We specialize in weaving conductive elements into textile.

A metal layer coiled over a core polymer yarn, made on looms rather than by hand — which is what makes it manufacturable at volume. Woven in Taiwan since 1999.

Resistance is set by covering count

More coverings lower the resistance and increase toughness. That trade is the specification — it is chosen per order, not fixed.

Weaving since 1999

LiTex began as a spinoff of Hen Hao Trading Co., Ltd., a narrow-fabrics manufacturer — so the weaving competence is inherited rather than improvised. The conductive yarn runs on the same class of machinery.

The office is in Taipei, Mon–Fri 09:00–18:00 (UTC+8). Enquiries go to sales@litex.com.tw, and the forms below record every submission before attempting delivery, so nothing is lost if mail fails.

Minimum order quantity, lead times and sample policy are not stated in LiTex's published material, so this site does not state them either. An enquiry is how to get them.
