Comments:
We have proved that PTT yarns give to the final product (textile fabrics and garments) different and specific properties compared to standard polyester like better: softness, drapability, abrasion resistance (especially important for upholstery and rugs application), resilience, recovery. PTT has as well easy care capability and is easy dyable allowing energy consumption diminution. PTT has a natural touch that allows it to be blended with natural fibers as well as with man-made and elastomeric filaments. In the interest of the consumer, we support the idea, based on the previous argumentation, PTT should be differentiated from standard polyester.
