Stage IV. Testing and validation as per
EN/ISO/ASTM.
5. Yarn Technology
• Derived from staple fibres;
• Ideal for knitted or woven applications;
• Can include fine filaments of wire or textile grade
glass fibres to increase cut, heat or arc protection;
• Unique construction allows precise positioning of the
various filaments within the yarn as per requirement;
• Different shades available as per requirement.
6. Technical yarns
• Dualtec® yarns;
• Powerguard® yarns;
• Other HP yarns.
These yarns are designed by blending
high performance technical fibers such
as p-aramid, m-aramid, Modacrylic,
cotton, FR Viscose, wool, etc. to offer
heat, cut, abrasion, antimicrobial or
other benefits as per end user’s
requirements.
