What we do
"You may not always see our products, but they invariably add key performance characteristics to our customers' products."
Our activities begin with the sourcing of widely available polymers, including polypropylene, polyethylene, polyester, and nylon, combining these with specialty additives and colours which influence performance, aesthetics, and processing efficiencies. Using proprietary intellectual property these polymer mixes are extruded to form a variety of yarns which can be sold but more usually are transformed into fabrics using a broad range of technologies, and which can then be coated or combined with other materials to form composite products. The products sold are typically components which are important determinants of the performance and/or efficiency of our customers' final product or process.
