The TERASIL FF disperse range from Huntsman Textile Effects sheds the right light on problems associated with the need for visibility in certain situations with “luminous” solutions to achieve durable high visibility performance on PES fabrics and its blends.
Within this range, Huntsman Textile Effects offers three special fluorescent dyes (TERASIL Flavine 10GFF, Red GFF and Red 3BFF) that are specific for personal protective equipment (PPE) and work wear, as well as combined with TERASIL brilliant disperse dyes, to achieve luminous fashion shades for high visibility sports and leisure wear.
Three select TERASIL FF fluorescent dyestuffs designed for PPE and work wear fulfil the main European and American safety requirements (EN 471, ANSI/ISEA 107-2010), and, in combination with select TERASIL brilliant disperse dyes achieve luminous fashion shades for high visibility sports and leisure wear according to norm EN 1150.
The TERASIL FF range is only available as high quality disperse dyes that give dyers and consumers the freedom of wide color choice, with the security that the fluorescent brilliance does not fade thanks to high wash and light fastness.
With the current environmental issues in mind, and because the textile industry is associated with contributing to the depletion of our planet’s valuable resources, the renowned Textile Exchange is hosting a Seminar on Sustainable Textiles in Turkey on April 14, 2011. Huntsman Textile Effects, as sponsor will be attending this highly important seminar as will other industry leaders, and we will make a presentation showcasing products and processes developed to save water in significant quantities.
What makes seminars of this nature especially relevant is that they offer a platform for those who are concerned about environmental issues to meet and share experiences and know-how. Huntsman Textile Effects takes the topic of sustainability truly seriously, which is why we are sponsoring this event and attending with a view to having a forward-thinking exchange with like-minded professionals from the industry.
We will be presenting a paper that analyzes issues surrounding our precious natural resource – water. This will take place on April 14, at 3pm during the session on Responsible Processing – Dyeing and Finishing. As the session is devoted to understanding the main issues and latest innovations on creating more responsible processing in the garment supply chain, our presentation will directly address the question “how to make textile processing with a lower environmental impact?” With living examples we will show how innovative technology can, in fact, make a difference.
