YOU
The textile industry is moving at great speed towards a fairer, more balanced model.
In this context, recycled polyester staple fiber becomes the ideal solution, especially for filling products such as pillows, mattresses and duvets. Its resilience ensures long-lasting support, whilst its resistance to moisture and mould improves hygiene and prolongs the life of products.
Recycled polyester staple fiber for the textile industry
Recycled polyester staple fiber (PSF) has become an essential material in the textile industry thanks to its versatility, sustainability and excellent technical properties. Made from recycled materials such as PET bottles, this fiber is an ecological option which meets the growing demands for sustainability and performance of the sector.
Types of recycled polyester staple fiber for use in the textile industry
The variety of PSF fibers allows them to be adapted to different textile applications, guaranteeing functionality and quality in the final products. The most common types used are:
SOLID FIBER
More compact and resistant, it is used in applications requiring durability and support.
Common in technical fabrics, nonwovens and felts.
HOLLOW FIBER
Its hollow structure traps air, providing thermal insulation and volume.
Ideal for filling bulky textile products such as duvets and pillows.
CONJUGATED HOLLOW FIBER
Its helical structure affords exceptional elasticity and recovery.
Ideal for applications requiring volume, softness and resistance to caking, ensuring superior durability and a uniform appearance.
Treatments
Below are some of the most popular fiber configurations in the textile industry:
SILICONISED FIBERS
• Silicone-treated to improve softness and resistance to caking.
• Perfect for high-quality textile products such as bedding and upholstery.
ANTIBACTERIAL FIBERS
• Impregnated with additives that inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi.
• Used in medical clothing, sportswear and home textiles.
Applications in the textile industry
Recycled PSF is an essential material in multiple areas of the textile industry, adapting to the needs of each segment:
Advantages of recycled polyester staple fiber
The use of recycled PSF in textiles not only promotes a more sustainable way of producing and living, but it also provides technical advantages that benefit manufacturers and consumers.
Sustainability
Produced from reused materials such as bottles and trays (PET), recycled fiber significantly reduces environmental impact and contributes to the circular economy.
Lightness and comfort
It affords softness and comfort, especially in applications such as bedding and clothing.
Durability and resistance
It is resistant to wear and tear, washing and intensive use conditions, extending the life of textile products.
Special properties
It can be customised with treatments to be antibacterial, fireproof or water-resistant, expanding its field of application.
