TAK and Haier Sign MOU to expand Membrane Technology Collaboration

TAK and Haier Sign MOU to expand Membrane Technology Collaboration

Toray Advanced Materials Korea (TAK, President Kim Young-seop) has signed a MOU with China’s Haier to strengthen technological collaboration and enhance the global competitiveness of its water treatment business.The signing ceremony was held at the InterContinental Hotel in Shanghai, China. Under this agreement, TAK’s advanced reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filters will be installed in Haier’s water purifiers. This collaboration is expected to accelerate their efforts to expand sales in the rapidly growing Chinese market.In addition, they will jointly develop water purifier filters using TAK's flat sheet membrane technology to improve product performance and achieve technological differentiation. This partnership aims to reinforce their strategic alliance over the mid- to long-term and build a sustainable technological cooperation framework.Through this MOU, Toray Advanced Materials Korea (TAK) also plans to elevate its technological capabilities and expand its market share in not only China but also the global water treatment market.Since developing Korea’s first reverse osmosis membrane in 1994, TAK has provided total water treatment solutions across a wide range of applications, including household water purifiers, drinking water, ultrapure water, wastewater reuse, industrial water, and seawater desalination. In particular, TAK’s self-developed ECO series—high-capacity, high-recovery RO filters for water purifiers—has been globally recognized for its superior energy efficiency, durability, and filtration performance.Kang Chang-won, the head of the Filter Business Division at TAK stated, “Through the synergy created by the capabilities of both companies, TAK will further solidify its position in the global water treatment market.”Cu Chun-feng, the general manager of Haier’s Water Purification Business, added, “This collaboration will mark a turning point for the Chinese water purification industry, transitioning from quantitative growth to qualitative advancement.”

TAK develops 'SNOLENE’, a High-Performance Cooling Yarn

TAK develops 'SNOLENE’, a High-Performance Cooling Yarn

Toray Advanced Materials Korea (TAK) (CEO Kim Young-seop) announced that it has developed 'SNOLENE', a cooling yarn that is harmless to the human body, using its proprietary technology.SNOLENE features excellent thermal conductivity and cooling performance, allowing it to quickly disperse heat upon contact with the skin and provide an immediate cooling sensation. Wearing products made with SNOLENE can reduce the perceived temperature by approximately 3 to 6°C during the summer.The yarn also offers outstanding stain resistance, making it safe and hygienic. Its low moisture absorption allows sweat to evaporate quickly and helps the fabric dry fast, maintaining comfort. Additionally, it is extremely lightweight and soft to the touch, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, such as bedding and garments that come into direct contact with the skin.TAK official stated, “Demand for cooling fibers is rapidly increasing due to ongoing heatwaves and climate change,” adding, “TAK will continue to build trust by proactively addressing customer needs through the development of innovative materials that align with ESG trends.”
