A successful event
FilSpecTM was pleased to attend the international Expo Hightex trade show at Montréal’s Place Bonaventure on April 4 and 5 as an exhibitor.
During the gala on April 4, FilSpecTM took home two prizes: a recognition award as a founding member of the NSERC Industrial Chair on Innovative Technical Textiles, as well as the Innovation in Partnership Award for our project involving the development of recently launched, new flame-resistant fabrics and thermal barriers for firefighter apparel.
Everyone was buzzing about FilSpecTM, with many having already heard about our recent innovations through our partners and social media outlets. The event exceeded the expectations of our team members, who had the pleasure of meeting key players from different sectors of the industry hailing from places as varied as Mexico, France, the U.S., Ontario, Western Canada, and of course Québec. Our booth drew a huge crowd!
