Xlance® has Found Its Way Into the Turkish Market with Sustainable Stretch Yarn
Italian-based Xlance, an innovative stretch fiber manufacturer, has found its way into the vibrant Turkish market through a collaborative effort with Teksel Tekstil. Xlance®which lies in its long-lasting stretch properties, surpassing conventional spandex in both performance and durability, highlights its technical prowess in the realm of sustainable textile innovation.
Engaged in sampling initiatives and collaborating with local spinning mills in Turkey, Xlance® is actively fortifying the local supply chain, contributing significantly to the growth of the Turkish textile market. In June, Xlance® will join Teksel Tekstil at their booth during the ITM 2024 Exhibition İstanbul. This event will provide an exclusive opportunity for people to explore and experience the innovative fiber firsthand.
As the fiber undergoes technical sampling and collaboration in Turkey, it inaugurates in a new era where technical excellence and sustainability converge for a brighter future in textiles. In this new era, Xlance® demonstrates that sustainability and innovation can coexist harmoniously in the ever-evolving landscape of the textile industry.
In this strategic partnership, Xlance® emerges as the ideal choice as an alternative to spandex when it comes to performance and sustainability.
The standout feature of Xlance® lies in its long-lasting stretch properties, surpassing conventional spandex in both performance and durability. This unique characteristic significantly extends the life cycle of garments, contributing to the reduction of production waste and landfill content, thus reducing its environmental impact.
Due to its Molecular Architecture, Xlance® can be Heat Set at 120°C
Due to its molecular architecture, Xlance® can be heat set at 120°C, (against 185-190°C required for spandex). This not only allows compatibility with thermosensitive fibers, such as polypropylene and wool, but also ensures substantial energy and pollution savings, highlighting its technical prowess in the realm of sustainable textile innovation.
As we delve into the applications of Xlance®, its transformative capabilities become even more apparent. In the realm of denim, the bi-stretch denim with Xlance® fiber offers an unparalleled fit and lasting comfort, making it an innovative choice for denim applications.
Its Thermal and Chemical Resistance Enables the Fiber to withstand Discoloration
The technical advancements of Xlance® extend into sportswear and swimwear, where its unique low heat-setting process allows seamless integration with thermosensitive fibers. When combined with Polypropylene, not only it ensures a high-performance fit but also offers improved thermal regulation. Moreover, Xlance®’s inherent resistance to chlorine ensures physical properties endure in swimming pool conditions, and the yarn’s resistance to UVA and UVB radiations enhances its technical profile.
Xlance® is excellent for shirting fabrics, ensuring durability, comfort and minimal shrinkage. Its thermal and chemical resistance enables the fiber to withstand frequent washing and discoloration, ensuring extended garments life. Low heat setting allows the combination with wool, creating a harmonious blend of comfort and quality.
