 Needlepunched nonwovens are formed by a process in which staple
fibers are combed (carded) into a web. The fibers in the web are then
mechanically bonded together by needles punching through the web, to
form the final product. The fiber blanket, in its original form, can
be manufactured to width and thickness required by customer
specification. Acoustical and thermal performance, tensile
strength, dimensional stability and other characteristics required by
the end product is controlled during the manufacturing process.
Calendering and
other
finishing
treatments
are provided to enhance performance characteristics.
 Arbanassi
PLC uses synthetic and natural
staple
fibers
such
as Polyester,
Polypropylene, Viscose, Polyamide, Wool as well as various latexes
(aqueous solvents of organic polymer binders), wool yarn, knitted
cuttings, dyes, etc.
Fabric treatments available are coloring, hydrophilic, hydrophobic,
antistatic, antibacterial, thermofixing, impregnation.
 The
available machinery and equipment is: carding machines from
Italy (Octir), France (Thibeau, Asselin), Poland (Befama); drying
installations from Germany (Brückner, Texima, Menscher) and
needle punching production lines (Fehrer, Austria; Thibeau,
France; Dilo, Germany).
The Technological department is striving constantly to improve our
production process and products by seeking new fibers and treatments
thus bringing a higher degree of innovation into our fabrics. |
