Taiwan gets a great stage and sales opportunity for its innovative fabrics made of recycled plastic bottles at FIFA World Cup 2014. FIFA estimates that the 2014 World Cup will generate US$40 billion in revenues, and with the apparel industry the major beneficiary, a potential jackpot awaits for the Taiwanese enterprises that have turned waste into gold.
The fabric traces its origins back to the 1990s, when Taiwanese producers needed to respond to declining orders that were being diverted to China to take advantage of its cheap labor.
