Air Textured Yarn for Upholstery and Home Textiles
topic
Air textured polyester and nylon yarns for upholstery and home textile applications use high-tenacity multifilament cores with bulky effect components providing the combination of abrasion durability required for contract furniture upholstery life cycles above 50000 Martindale rubs and the spun-yarn aesthetic surface texture that consumers expect in premium upholstery fabrics replacing natural fibre equivalents with lower performance.
Role
Provides the raw material for synthetic upholstery and home textile fabrics requiring spun-yarn appearance with synthetic performance durability, with air texturing being preferred over false twist texturing for these applications from the superior cover, surface texture uniformity, and bulk stability of air-textured yarns in the woven and warp knitted constructions used for contract and residential upholstery fabrics.
