Fone Tai Six Core Product
Fone Tai specializes in developing high-performance, multifunctional fabrics across six major product lines:
Recycled PET Fabrics
Each year, billions of PET bottles are discarded worldwide. Feng Tay is committed to transforming this waste into high-quality fabrics, aiming to achieve 100% recycled PET fabric production by 2025.
Seawool Fabrics
Seawool functional yarns are made from recycled PET and discarded oyster shells, offering fabrics enhanced tactile comfort and multifunctional properties.
Wood Fiber Fabrics
Produced from Abaca (Manila hemp) fibers sourced from the Philippines, these fabrics feature exceptional strength and water resistance, making them ideal for eco-friendly products such as apparel, carpets, and furniture.
Fishing Net Yarn and Recycled Nylon Fabrics
Discarded fishing nets are converted into nylon yarns and then into fabrics, reducing ocean pollution while promoting resource reutilization.
Each product line supports innovation and customization according to customer requirements, with strict quality control ensuring all fabrics meet international standards.
Technical R&D and Vertically Integrated Production
At the company’s early stage, Chairman Chao Shih-Jung immersed himself in the textile industry under the principle of “hands-on experience.” Spending a year as an assistant to professional craftsmen, he personally studied the manufacturing processes and technologies of industrial and specialty functional fabrics, gaining mastery over the entire upstream, midstream, and downstream supply chain. This rigorous technical foundation has established Fone Tai’s strong professional credibility and high customer satisfaction.
The company has built a fully vertically integrated production chain—from R&D, prototyping, and manufacturing to quality control—ensuring consistent product performance and reliability. This comprehensive production model allows Fone Tai to rapidly convert innovative technologies into commercial products while maintaining competitiveness in the international market.
Global Expansion and International Collaboration
Since 2008, Fone Tai Enterprise has actively expanded into global markets, emphasizing innovative and unique development technologies to set new trends in the fabric industry. The company supplies products to numerous world-class brands in sectors including athletic footwear, professional outdoor gear, and medical protective equipment, showcasing the precision and reliability of Taiwanese manufacturing.
Sustainable Practices and Corporate Philosophy
Fone Tai operates according to the guiding principles: “Heaven rewards diligence, Earth rewards kindness, Humanity rewards sincerity, Business rewards trust, and Industry rewards excellence.” The company continues to pursue superior quality, technological innovation, and customer service while actively promoting sustainable fabric product development and fulfilling environmental and social responsibilities. Fone Tai aspires to establish itself as an industry benchmark with world-class fabric technology and products that embody innovation, sustainability, and high performance, positioning Taiwanese brands at the forefront of the global market.
