Oerlikon to showcase sustainable textile solutions at SaigonTex 2024.

Oerlikon Polymer Processing Solutions will be at SaigonTex 2024, exhibiting their expertise in sustainable machinery and systems for the textile industry. A comprehensive overview of their offerings, from initial stages like polycondensation systems to final textured yarn production and digital solutions will be on show. Notably, Oerlikon emphasizes its commitment to sustainability throughout the process.

Partnering companies like Oerlikon Barmag Huitong Engineering (OBHE), Oerlikon will showcase solutions for recycling bottles, textiles, and biopolymers, promoting a circular economy. Their e-save label highlights their 20-year history of providing sustainable textile industry solutions.

The innovative EvoSteam process from Oerlikon Neumag offers significant reductions in energy, water, and raw material consumption. This translates to lower operating costs and a smaller carbon footprint, all while maintaining excellent fiber quality and high production volume.

Oerlikon Barmag will present its range of DTY machines for efficient and sustainable production of high-quality textured yarns. These machines can handle various polymers, from traditional polyester and nylon to more recent bio-based options like PLA and PTT. Their modular design ensures optimal production costs and excellent yarn quality for further processing.

OBHE's homogenizing technology allows mechanical recycling of polyester waste like post-industrial scraps and plastic bottles. This innovative system creates a consistent melt and refines viscosity, enabling the production of defined rPET pre-products for further processing into fibers or other materials. Several such plants are already operational worldwide.
