Gütermann presents its extensive range of premium sewing threads

With its extensive range of premium sewing threads convincing through perfect finishings, excellent sewing characteristics and high functionality, A&E Gütermann takes part in the PERFORMANCE DAYS exhibition in Munich for the first time. Gütermann advises its customers individually and comprehensively in order to find the perfect product solution according to any re-quirements.

These are the product highlights A&E Gütermann presents at PERFORMANCE DAYS:

PFC free water repellent sewing threads 

Repel, the new PFC-free finish, is an eco-friendly alternative for finishing water-re- pellent sewing threads. Thanks to its outstanding water-, dirt- and oil repellent properties, this special finishing is ideal for workwear and outdoor clothing.

FR threads: Maximum safety combined with reliable performance

Thanks to a special finish, the FR threads provide an outstanding inherent flame pro- tection that even withstand frequent washing and ageing. After removing the flame source, these special threads will extinguish itself.

Sustainability counts: Sewing threads from recycled PET bottles

Plastic bottles, recycled into sewing threads: The raw material for Gütermann’s sus- tainable sewing threads made from 100% recycled polyester are recycled PET bottles. After washing the PET bottles, chopping them into flakes and melting them down, the microfilaments obtained from the granulate are further processed into recycled fibers, made with the unique Micro Core Technology®.

Highly elastic sewing threads for superior wearing comfort

Flexible down to the smallest detail: highly elastic seams that do not restrict the design or fit and adapt to any movement. In order to support the elasticity of knitted and woven fabrics even under high stress, Gütermann’s special sewing threads are highly elastic and thus ensure superior wearing comfort combined with excellent rigidity and seam strength.

Visible safety with Anefil® Reflector

Reflective threads complete and emphasize any design. Anefil® Reflector provides maximum luminescence and seam durability. The unique thread construction is perfectly suited for applications such as sportswear, activewear and workwear.

Seams unlimited: A&E Gütermann offers bundled sewing thread competence to industry customers worldwide and for wide-ranging textile requirements – since over 275 years. In A&E Gütermann ́s Industry and Automotive product range there is the right product solution for any application. Whether it is for high-quality collections, technical textiles or automotive ap- plications: A&E Gütermann supplies sewing thread that perfectly suits any needs – for any sector and in any location. The ongoing optimization of production pro- cesses, consistently outstanding material quality and innovative product technologies ensure that sewing threads from A&E Gütermann are among the best in the world. Not for nothing has A&E Gütermann ́s competence been trusted for many years by so many of the biggest fashion companies as well as by many well-known automotive manufacturers in the world.
