Rubber Yarns

Rubber yarns are typically produced as double covered yarns (DCY), where an elastic core is covered with polyamide or polyester yarn.

The covering layer protects the elastic core and improves the yarn's durability, handling and knitting performance, making it suitable for modern knitting processes.

Our rubber yarn program includes double covered elastane and rubber / latex core yarns, commonly used in sock production and other elastic textile components where reliable elasticity and stability are required.
