Product Development

inTEXive has acquired experience in developing new products in various fields. As technical textiles and composites are relatively new materials, inTEXive’s goal is to support the development of such industries in the MENA region. Our expert product development team can help in the design and development of new products which utilize these advanced materials. We can assist your product development activities at any stage from conception to commercialization.

Our partner institutions are equipped with state-of-the-art prototyping and testing equipment for technical textiles, nonwovens, and fiber composites. Moreover, our team of engineers are well versed in process development, pilot production, and scaling-up the production process.

Our services include:

  • 3D CAD Modeling and Product Design
  • Prototype Development
  • Product Evaluation
  • Process Development and Evaluation
  • Pilot Production
