Selvage Yarns

Packaging options include everything from bulk cones for the manufacture of edge warp beams to precision wound cones and king spools for on board creels or peg stands. Our proprietary, precision lubrication application reduces fiber-to-metal friction while maintaining a yarn that will not attract fly. Optimum levels of fiber-to-fiber friction ensure high efficiencies by securing the pic and precision winding maintains consistent yarn delivery tension to the weaving machine.
