On February 27, 2014, Sympatex will showcase its products and technologies at the International Shoe Fair in Düsseldorf. Balancing technology and ecological sustainability, Sympatex has introduced several designs with a particular focus on growing children, as well as urban and outdoor environments. The Munich-based Sympatex team will participate in this globally leading shoe fair (Hall 6 / Booth 6E07), demonstrating Sympatex’s strong significance in the footwear industry.
At the fair, Sympatex will present new products from many partners, such as Richter, Ricosta, D?umling, V?gele, and Tamaris. In addition, new partners have joined forces with Sympatex, adopting its 100% recyclable and “guaranteed green” Sympatex membrane. Stadium — a new client from the UK, the sports shoe manufacturer Kangaroos, and the American company Crocs will collaborate with Sympatex to enhance the functionality of their footwear.
Sympatex’s membrane offers excellent breathability, 100% windproof, and 100% waterproof properties. At the 2013 Friedrichshafen Outdoor Show, Sympatex also exhibited the highly competitive Moisture-tech. Shoes made with Moisture-tech technology effectively wick moisture away from the feet, ensuring dry and comfortable wear even after strenuous activity.
“At this year’s GDS expo, Sympatex will display its full range of products and all its technologies,” said Mr. Michael Kamm, CEO of SympaTex.
“We will place stronger focus on our footwear business. With our innovative product technologies, craftsmanship, and core values of environmental protection and sustainable development, we stand out among our outstanding competitors. We still see significant growth opportunities in this market,” said Mr. Michael Kamm, CEO of SympaTex.
