From fibers to fabrics - performance solutions for textile manufacturing

From fiber production to final finishing, every stage of textile manufacturing presents unique technical challenges. Whether it is static buildup that halts production lines, inconsistent dyeing that requires costly reprocessing or compliance requirements that seem impossible to meet while maintaining performance.

At Clariant, we understand these challenges because we have spent decades solving them. Our comprehensive portfolio of performance-driven additives delivers what the textile industry demands: consistent quality, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency. From the first fiber to the finished fabric.

Fiber manufacturing

Static buildup. Fiber breakage. Inconsistent spin finish penetration. Foam disruptions. High-speed synthetic fiber production presents unique challenges that can halt your operations and compromise quality. Our Hostaphat™, Genagen™, and Hostapal™ solutions deliver superior static control, enhanced lubrication, and optimized wetting.

Hydrophilization agents

  •
    TexCare SRN 300
    TexCare SRN 300 is used in textile finishing process to improve ease of ironing and to improve the removal of oily and fatty stains significantly. The soil release polyester is adsorbed on the hydrophobic fibres and forms a hydrophilic film. This prevents the hydrophobic and oily soils from adhering directly to the fibres and supports the removal in subsequent laundry with fabric cleaners. Furthermore, the affinity of hydrophobic soils for the hydrophilic film is reduced significantly compared to the untreated fibres, making it much easier to remove oily stains from the fabric during subsequent washing.
