Finishes at their Best

Finishes are given to fabrics after knitting or dyeing to improve the look, performance, or "hand" (feel) of the finished textile.

Finishes

Water Repellent Finish

 

Today finishing as the last step in textile processing becomes more and more important.

The variety of demands from end-users, requiring comfort such as softeningeasy-care propertiesprotectionfunctionality and/or special effects (such as hydrophilic or anti-feltingproperties) is still growing. 

The process safety and reliability of the products is a significant issue for the textile finisher.

Our experience in the field of textile finishing is based on experience and tradition, ongoing focus on market needs and close collaboration between the technical service team, the research & development group and our customers.

We provide state-of-the-art products along with tailor-made solutions for virtually all requirements.

We have warm business relations with world renowned suppliers of finishes.

Anti Microbial

Body moisture and warmth in textiles are the ideal biosphere for bacteria. Bacteria exploit the organic content of the body moisture generated. The degradation products of this exploitation are associated with unpleasant odours.

Wicking / Moisture Management

Speed not only plays a decisive role in most sports, but also with your textile.
Wherever textiles with good hydrophilic properties and fast moisture transportation are demanded, FERAN ICE by Rudolf  helps crossing finishing line.
With its permanent hydrophilic properties, FERAN ICE supports the absorbency of the textile and ensures that capillary effects can develop. Additionally, FERAN ICE improves the soil-release properties of the textile (e.g. in home laundering). Optimised in this way, sportswear will exhibit a permanently high functionality. Moreover, FERAN ICE-confers a soft and supple handle as well as antistatic properties to the textile.

Resin Finishes

The dimensional stability and easy-care properties of a textile are decisive quality criteria for the maker-up and consumer. Natural and regenerated cellulosic fibres usually cannot fulfil these criteria without being resin-finished.

There are finishes available inclding RUCON by Rudolf which gives following effects

RUCON DPO improves the dimensional stability; full handle; sets chintz, rippling and embossing effects; highly permanent effects; not resistant to chlorine.

Anti pill Finishes

Pills are small balls of fibers attached to the surface of fabric. They comes from the detached fibers from yarn. Other than resin finishes which prevents the pilling process. There are specific anti pilling finishes, some are required for micro fiber fabrics.
