LUXOR®/ALUFIN® TX-A and LUXOR®/ALUFIN® TX-A ST: Spectacular look, semi-transparent highlights

For Première Vision, KURZ once again has high-quality solutions for eyecatching fashion looks in its portfolio: LUXOR®/ALUFIN® TX-A combines a premium look with reliable processing and impresses with its high gloss, as well as a particularly uniform appearance. In addition, the semi-transparent LUXOR®/ALUFIN® TX-A ST finish opens up exciting perspectives and completely new dimensions of surface finishing.

Both solutions are characterized by brilliant gloss, improved washability and high abrasion resistance and are also suitable for both full-surface and partial decoration. LUXOR®/ALUFIN® TX-A and LUXOR®/ALUFIN® TX-A ST can even be processed on natural and synthetic materials such as woven or knitted fabrics and lace, as well as on artificial and genuine leather, and are suitable for chemical cleaning. With this portfolio, KURZ gives designers scope for unique creations based on state-of-the-art technology. "For many, hot stamping in the textile sector is synonymous with large-surface, chunky prints. But this technology is so versatile. It is precisely this wealth of facets that we want to clearly demonstrate with our trade fair presence," explains Nicola Bauer, International Product Manager Textiles at LEONHARD KURZ.
