler for its partners, combining regionally rooted craftsmanship with forward-looking textile innovation.
