B.I.G. Yarns reveals significant investment in its next-generation Polyamide (PA) technology to help global carpet tile manufacturers meet the demands of the contract market. In addition to this investment, the company also announces its decision to become a new producer of polyester (PET) yarns for the automotive industry. The two announcements reinforce the business’ leadership in yarn innovation and commitment to being at the forefront of supporting changing end-market needs, the company said in a statement.
B.I.G Yarns is stepping up its focus on developing and producing one-step 3Ply PA yarns using next-generation technology to answer needs for flexibility and broader design options in the carpet tile segment. Total production capacity for one-step 3Ply yarns will increase by more than 20% through new lines installed at the plant in France, creating higher output and greater supply security by serving customers from all three of its global plants.
