Used materials in Hosiery Production

• Bamboo
  • Bamboo fiber is a kind of regenerated cellulose fiber, which is produced from raw materials of bamboo pulp by our sole patented technology. Firstly, bamboo pulp is refined from bamboo through a process of hydrolysis-alkalization and multi-phase bleaching. We then process Bamboo pulp into bamboo fiber
  • it has a strong durability, stability and tenacity. And the thinness and whiteness degree of bamboo fiber is similar to classic viscose
  
  
• Cotton
  • breathability, ability to absorb moisture
  • resistant to light, washable, impervious to weather, tear-resistant and does not shrink
  • as cotton comes from natural raw materials, it is completely non-elastic
  
  
• Cupro-fibres
  • cellulose fibre similar to viscose but a little more supple to the touch
  • used for ladies’ underwear and velvets
  
  
• Dorlastane
  • a type of Elastane (see Elastane)
  
  
• Elastane
  • elastic polyurethane which gives it the qualities of a ‘rubber band’
  • used in combination with another yarn e.g. Polyamide. The yarn can be extended to between 3 and 7 times its original length without breaking, and then returns to its original length
  • elastic and easy to keep clean, resistant to sea water and light
  • can be used for fine stockings, corsets and bodices, swim wear, elastic sports wear and for collars, cuffs and waistbands
  • very elastic, fits better and lasts longer
  
  
• elastane 3D
  • a elastane yarn twined with nylon is knitted in every row. A completely smooth and even appearance of the stitches and a better fit are possible as a result
  
  
• Microfibres
  • synthetic fibres (nylon) with a thickness of less than 1 dtex which can hardly be seen with the naked eye
  • products made from micro-fibres can achieve a level of breathability comparable with natural fibres
  • super soft feel to the touch, an even-spun appearance and ultra-light feeling to wear
  
  
• Nylon
  • trade name for the product produced by Du Pont in 1938 – Polyamide
  • synthetic fibre - hard but transparent
  • basic raw material for many modern stocking wares, for example, Satin Sheers and elastane 3D
  
  
• Polyacryl/Acryl
  • synthetic fibre with a low density which can easily be puffed out
  • woolly texture, does not easily turn to felt, does not shrink and is easy to wash
  • sensitive to high temperatures but is as a rule easy to iron
  
  
• Polyamide
  • synthetic fibres with a high resistance to tear and high abrasion resistance, good colour ductibility and very easy workability
  • very durable and easy to wash
  • do not stand up well to high temperatures
  • used in fine stockings, women’s underwear, corsets and bodices, and swim wear
  
  
• Polyester
  • synthetic fibres which can stand higher temperatures such as Polyacryl/Acryl
  • easy to keep clean
  • stability of shape and high resistance to crease and durability
  
  
• Polypropylene
  • dyed Synthetic fibres which can stand higher temperatures without changing color.
  • used in the fashion articles
  
  
• Satin Sheers
  • a elastane thread spun alternately with a smooth glossy nylon thread
  • high gloss, luxurious material
  
  
• Silk
  • glossy, light, very soft, almost non-creaseable, cool in summer, warm in winter
  • used mainly with cotton or wool
  
  
• Stretch
  • special stocking yarn that curls less (texturing) and is called crepe yarn
  • products made from stretch yarn are less cross-elastic but, as opposed to conventional crepe articles, a clearer definition of the stitches is possible
  
  
• Tactel
  • registered Trade Mark from Du Pont for a whole range of different yarns for clothing based on polyamide
  • gloss and the specially fine filaments
  • easy to keep clean and has a high level of breathability so that warmth and moisture regulation is guaranteed
  
  
• Thanelast
  • a type of Elastane (see Elastane)
  
  
• Viscose
  • cellulose fibre
  • good moisture absorption propertie
  • skin-friendly and have the appearance of cotton or wool, and a soft fee
