【Supercategory:6. Products Subcategory:6.10 New products of 2022

Kuraray Trading has developed an anti-slip fine Nylon fibre. The soft and grippy fibre can be used to enhance the fit of clothing and sports items. Unlike typical fine fibres, it does not need to be processed by alkali with higher concentration, and instead needs a boiled water processing. Thanks to it, production of the eco-friendly fibres emits CO2 about 40% less than that of typical fine fibres.
