COMFIL offers a range of products made using our unique steam texturizing technology.
Texturizing with steam is a unique technology only offered by COMFIL. In this process high tenacity yarns are processed into high- volume texturized yarns using steam technology.
The Steamtex technology is particularly suited for yarns where a high volume is required, while maintaining original tenacity.
Advantages:
Original tenacity of the high tenacity yarn is maintained
Thermal shrinkage is brought down close to zero
The yarn achieves very high volume and high elasticity
Air Texturizing
Texturized yarns are produced using compressed air through an air jet nozzle. With air texturizing, the yarn forms crimps and loops, which affects the tactile and tensile properties. The volume of the process yarn can be controlled specifically, depending on the overfeed of the yarn filaments.
Advantages:
Very predictable volume
Can be made without shrinkage
Low elasticity
Possibility to mix different yarns, colours and effects
