Furthermore, for special requirements and customized PET high tenacity yarn, Swicofil works closely together with Tersuisse, the only European producer of spundyed (non black) PET high tenacity yarns.
Customization with Tersuisse includes the following among other points:
- food contact applications
Any polyester high tenacity yarn in the Tersuisse program can be supplied with FDA approved spin finishes.
- taslanized
Taslanzied high tenacity Polyester multilfilament yarn for applications where a better grip or a higher volume are important.
- warping
Tersuisse has modern warping equipment for high tenacity Polyester multifilament yarns - we are able to offer the yarns on weaving beams.
- spundyed
Tersuisse is today the only European producer of spundyed (non black) Polyester high tenacity yarns. One of the most important topics is the possibility of producing non bleeding shaed.
SPUNDYED PET HIGH TENACITY
The below oversight shows the standard programme of Tersuisse for PET high tenacity yarns in spundyed. Shades marked with a star (*) are colours that do not bleed. Shades marked with two stars (**) are colours that do most likely not bleed.
ADVANTAGES OF TERSUISSE SPUNDYED YARNS
- ability to offer spundyed shades that are NOT bleeding (even in sea water)
