Keeps its shape to look great.

A spring-like, helical molecular structure provides form stability to “spring” back into shape even with movement. The fiber resists wrinkles and does not easily get stretched out from repeated bending at the knee or elbow, maintaining a beautiful shape at all times. There is also little shrinkage or stretch even after repeated machine washings and tumble drying, demonstrating superb dimensional stability.

SOLOTEX® resists wrinkles and deformation, and displays excellent shape recovery (jersey material comparison)

SOLOTEX® is a stretchy material, yet resists deformation due to machine washing or tumble drying.
Always feels great to wear.

Harmonizes well with other fibers for even greater potential.

SOLOTEX® is easy to combine with other fibers. It is highly compatible with both synthetic and natural fibers, for blending as desired. The fiber will add a soft texture to improve the feel against the skin, and it provides superb stretch and recovery from elongation. It is possible to add new texture and new functionality while bringing out the characteristics of the blended fiber.

The ideal cushioning with fluffy rebound.

Soft and cushion-like, akin to a marshmallow. Maintains bounce even after repeated compressions and quickly recovers its fluffy volume. Because of its high durability, SOLOTEX® retains its unique texture for a long time. These characteristics are best utilized in insulated coats, pillows, futons, and other items with filling.

Deep, vivid colors that last.

Outstanding color development is a key element for fashion applications. SOLOTEX® is very easy to dye, producing deep, vivid colors with a high-grade feel even when processing at lower temperatures than conventional methods. Extremely colorfast for long-lasting dyed color that won’t fade. For creating striking textiles exactly as envisioned.
