Recycling Solutions for a Sustainable Future
- OBHE Homogenizer: Enables thermomechanical recycling of polyester waste, processing bottle flakes and industrial waste into high-quality PET products. The system ensures excellent melt quality and consistent polymerization conditions for direct spinning or PET chip production.
- VarioFil® R+ from BBE: A compact spinning system that recycles PET bottle granulate and start-up waste into POY. This system offers high flexibility, including spun-dyed yarn production, and is ideal for small batch sizes and specialized products.
- BBE’s VacuFil PET Recycling System: Designed for high-quality textile waste recycling, this patented system ensures excellent rPET melt quality, comparable to virgin material. It can process post-consumer waste, start-up lumps, yarn, and unmixed fabrics, offering modular and flexible processing solutions.
Advanced Texturing Technologies for High-Quality Yarns
Barmag’s DTY (Draw Textured Yarn) machines are designed for home textiles, clothing, and automotive applications. With configurations for polyester, polyamide, polypropylene, PLA, and PTT, these machines ensure maximum flexibility and efficiency while minimizing operational costs.
- JeTex® Air Texturizing System: Complements Barmag’s DTY system by expanding product portfolios to include high-quality ATY (Air Textured Yarn) for various textile applications. The system is available as a standalone or retrofit solution, allowing cost-effective upgrades.
- Bi-Shrinkage Yarns (BSY/ITY): Transitioning from niche to standard, these yarns are widely used in knitting, weaving, and fashion. Barmag’s one- and two-stage solutions offer energy savings, process flexibility, and superior fabric quality.
