Coated Yarns Industrial is our range of yarns developed for the technical-industrial world, with high performance and variety of applications in mind: yarns specifically designed to satisfy the growing needs of an ever-changing industrial reality, catered according to the different requests of our Customers.

Our Technicians thrive in this reality and strive to meet all the latest market requests. Our supply chain is proudly Italian and European, with providers fully certified under the standards of their respective fields.

Our Coated Yarns Industrial range includes yarns with cores of different nature such as, but not limited to:

• Fiberglass, Steel, Carbon, Aramid fiber, Basalt, Polyamide, High tenacity Polyester

which are covered in extrusion by coating with different thermoplastic materials:

• Co-Polyamide low melt, known for its high adhesive power and broadly used for fabric stabilization, it is also compatible with Epoxy resin. The variety we use is proudly derived from bio, renewable sources, in full compliance with our attention for the environment; Polyester low melt, which can be melted at low temperatures and easily bonded with other fibers;  Polyamide 12, with high resistance to abrasion and chemical agents; Peek, a superpolymer with melting temperatures above 300 ° C, used in the world of composites thanks to its unique mechanical properties; Polypropilene, due to its great compatibility with rubber; EVA, broadly used by virtue of its very low melting point and excellent adhesion properties; TPU, which features excellent resistance to abrasion, oils and fats, weather, wear and tear, light, solvents, therefore being an excellent multifaceted choice for a broad number of applications, and many other materials. Ageing stability and lightfastness are a given.

All of the above being available in a variety of customizable counts and core diameters, we also developed varieties with extreme resistance to abrasion and Flame Retardant properties. Depending on the final application and Customers’ specifications, we are able to design coated yarns with unique features, such as resistance to alkali, sea water, UV rays and much more: all in all, the combination of core and coat allows for customized, high performance solutions.

Our custom-engineered solutions provide technical answers to most industrial yarn requirements. Our coated yarns  are based on different core fibres, usually covered with polymeric materials in order to enhance their functional properties and make the end product suitable for a variety of fields, including Composites, Military, fabrics aimed at the structural reinforcement of buildings and infrastructures, Cables, Nets, Ropes, Workwear, Transportation and Telecommunications Industries.

Especially our CopaGlass yarns (eglass cores coated with CoPolyamide lowmelt, available in various counts) are the perfect solutions for fabrics stabilisation and reinforcement of Unidirectional, multiaxial fabrics and meshes (either in glass, carbon, steel, aramid or even basalt…), thanks to the compatibility of our CoPa with all kinds of resins used in the curing process and the complete nonshrinkage effect on the fabrics.

Coatyarn is a leading producer of high technology coated yarns, suitable to a big range of applications, from reinforcement and stabilization of fabrics to the automotive, from furniture to cables, from ropes to defence, …

We offer a variety of combinations between cores and coats: among the core fibers we use there are e-glass, high tenacity polyester, stainless steel, basalt, aramid fiber, cordura and polyester; coated by extrusion with high performing thermoplastic polymers such as TPU, low melt bio based co-polyamide, low melt co-polyester, EVA, polyamide 12, polypropylene, PEEK, and special polymers such as PPS or PVDF.

We have recently developed a new coated yarn which could offer a solution upstream, in creating the backing fabric on the loom.

Our coated yarn can be inserted in the weft direction and, after the tufting is done, an infrared light can easily melt the Copolyamide coating, bonding the fibers together. An eventual further calendering process could help getting a more flat and rigid backing.

There are multiple advantages offered by our technology:

• Alternative to latex backing, which is difficult to recycle and tends to leak chemicals in the environment over time
• Shorter curing times, with cost and energy saving
• Antifraying effect when cutting the carpet.
• Longer carpet life, as the calendaring process would make it more rigid increasing the tuft pulling resistance
• Our coating is largely made from renewable sources

Our coated yarns can also be a successful solution for woven carpets: the coated yarn we developed could help getting great edge-cutting and anti-fraying. Considering the low melting point, it would imply also saving of time and cost for energy and heating.

All the while caring for the environment and trying to make our products as sustainable as possible, in addition to always being on the lookout for new ways to reduce the ecological footprint.

Biodegradabilty related projects: developed with trusted institutions and partners, by use of soil - or sea biodegradable polymers

TPU Evolution® is our 100% made in Italy and 100% recyclable polyurethane yarn that gives space to your creativity, thanks its infinite possibilities of use and the wide range of colors and counts available.

TPU Evolution® can be used for all kinds of knitted creations, on flat bed or circular machines, as well as for shuttle fabrics: it is successfully used for the creation of bags, outdoor and safety shoes, sneakers, outerwear, but also sweaters, ribbons, accessories, furniture and more technical wear and applications.

TPU Evolution® can be knitted or waived by itself or in combination with any other yarn, from the traditional noble fibers to the most technical fibers.

TPU Evolution® guarantees a very high resistance to abrasion, hydrolysis, solvents, oils and greases, UV rays and aging. It is also permanently antimicrobial and enhances the brilliance of colors.

TPU Evolution® is Oekotex Class 1 certified and produced according to a zero-waste logic: it is a sustainable yarn, 100% recyclable, solvent-free, and colors are produced with water-free technology. 

Tpu Evolution(R) is successfully used for the production of shoes, both outdoor, sneakers and safety shoes.

For safety shoes, Tpu Evolution(R) grants a really excellent resistance to abrasion, weather, wear and tear, oils, greases and solvents. 

When used for knitted shoe uppers, Tpu Evolution can be inserted in the areas that need reinforcement, such as tip and heel, or for logos and skins. The result is a shoe upper that can be produced in one go, with logos and skin effects already incorporated. The finishing treatment allows for different degrees of lamination and matt or glossy effects. One knit, one shot, one shoe.

Coatyarn Srl is leader in the production of high-performing and high-tech coated yarns:

these are yarns with cores in various technical fibers (from Polyester to e-glass, from steel to carbon, only to quote some available materials), coated with thermoplastic polymers, such as COPES, TPU, TPE, EVA, until “special” polymers like PVDF, PPS e PEEK.

We have also developed some coated yarns especially created for the braiding process on cables and harnesses.

These are available in standard and also in very high-performing materials, with great resistance to stress, weathering, chemicals, high temperatures, and flame retardant properties (as for example PVC, PVDF and TPU).

Some of the advantages follow:

  No liquid or moisture retention

 No trapping of dust and small particles

  Heat dissipation

  Flexibility at low temperatures

  Easier installations

  Tamper-proofness

  Minisation of wire-to-wire movement

  Enhanced wear resistance

Our products are available in different counts and packagings, as well as in various combinations of cores and coats. We can also develop customised solutions, to satisfty specific clients’ requirements.

Specifically, we can supply smaller bobbins ready for use on braiding machines, or discuss any necessities you may have and create custom products.
