Application of
Poly poly core spun yarn
Poly/poly core-spun yarn, where a continuous polyester filament forms the core and is
wrapped with
polyester staple fibers, offers a unique combination of strength, durability, and a soft, fibrous feel.
This makes it highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications, especially in textiles and
industrial uses.
Here are some of the key applications of poly/poly core-spun yarn:
Apparel and Garments
Denim
This is one of the most significant applications.
Car Seat
Strong, long-lasting threads from NKR ensure secure, neat stitching for durable and protective car seat covers.
Leather Industry

Home Textiles
Bed Linens and Pillowcases
The combination of robustness and comfort makes it suitable for durable and comfortable bedding.
Curtains and Draperies
Offers durability and good draping properties.
Upholstery
Its resilience and resistance to wear and tear make it a good choice for furniture upholstery, ensuring longevity.
Mattresses and Quilts
Used for stitching and potentially as fire barriers due to certain flame-resistant properties.
Industrial and Technical Textiles:
Conveyor Belts
Requires high strength and durability.
Safety Ropes
Critical for applications requiring extreme strength and reliability.
Geotextiles
Used in civil engineering for ground stabilization and erosion control, demanding high strength and durability.
Protective Clothing
Can be engineered for specialized protective applications.
Medical Textiles
Used in surgical gowns, drapes, and other medical fabrics where strength and durability are important.
Car Seat Cover
For high-performance fabrics in car interiors.
Tar Paulin
A heavy-duty, waterproof sheet used for protection against weather or damage.

Benefits that drive these applications
High Strength and Tenacity
The continuous polyester filament core provides exceptional breaking strength, often 40-50% higher than regular spun polyester threads of the same size.
Superior Abrasion Resistance:
The polyester wrapper and strong core contribute to excellent resistance against wear and tear.
Durability and Longevity
NKR threads offer exceptional durability and longevity, ensuring that seams remain strong and intact even after repeated washing, stretching, and daily wear.
Uniformity
NKR threads are known for their exceptional uniformity, maintaining consistent thickness, twist, and smoothness throughout every spool.
Good Sewability
Performs well on both manual and automatic sewing machines, minimizing interruptions and re-stitched seams.
Reduced Seam Puckering
A higher initial modulus (resistance to stretching) contributes to better loop formation and less puckering in seams.
Excellent Colorfastness
Resists fading, making it suitable for items that undergo frequent washing or exposure to light..
Low Shrinkage
Helps garments and textiles retain their original size and shape.
Soft Hand/Feel
The staple fiber wrapper provides a soft, comfortable feel, similar to natural fibers, which is desirable for clothing and home textiles.
Versatility
Can be used in a wide array of products, from fine fabrics to heavy-duty industrial applications.
Application of
spun polyester yarn
Spun polyester yarn is created by taking
polyester staple fibers (short, cut lengths of
polyester
fiber) and spinning them together, similar to how cotton or wool yarn is made. This process gives it
a fibrous, cotton-like feel while retaining many of the excellent properties of polyester. It’s a
highly versatile yarn and finds extensive applications across various industries.
Here are the main applications of spun polyester yarn
Apparel and Clothing
Casual Wear
This is a huge area for spun polyester. It’s used for shirts, blouses, dresses, pants, skirts, and T-shirts due to its comfort, wrinkle resistance, and durability.
Sportswear and Activewear
Its moisture-wicking properties (especially when treated) and quick-drying nature make it excellent for athletic apparel, workout gear, and swimwear.
Workwear and Uniforms
The resistance to abrasion, wrinkles, and fading, along with easy maintenance, makes it ideal for uniforms in various sectors like healthcare, hospitality, and manufacturing.
Lingerie and Underwear
The softness and smooth finish make it suitable for comfortable undergarments.
Bed Linens
Sheets, pillowcases, and duvet covers benefit from its durability, wrinkle resistance, and ease of care.
Curtains and Draperies
Offers good draping properties, resistance to fading from sunlight, and easy maintenance.
Upholstery Fabrics
Its resilience and resistance to wear and tear make it suitable for furniture upholstery, ensuring longevity.
Decorative Pillows and Throws
Provides durability and the ability to hold vibrant colors.
Towels
Can be used in blends for towels, contributing to durability and quick-drying properties.
Shirts
NKR’s high-quality threads deliver smooth, reliable seams for shirts that look sharp and stay strong wash after wash.
Pant
