RAW MATERIAL

Distributor selection.

A fundamental step between fibres and tights is the distributor, i.e. the middle man between tights and stockings manufacturers and fibres and yarns manufacturers. The many distributors on the market release the products of the two market leaders in the nylon sector - Invista's Tactel and Nylstar's Meryl - and the elastan produced by Invista - Lycra

Yarn selection NYLON

Nylon is nowadays produced and marketed by a lot of companies. At the beginning of the 90s, the nylon industry underwent a profound reorganisation.
Invista absorbed the British Ici, while the Italian SNIA and the French Rhone-Poulenc joined together in Nylstar joint venture. With regards to hosiery, Nylstar, with its Meryl mark, and Invista, with its Tactel mark, hold the main market share in Europe.

SILK
Silk is used in luxury women hosiery, but only combined with other yarns, due to its limited elasticity.

ELASTANE

Invista's Lycra and Bayer's Dorlastan are the most used elastomers.

COTTON

WOOL

Wool is used in winter hosiery, blended with a low percentage of elastomeric fibres. Ennoblement provides it with characteristics such as water repellence, no-shrink and moth and mildew resistance
