Compressing

When products such as compression stockings are used in medicine or in the rehabilitation sector, yarns with a very special function form the basis for them. The compressive effect is created by the special processing or wrapping of elastic components with a load-bearing component. Different yarns are used in the processing, depending on the required strength or elasticity of the end product.
Compression yarns are used in medicine to prevent venous diseases, thromboses and varicose veins. However, they are also an important component in products for the after-treatment of skin burns. The ideal combination of softness for perfect wearing comfort and elasticity or firmness for optimal medical effect is crucial.
