ECLAT TEXTILE Business Summary
Eclat Textile Co., Ltd. (1476.TW) is a premier global manufacturer of high-performance elastic knit fabrics and apparel, operating a vertically integrated business model that spans from textile engineering to garment assembly. The company generates revenue primarily through two segments: the Garments division, which accounts for the majority of its top-line growth by producing activewear and seamless apparel for elite global brands, and the Fabrics division, which focuses on the R&D and sale of innovative, flexible textiles. Eclat maintains a dominant position in the premium athletic market by serving a blue-chip client base that includes Nike, Lululemon Athletica, and Under Armour. It competes directly with major Asian textile players such as Pacific Textiles, Texwinca Holdings, and Formosa Taffeta, distinguishing itself through superior technical innovation, sustainable manufacturing practices, and a robust supply chain footprint across Taiwan, Vietnam, and Indonesia. Following the 2024 retirement of founder Cheng-Hai Hung, the company is led by Chairman Shu-Wen “Richard” Wang, a certified public accountant with a background in finance and banking who has spearheaded the firm’s global investment and risk management strategies since 2001. Jui-Ting “JT” Hung serves as President and CEO, bringing a sales-driven leadership style and a focus on human capital investment after rising through the ranks since 2009. The executive team is further bolstered by Vice Chairman Kun-Tang “Kevin” Chen, who holds a Ph.D. in Textile Management and oversees product innovation, and VP of Finance Fen-Ru “Tiffany” Lin, who manages global financial operations. The company’s institutional stability is supported by a sophisticated investor base, including major holdings from Yiyuan Investment, Fidelity Management & Research, and BlackRock.
