Polyester
Durability, versatility, and performance for demanding textile applications
Polyester is a high-performance synthetic fiber widely used in the textile industry thanks to its excellent mechanical strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to environmental factors such as moisture and chemicals. It can be produced as a monofilament or multifilament, rigid or textured, and is available in a broad range of deniers, brightness levels, and cross-sectional shapes, which allows for great flexibility in both technical performance and visual appearance.

Textured and dyed polyester yarn is commonly used in circular and flat knitting, as well as in applications such as cordage, rigid tapes, and other technical or decorative uses. It dries quickly, resists wrinkles, and maintains its shape even after repeated washing. Polyester also performs well under heat-setting and stretching processes, which enhance its mechanical properties and durability. Furthermore, when not blended with other fibers, it is fully recyclable, as it can be melted and reprocessed—making it a more environmentally responsible option among synthetic fibers.
Why chose polyester?:
- High elasticity for high stability and consistent shape
- They are extremely strong high tenacity and resistant to abrasion.
- Resistant to stretching
- Extensible and does not wrinkle easily
- Resistant to bacteria and mold.
- It is more resistant than any conventional fiber.
- Stain resistant
