[Edaily Reporter Shin Ha-yeon ] DI Dongil ( DI DONGIL(001530)) announced on the 19th that it will participate in “Preview in Seoul 2026 (PIS 2026),” a domestic textile and fashion materials exhibition taking place at COEX in Seoul through the 21st, to showcase its high-performance, high-value-added textile materials.

In the “Natural Meet Performance Collection,” the company will showcase its “Performance Cotton” product line, which combines the inherent comfort and softness of cotton with functional features. The lineup includes water-repellent double jersey, light-reflective fabrics, moisture-wicking fabrics that quickly absorb and dry sweat, everyday water-repellent and water-resistant fabrics, and thermochromic fabrics where patterns disappear at specific temperatures.

The “New Texture Update” section introduces a variety of knit products, including pique fabrics with a three-dimensional texture, as well as ponte, flat-back rib, and scuba fabrics. French terry and fleece fabrics, commonly used in casual wear such as sweatshirts and hoodies, will also be on display.

In addition, the company will showcase fabrics featuring various designs—such as yarn-dyed stripes, heritage checks, herringbone, houndstooth, and piece-dyed patterns—as well as eco-friendly materials that address the global market’s demand for sustainability.

A DI DONGIL representative stated, “This exhibition serves as an opportunity to introduce to domestic and international customers the competitive edge in textile materials that DI DONGIL has built up over many years,” adding, “We will continue to develop and supply differentiated, high-performance, and high-value-added textile materials in response to the changing needs of our clients.”
