Smart Fabrics

Now you see HEN 30 - Solufab, now you don't. That's because it's one of our range of Smart Fabrics created with special characteristics. In the case of HEN 30 - Solufab, it dissolves in water at specific temperatures. Which, if you're involved in embroidery, for example, may be perfect for your requirements.

We also manufacture Smart Fabrics that control odours and others that release dry loaded ingredients when submerged in water. But whether it's a molecular filter or colour changing wipes, you can be sure of meticulous attention to detail. And if you don't see your ideal Smart Fabric here, rest assured we're working on it.
