-Companies embrace invisible barcode to aid in sorting

A major packaging producer will begin using a discrete barcode technology that can provide optical sorters with critical recycling information.

Berry Global Group announced it will incorporate the barcode technology from Beaverton, Ore.-based tech company Digimarc on its plastic packaging. The digital barcodes can be incorporated into labels or the plastic packaging itself, but they’re not perceptible to the eye. Petrochemical acrylonitrile Cellulose Fibres

-From Prada to Zegna, Max Mara and Gucci, fashion becomes green

Recycling, circular economy, ethical business approach. The groups and fashion houses of the fashion system are increasingly close to these themes, and this year more than ever they have brought the fruit of their commitment to the shops and catwalks
Sustainability is one of the hottest topics in recent years.

And in 2019 a focus that has massively affected the world of fashion, also thanks to the requests of increasingly sensitive consumers in terms of environmental respect, eco-sustainability and circular economy.Petrochemical acrylonitrile Cellulose Fibres

The big fashion brands, often pioneers of a green production, innovators for the use of particular fabrics with zero environmental impact, or sometimes even unrelated to this theme, have however used forces and resources to adopt new eco solutions, eliminate from their production polluting substances or fabrics or animal skins and devise initiatives that show the sustainable approach of their company.

PRADA Re-Nylon

The Milanese maison of Miuccia Prada and Patrizio Bertelli has fostered the union of one of the most iconic symbols of Prada, nylon, to the work of Aquafil.

The Trentino-based company has been for 50 years among the first companies in the world known for the production of synthetic fibers, especially polyamide 6, i.e. nylon.

That of the new models of iconic Prada branded backpacks and bags, as announced in June 2019, is called Econyl and will come precisely from the recycling of fishing nets and floor carpets, supplied by Aquafil. Petrochemical acrylonitrile Cellulose Fibres

-New BASF low-viscosity thermoplastic has wide scope

BASF is expanding its Ultrason P product range with a low-viscosity grade that is suitable for manufacturing large, complex-shaped components such as inflight catering dishes and heat-resistant containers with thin-walled geometries.

The new grade, named polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) Ultrason P 2010, is claimed to offer improved flow behaviour in injection moulding while maintaining the mechanical properties of Ultrason P.  Petrochemical acrylonitrile Cellulose Fibres

This characteristic means that during processing, raw material use, energy consumption and component weight can be reduced: the tool is also claimed to fill up at lower injection pressures and processing temperatures.

-TANATEX Chemicals: Speed-Up Polyester Dyeing Times

Polyester accounts for more than 50% of the global textile fiber market – no matter the end use.

That’s a lot of polyester needing to be pre-washed, dyed and finished, packed and distributed to customers all around the world.

The dyehouse manager might confirm that pressure is on to deliver high quality products while speeding up their processes. Petrochemical acrylonitrile Cellulose Fibres

Generally, dyeing polyester takes up to 200 minutes including reduction clearing.

Can you speed up, and still reach high quality while saving out on energy, valuable process time and water? We see opportunities to do this in several ways, but the most effective way is probably to reduce polyester dyeing time.

When done right, this measure can reduce energy usage by 30%.
