What differentiates us in the polyester fibre industry?

Wellman have always had a strong presence in the fibre Industry, with a clear understanding of the need for consistent quality, performance improvement, technological advancement, while ultimately delivering in a mutually cost efficient manner. As one of our key areas of strategic focus, significant resources have been allocated to these products by the company with considerable trial work being undertaken with specialist polymers and fibres with extremely promising results being demonstrated by these fibre and polymer combinations. In recent years, Wellman have commissioned fine dtex capability, which broadens our dtex range from 1.7 dtex to 28 dtex, expanding the range of solutions which Wellman can offer.
