FiberVisions and ES-FiberVisions are leaders in innovation and they offer a number of
patented products.
There are two main product families.
POLYPROPYLENE STAPLE FIBERS are available through FiberVisions.
Polypropylene fibers are the lightest of all commercial fibers. This low density allows
users to either make a nonwoven fabric in the same weight range as competing fibers but
with improved coverage, or to make a fabric in a lighter weight range, but with the same
coverage and lower material costs. PP fibers have a high tensile strength, excellent
resistance to chemicals, and can be made with a broad range of elongation properties.
FiberVisions offers a wide variety of products to meet its users' needs.
- Titer range: 1-15 dtex
- Hydrophilic, durable hydrophilic, hydrophobic and other functional finishes
- Bright, white or pigmented
- Fiber length:
- Short Cut: 3-30 mm
- Staple: 25-100 mm
- Various cross sections
- Additives for enhanced performance: softness, wettability, opacity, adhesion
promotion, antimicrobial, dyeability, flame retardance, UV resistance
BICOMPONENT STAPLE FIBERS are available through ES FiberVisions, a joint
venture of FiberVisions Corporation and Chisso Corporation. Bicomponent fibers allow
customers to manufacture nonwoven fabrics without using any chemical binders.
Bicomponent fibers can also be heat sealable, laminatable to polyolefin-based materials
without any binders, and heat moldable.
ES FiberVisions supplies a wide range of bicomponent fibers produced for it by
FiberVisions and Chisso on a global basis and its product capabilities include:
- Cross-sections: Concentric, Eccentric, Side-by-side and Splittable
- Sheath Materials: High Density PE, Low Density PE, Linear Low Density PE,
Co-polypropylene, and EVA
- Core Materials: Polypropylene, Polyester, Polyethylene
- Finishes: Hydrophilic, Durable Hydrophilic, Rapid Strike Thru, Hydrophobic,
Wet Lay
- Denier range: 0.5-100+ d/f
- Crimp types: Zigzag, Eccentric, Spiral (maximum bulk)
- Fiber length:
- Short Cut: 3-24 mm
- Staple Fiber: 38-128 mm
- Additives to provide or enhance antibacterial properties, softness, temperature,
UV protection, flame retardancy, etc.
