Cost of Elastification

The advanced winding technology of LYCRA HyFit® fiber provides trouble-free delivery and superior performance for high-speed diaper lines. This innovative fiber requires minimal elastic per unit while offering design versatility and meeting targets for unload force and draft.

Announcing Trio Loop Technology

The LYCRA HyFit® fiber package, combined with BTSR creel technology, is designed for OETO and continuous running at high speeds. The ability to eliminate downtime and run each package to the core can provide significant cost savings.

  • User-friendly, simple installation and maintenance
  • Various options available including a smaller footprint that’s better suited for baby and adult care applications with increasing ends of elastic
