Contifibre locks in the stitch

Casaloldo - Nylon yarn specialist
Contifibre has developed Contifil, a bicomponent yarn structure which locks in
the stitches during the hosiery finishing process to give a ladder resistant
bright garment.

The Italian firm launched this development
project more than two years ago to develop and commercialise a series of
technologically advanced yarns for the production of fine denier anti-ladder
hosiery. Working closely with Invista, the resulting technologies were Lycra
Fusion covered yarns and the patented Contifil polyamide. As Contifibre says,
identical in their aim, but completely different in their appearance in order
to meet the various demands of the hosiery consumers.
