Research and Development

Since the 1950s, polymer and fiber R&D has been in our DNA. We are your end-to-end partner for solving polymer challenges and bringing innovations to life: from concept to yarn.

Technical textiles & Non-wovens

Overview of Technologies by Apparel

The demand for sustainable and high-performance textile materials is rapidly increasing, while scaling new fibers from concept to production remains a key challenge. We support apparel and textile innovators in developing and scaling advanced polymer-based materials, from early-stage validation to pilot-scale fiber production. We provide R&D expertise in the (de)polymerization of polyester, nylon and biopolymers, as well as chemical recycling, combined with in-house melt spinning capabilities to translate new materials into functional fiber prototypes.

Creep

Physical characterization

A force at break value does not always describe how a yarn behaves under long-term loading conditions.

Time to failure

Physical characterization

An absolute strength (force at break) value does not always cover all the information about the strength of a yarn.
