When your fashion models moan "Who needs specialty yarns?" remind them that without it they would be wearing stiff threads instead of peacock bright patterned leisure shirt and blouses.
SATEX is a major producer of specialty yarn for the textile industry. Its employees know that specialty yarns do more than create today's enjoyable fabrics, it also makes it possible to weave them and give them their fabulous colors.
SATEX's expertise makes the usage of specialty yarns into fabrics possible, but they are generally washed out of the fabrics before you buy them as wash and wear shirts, printed sheets, carpets or draperies. Yet without these specialty yarns you would not have the brilliant colors, softness or luxurious touch of today's fine fabrics.
Briefly, specialty yarns are the yarns that have been chemically altered and improved,but that definition barely tells the story.
"Let's start at the begining with filament yarns," Fernando IX, IT Director says: "Specialty Yarns are sold to the industry after they have been worked. They have added a protection from fraying or breaking as they fly through the looms or the eye of a needle to become fabric or the catwalk fashion we see.
One of SATEX's key to success is its reputation for redirecting opportunity to just in time solutions.
SATEX has developed an envious reputation for just in time solutions in specialty yarns for the Columbian textile industry.
Most of the yarns run into sizing trouble during weaving. SATEX's Trouble Free Yarn is the answer. All the sizing stays in place during usage.
For example, a texturized polyester yarn needs a lubricant to keep it from breaking when it goes through all its phases. At SATEX, we make sure that sizing help turnout vibrant colors. In printing, the color pigments are deposited on the fabric's surface and locked with a binder. The binders and the thickening agents supplied to specialty yarns give the embroiderer finer control of the process and produce more precise patterns in the fabric.
A quick look through the designer-styled clothes and embroideries in your local department store will reveal the hundreds of patterns available, and demonstrate the importance of these specialty yarns and even more its importance of specialty yarns to the textile industry.
Specialty yarns permit the designs to remain vibrant throughtout the numerous washings. Also, specialty yarns must not be stiff so that fabric will remain soft and pliable.
Without these specialty yarns, many of today's just in time solutions, could not give a suitable hand or have the convenience finishes we now enjoy.
