machines and services. They can

bring the Burckhardt products closer to

our customers. The next step will be

to include toll-perforating capabilities

in the US. In most cases this is a

rst step for interesting projects

allowing the customer to test and

develop perforated materials with our

knowhow and experience, but without

the nancial investment in machinery.

A good example for such a development

project is the next generation of

outdoors fabrics. Thanks to micro-

perforated lms our customers can

replace expensive woven fabrics with

light woven/lm laminates providing

the same or better waterproof and

breathable properties and at lower cost

than before.

News from Trevira

1. Trevira CS innovations:

new looks, functions and

applications

Today the Trevira CS brand stands not

only for the ame retardancy function

of home textiles, it also represents

textiles that stand out from the

competition by virtue of their design

and the new opportunities they offer

in terms of end use. The materials

embody the innovative powers of

companies as they cooperate along

the textile chain to create new product.

Trevira actively supports them in the

process.

Trevira itself is continuously adapting its

product portfolio in yarns and upstream

products to market requirements. Many

products stem from close collaboration

and agreement with yarn and fabric

customers.

The demand for ner qualities is

steadily increasing and Trevira is

meeting this by expanding both

its capacity and the range of ame

retardant micro-yarns, used in Trevira

CS warp knitted articles with a suede

effect for upholstery, special weaves

for the exhibition construction sector

and extremely ne velvets. Great

emphasis continues to fall on spun-

dyed yarns, rstly for ecological

reasons, but also since they offer

more durability and opportunities for

innovative design.

Manufacturers have at their disposal a

wide range of ame retardant laments

in around twenty standard colours.

The trend towards functional materials

as well is unchecked. Hybrid yarns

for the thermal bonding of materials

continue to grow in importance.

These are used mainly for interior sun

screening, but they are now found

more and more in applications outside

classic furnishing textiles.

Spinners, twisters and manufacturers

of fancy yarns are extending and

enhancing the palette for Trevira CS

with numerous bre and lament yarns,

thus contributing with their experience

and customer-centred developments

to the almost inexhaustible choice

of raw materials that result in highly

creative surface developments. In the

process they are widening the options

for high-value Trevira CS textiles in

terms of construction and design.

Fabric manufacturers have the total

spectrum at their disposal. Ranging

from standard yarns, to elastic, shrink,

chenille, KdK, and mélange yarns, up

to innovative paper yarns.

In recent years it has become

very evident, particularly in fabric

manufacture, that looks are being

achieved with Trevira CS qualities that

come very close to natural materials

such as linen, silk, wool and cotton.

Currently there are materials available

on the market with both the look

and the handle similar to high quality

natural materials. To some degree

they exhibit even the ne character of

apparel fabrics and meet the demands

of the upmarket private sector.

Trevira CS textiles also play a large

part in opening up new areas of

application for textiles. They are

now used in the sound absorbency

and sunscreen sectors, areas where

architects are at present always

on the lookout for fresh functional

solutions. Sound absorbency can

be achieved from stiffened materials

made from hybrid yarns, from new

3D knitted fabrics and from innovative

constructions. But existing articles

too are maintaining their entry into

soundproong, in panels, wall dividers

and decorative elements.

2. New developments in

sustainability

In 2013 Trevira launched a recycling

concept for used Trevira CS fabrics.

The end of their useful life does not

mean that Trevira CS textiles end up in

the rubbish dump or in the incinerator

for thermal recycling. On the contrary,

they are a valuable raw material and

within the framework of a return and

recycle concept they can proceed on

to appropriate new uses.

Since the textiles are manufactured

from a single raw material, 100%

Trevira CS polyester, this is a favourable

precondition for recycling. Possible

end uses are, for instance, materials

for insulation or soundproong, which

could include applications in acoustic

panels for ofce and conference

areas, hotels and restaurants as well

as for public buildings.

The concept foresees that at the end

Trevira will take back fabrics consisting

of 100% ame retardant Trevira bre

and lament yarns when their useful

life is over. The fabrics need to be

clean, dry and free of contaminations

and coatings. They must also have

passed the Trevira CS trademark test,

as the identication of the fabrics and

the permission to participate in the

recycling scheme is handled via the

trademark approval number registered

at Trevira.

All players in the textile chain, from

the yarn producer to the end user,

will be informed that used Trevira CS

textiles will be taken back by Trevira.

For example, when refurbishing a

hotel, the hotel owner/manager or

the contracting furnisher can send

the old Trevira CS fabrics back to

Trevira. These fabrics are put on stock

and, when the required quantities

have been collected, proceed on to

mechanical processing and recycling.

To ensure sustainability in implementing

the recycling process, Trevira will

take into account the location of the

end consumer. Fabrics sent in by

companies in the European area are

collected in the Trevira production
