It is our purpose at SHENMARK Textile to design premium sustainable yarns with a balance in environmental and performance aspects. An important consideration with our recycled polyester yarns is whether these can achieve a shiny effect like that of traditional polyester yarns. Advanced processes alongside the special characteristics of recycled polyester make this possible.
The Origins of Our Recycled Polyester Yarn
We mainly source waste silk, waste yarn, waste fibers, and waste plastic bottles to make our recycled polyester yarns. These materials go through careful selection and processing so that they can reach high quality and sustainable standards. Our recycled polyester yarns, unlike virgin polyester laced yarns obtained from oil, carefully showcase the attempt to minimize waste and strive for better eco-friendly options. These waste materials serve a dual purpose where they help in creating yarns that are environmentally sustainable and durable as well as versatile.
Yarn made of recycled polyester shines differently based on its composition and how it is processed. Reflective properties of yarn are well known especially when it comes to FDY (Fully Drawn Yarn) and DTY (Drawn Textured Yarn) yarns. Recycled polyester yarns can achieve the same level of shine, but it is dependent entirely on processing strategies used, as well as composition of the yarn. Our sustainable recycled polyester yarns are crafted using traditional polyester and their qualities are preserved during the spinning and finishing processes. Yarns shine due to the advanced spinning and finishing processes. For instance, FDY recycled polyester yarns are drawing, and then heat-setting while also smoothing them to enable light reflection for shine. Likewise, our DTY recycled polyester yarns are able to undergo texturing for increased shine.
Effects of Processing Techniques The steps taken in dyeing yarn directly affect the brightness of the shine of recycled polyester yarn. At SHENMARK Textile, we pride ourselves in using modern techniques and machinery to guarantee the best quality of our yarns. Our FDY recycled polyester yarns go through a special drawing process where the fibers are pulled apart to smoothen the surface of the yarns. This increases the smooth surface's ability to reflect light. The texturing stage is of great importance in the case of our DTY recycled polyester yarns. During texturing, fibers are moved in a manner that alternating smooth and textured surfaces are created. This improvement increases the reflectance of the yarns. The final outcome is eco-friendly yarns that can achieve a similar shine as polyester yarns but without the negative environmental impact. Advantages of Recycled Polyester Yarn Our recycled polyester yarns are beneficial in many ways more than just appearance. One way is in their durability; they are very strong and resistant to yarn-over, making them suitable for use in clothing, and even for industrial purposes. Another point to consider is eco-friendliness. Using waste silk, waste yarn, waste fiber, and even waste plastic bottles helps lowers the amount of material sent to landfills while preserving resources. Also, less energy and water is used when producing recycled polyester as compared to virgin polyester which also lessens its impact on the environment.
To sum up, the luster of our recycled polyester yarns comes from sophisticated textile processes, and the particular attention to sustainability. While aesthetic appearances may fluctuate, our shiny-grade FDY and DTY recycled polyester yarns strive to meet the set criteria. By integrating the careful choice of raw materials, design, and novel production techniques, we manufacture sustainable and environmentally friendly yarns with traditional quality characteristics of polyester yarns. As a company, SHENMARK Textile takes the responsibility for maintaining ecological balance through sustainable textile production, and stands at the forefront by providing innovative solutions, such as recycled polyester yarns.
At SHENMARK Textile, we pride ourselves in promoting the shine and sustainability of our premium quality products. Our eco-friendly yarns made from waste materials are not only durable, but also versatile, which lowers the carbon footprints.
