Invista’s Cordura Brand launches a new range of fibres designed primarily for the development of durable hi-vis knitted and woven fabrics. The high tenacity polyester fibre range is available in 90 to 1180 dtex and is air jet textured for enhanced abrasion resistance and tensile and tear strength. Finished Cordura fabrics made using these quality fibres can be printed, laminated or used in uncoated forms and are suited for products such as outdoor clothing, high performance sportswear and safety footwear. Also showcased will be the latest range of rugged, comfortable Cordura Nyco and Cordura Denim fabrics designed for work apparel that features Invista T420 nylon 6.6 Nyco technology. These nylon 6.6/cotton blend fabrics offer the comfort benefits of cotton-rich fabrics combined with exceptional durability. The latest developments in Cordura fabrics from the HoYu mill offering durable stretch functionality will be available. They combine excellent abrasion resistance with the stretch recovery performance of Invista’s Lycra T400 fibre and find application in high performance apparel such as workwear reinforcement and motorcycle garments. The Cordura fabric collection features a range of rugged, comfort flex solutions such as 4-way stretch Cordura Naturalle fabrics and bi-directional stretch fabrics combined with Coolmax fabric suitable for sports and outdoor active apparel.
