At April 1st - 2nd 2009, one of the most important workwear exhibitions in UK took place: it was the Workwear & Corporate Clothing Show. Lauffenmühle showed the current collection and especially the new articles of the product line Relax: industrial washable elastic articles, made with the fibre XLA by Dow.

Number of exhibitors was about the same as last year - the numbers of visitors went slightly back, due to the current market situation, but was still surprisingly good. Lauffenmühle showed - beside complete product range - especially the enlargements of the successful productline Relax: the article Bi-Stretch Relax, launched in november 2008 was said to be very interesting as well as the newly developed Texas Relax, which was launched at the show: an industrial washable Denim-look-alike. A potential customer told us: "...articles with character of Denim, which look really good and which - beside that - are able to stand the stress of industrial laundry, are hard to find in the workwear market - we've been searching for that for a long time..."
