Polyester Staple Fibre
Polyester Staple Fibre (PSF) has emerged as the fastest-growing fibre amongst all types of manufactured fibres. Polyesters are made by polymerisation of Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) and Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG). The polymer thus obtained is melt spun and the bundle of continuous filaments obtained by melt spinning is called tow. The tow is subjected to further processes like drawing, crimping, spin finish application and then cut into fixed lengths to get cut fibres almost equal in length to cotton fibres. These cut fibres are known as PSF.
Technology
- Constant on-line checks maintain consistent quality.
- Superior spin-finish application ensures smoother working of fibre during spinning.
- Merge number remains consistent over longer periods.
- Standard bale weight is maintained.
Quality that conforms to international benchmarks
Quality is way of life at Indo Rama. It is our constant endeavor to ensure that our products meet the most stringent international quality standards. We are confident that the yarns produced from our fibre can be benchmarked against the best in the world.
Zellweger Uster, Switzerland had released the global benchmarking system – “Uster Statistics 2001” for yarn quality. Yarns made from Indo Rama’s PSF when compared with the rigorous Uster 5% Statistics norm revealed that many of our customers (see table alongside) are already achieving the Uster quality levels consistently even at the highest spindle speeds.
This is another compelling piece of evidence that testifies to the high quality standards of Indo Rama fibre.
