ORGANIC SOLVENTS FOR STAIN REMOVAL:

BIOSOLVENTS FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE STAIN REMOVAL

The stain removal stage requires the use of high-performance solvents to remove impurities and stains from fine fibres. Our chemical solutions guarantee effective treatment, while maintaining the delicacy of the fibres.

Solvents and Stain Remover:

BIOSOLVENTS WITH EXCELLENT STAIN REMOVAL CAPACITY FOR FINE FIBRES

The removal of stains and impurities from fine fibres is a delicate step that requires the use of specific solvents. Our solutions are designed to act effectively without damaging the fibre structure, ensuring a safe and high-quality treatment.

 our organic solvents offer excellent stain removal on a wide range of fabrics and materials, including the most delicate ones such as wool and noble fibres. Thanks to an advanced formulation, the solvents penetrate the stains without attacking the fabric, ensuring deep and targeted cleaning.

Our proprietary range AstroBio™ Green Solventdeveloped with eco-friendly technologies, is characterised by its low environmental impact and effectiveness in removing stubborn stains. 

These solvents are ideal for both manual and industrial treatments, always guaranteeing a uniform, residue-free result.

FLUORINE-FREE WATER REPELLENTS:

BIOSOLVENTS FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE STAIN REMOVAL

In the industrial context, the protection of noble fibres requires efficient water-repellent products that meet new sustainability requirements. Our fluorine-free water-repellents are an ideal solution for industrial-scale textile treatments, providing effective protection against water and stains without the use of fluorinated compounds.

Water-repellent:

Advanced Solutions for Industrial Fibre Protection

These products are designed to be integrated into industrial finishing processes, providing a strong and durable barrier without compromising the breathability and softness of natural fibres. 

Thanks to their innovative formulations, they provide excellent water and stain resistance while meeting the highest standards of environmental sustainability required by the textile industry.

Our solutions are easy to apply in automated processes and ensure uniform distribution on fabrics, improving production efficiency and minimising waste. Perfect for end treatments that need to combine high performance with reduced environmental impact, our fluoro-free water repellents meet the needs of an increasingly sustainability-conscious textile industry.

POST-TREATMENT:

ADVANCED SOLUTIONS TO IMPROVE THE RESISTANCE OF FABRICS DURING INDUSTRIAL WASHING PROCESSES.

The post-treatment of noble fibres, such as wool and its blends, is a fundamental step to ensure colour fastness and durability of the finished product. Our fixing and soaping agents are designed to optimise industrial washing processes, improving the resistance of fabrics to mechanical and chemical stress.

Post-Treatment:

STABILISERS AND FIXING AND SOAPING AGENTS FOR MAXIMUM COLOUR FASTNESS

 Fixation products are essential to increase the wet fastness of dyes, particularly pre-metallic dyes, offering greater protection against fading and wear during use and washing cycles. Solutions such as the ACF FIXERspecifically formulated for pre-metallicised follone dyes, provide effective and long-lasting fixing, keeping the colours of treated fabrics bright and vibrant.

In addition, our soaping agents remove unfixed dye residues, ensuring a uniform and durable end result, ready for use or further processing. These products are ideal for industrial-scale applications, reducing processing time and improving the overall efficiency of production cycles.

SOFTENERS FOR WOOL PROCESSES 

Cationic and silicone softeners are essential for preserving the softness and quality of noble fibres during industrial finishing processes

Softeners:

CATIONIC AND SILICONE SOFTENERS FOR SOFT AND STRONG FIBRES

Our solutions are designed to withstand intense mechanical stress, maintaining the integrity and softness of the fibres even under high stress conditions.

These softeners create a protective barrier around the fibres, improving resistance to cutting forces and reducing friction between fabrics, thus facilitating subsequent processing steps. Perfect for applications where a particularly soft hand and long life are required, our products ensure consistent, high quality results, even in the most delicate processes.

ANTIFELTRANTS:

ADVANCED PROTECTION OF NOBLE FIBRES.

Anti-felting agents are essential to prevent fibre shrinkage and felting during the industrial processing of wool and fine fibres. Our advanced chemical solutions are designed to keep the natural structure of the fibres intact, ensuring that they remain soft and flexible even after repeated washing cycles and treatments.

Antifeltants:

PERMANENT ANTI-FELTANT TREATMENT

In the treatment of noble fibres such as wool, felting represents a crucial challenge, especially when it comes to maintaining fibre integrity during industrial processes. Our anti-felting solutions offer advanced protection, ensuring that fibres remain soft, flexible and strong, even after multiple washing cycles and intensive processing.

Our range of antifeltants includes advanced polyurethane resins, specifically formulated to offer a treatment permanent anti-feltant. This cutting-edge technology creates a durable protective film around the fibre, reducing friction between individual filaments and preventing knots and felting. This maintains the original volume and softness of the fibres, improving the quality of the finished fabric.

Our anti-felting products based on polyurethane resin are highly resistant to mechanical and chemical stress, making them ideal for large-scale industrial applications. This type of permanent treatment is particularly effective in processes that require long-term stability, such as the finishing of fabrics intended for technical clothing and long-term use.
