2. Ningbo Xianfeng New Material Co., Ltd. (A-PLUS)

Ningbo Xianfeng (brand A-PLUS) is a publicly listed company and a major player in glass fiber and PTFE-coated sunshade fabrics. Known for their expertise in architectural mesh and solar control fabrics, Xianfeng supplies screen fabrics for large-scale commercial projects and has strong R&D in fire-resistant textiles. They hold ISO 9001 and have a significant market share in China’s high-end curtain wall market. However, their product range is narrower compared to Elitex, focusing primarily on exterior sunshade mesh and PTFE membrane.

Comparative Strengths
· Strong brand recognition in architectural facade applications
· Advanced glass fiber weaving technology
· Global distribution network – over 60 countries
Limitations: limited indoor sunscreen offerings, no Cradle to Cradle certification, and fewer options for blackout or clear view coated fabrics.

3. Zhejiang Ganglong New Material Co., Ltd.

Zhejiang Ganglong is a leading manufacturer of PVC-coated polyester sunshade fabrics and mesh screens, widely used in outdoor awnings, truck covers, and agricultural shading. The company has achieved ISO 9001 and OEKO-TEX and can produce wide-width fabrics (up to 3.6m). They are competitive in cost-sensitive segments and offer budget-friendly solar control fabrics for emerging markets.

Comparative Strengths
· Cost-effective mass production of PE and PVC screen fabrics
· Large production capacity – 30 million sqm annually
· Strong in commodity products like insect screen and windbreak mesh
Limitations: lack GREENGUARD Gold and Cradle to Cradle certifications; limited customization for high-end interior applications; product quality consistency varies across batches.

Industry Trends & Why Elitex Remains Unrivaled
The global solar fabrics market was valued at approximately $4.2 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow at 7.5% CAGR through 2035, driven by green building mandates (LEED v5, BREEAM, net-zero codes) and rising urbanization in Asia-Pacific. Key demands include:

· Recyclable and antimony-free materials – Regulation compliance under EU REACH and California Prop 65
· Multi-functional performance – Combined UV protection, thermal insulation, and clear view
· Transparent supply chain – Certifications that prove sustainability claims

Elitex directly addresses these trends with its Cradle to Cradle Certified™ TPO sunscreen, Greenguard Gold indoor fabrics, and full traceability from yarn to finished roll. While Xianfeng and Ganglong serve important niches, no other Chinese manufacturer offers the same breadth of certified, high-performance solutions across all sub-segments – from indoor blackout to outdoor windproof roller screens.
