Belgium Clothing Industry

Apparel Search world clothing industry directory — apparel, fashion and textile resources for Belgium.

This directory brings together the apparel, fashion and textile industry of Belgium: the fashion department of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, whose graduates drew international attention to Antwerp designers from the beginning of the eighties, garment manufacturers in Tongeren and Paal-Beringen, leather and ostrich leather companies in Brussels, a polypropylene yarn manufacturer in Deinze, commission dyeing and finishing, curtain and upholstery fabric production, and dealers in second-hand sewing and textile machinery in Brussels and Ieper.

Belgium's listings span the whole textile chain. At the fibre end, Oostrotex NV in Deinze manufactures polypropylene based yarns in flat, air textured and false twist textured forms for weaving and knitting, and Steverlynck NV offers commission dyeing and finishing of textile yarns and fabrics plus contract coating services. In Brussels, one import-export and manufacturing company produces fabrics for curtains, Jacquard upholstery, voile, satin, roller blinds, waterproof fabrics, bed linen and mixed fabrics, while two related Brussels listings cover ostrich leather, leather handbags and small leather goods. Two machinery dealers buy and sell second-hand equipment, from sewing machines by makers such as Durkopp, Rimoldi and Kuris to weaving looms and complete textile plants.
