Bio-polyethylene for more sustainable textile finishing processing

POLYAVIN bPEN is the new plug-in solution to replace fossil feedstock. Thus, CHT lifts the use of polyethylene-based products in the textile chain to the next level.

TAKE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT IN YOUR OWN HANDS

POLYAVIN bPEN is the first finishing agent coming with a carbon uptake. The use of biobased raw materials, capturing carbon dioxide from theatmosphere, achieves the reduction.

Companies can now take the opportunity to improve the CO2 footprint on their processing of textiles.

POLYAVIN bPEN does not require any compromise versus a standard polyethylene and performs on a similar performance level.

POLYAVIN bPEN is a versatile lubricant. The product can be used as a processing aid to reduce yarn friction, to prevent sewing damage during confection, to achieve uniform raising effects and to support compressive shrinkage during sanforizing/compacting of fabrics.


 

POLYAVIN bPEN is also excellently suited as a performance additive to increase tear and abrasion resistance, to variate haptics. In combination with calandering processes, the product acts as a gloss enhancer to create valuable surface effects.

By providing POLYAVIN bPEN, CHT is asking potential users whether 'you are ready for the next step in reducing your ecological footprint' and at the same time inviting them to take matters into their own hands.
