History The mass production of glass fibers first began in the 1930’s. The liquid is then extruded through bushings and are coated (sized) to help bundle the filaments and prepare the fibers for composite resin interface. Types E-Glass, S-Glass.

How switching to a different dyeing technology for fibers can reduce water and energy use However, for synthetic fibers manufactured by an extrusion process, such as polyester, polyamide, and polypropylene, there is another technology that uses no water and less energy than classic bath-dyeing: spin-dyeing. Our portfolio includes Renol™ Fiber Colorants specifically developed for polyester and polyamide (nylon) fibers and Remafin™ Fiber Colorants for polypropylene (PP) fibers and spunbond nonwovens.

They can also be customized and injection molded or overmolded to polypropylene (PP), making them useful for a range of interior applications.
