FERAN ICA - Upgrade polyester.

More function for the number one amongst the fibres

Due to the continuously rising demand, polyester has become the number one amongst the fibres. It accounts for 1/4 of the world-wide fibre production.

Besides its advantages, such as dimensional stability, colour fastness and easy-care, which consumers appreciate, polyester has also slight weaknesses, as most things in life.

Competence in multifunctional PES finishing
