When exposed to a light source for 10 minutes, this
new generation of heat-preservation additives can
provide a temperature increase from 6°C to 12°C for
PET and PA fibers based on different let-down-ratio
and textile structure.
This solution includes two grades, one for polyamide
and the other for polyester fibers.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Offers reheating property for synthetic fibers
with specialty formulations
• Provides a temperature increase of up to 12°C
when exposed to a light source for 10 minutes
• Good spinnability
• Lower impact on the color
APPLICATIONS
Cesa Fiber Additives are intended for use in:
• Clothing: hoodie, sweater, jacket, ski clothing,
thermal underwear, etc

Standard grades are available
in both prime and recycled portfolios.
They are suitable for a wide range of applications,
similarly to prime Bergmid/Nymax grades.
