Extremely
high tensile strength of 7.8 grams per denier.
You can achieve 80% higher strength
than traditional spun yarn and up to 200% higher
strength than normal tenacity PP yarn in the market.

You
can use a finer denier of PDK Filament and still
get the same strength as the corse denier of traditional
thread giving lower costs per meter of yarn. The
yarn can also be manufactured up to 14 kgs per
bobbin (standard size is 7.5 kgs per bobbin) resulting
in fewer bobbin changes and higher sewing efficiency.
E.g. using a traditional spun polyester thread
with 1 kg. cone will need 13.47 times more bobbin
change than PDK PP multifilament with 7.5 kgs
bobbin.

PP multifilament is the lightest fiber in the
world. It can even float on water. It is the
fiber that provides the most surface
coverage among other yarns. For example,
it gives 152% more coverage than polyester yarn
which means if you need 100 kgs of PP multifilament
to make 200 meters of fabric, you will need
152 kgs of polyester yarn to make the same fabric.

| Acid resistant,
alkaline resistant, mildew resistant, insect resistant,
provides the same strength either wet or dry, UV
resistant (when requested), etc. |
Doped dyed.
The color masterbatch is extruded together with
the PP resin during the yarn extrusion process,
this makes the color an integral part of the filaments
providing exceptionally high color fastness. |
Very low
moisture absorption, stain resistant, anti-static
characteristics that make it hard for dust and stains
to contaminate the products. |
| Easy to
re-cycle, NO toxic byproducts during
production OR disposal through burning! |
Non allergic
to human skin - very safe for handling. |
Lower costs
per meter of sewing thread, reduced re-cycling costs,
fewer spindle changes. |
