CoatsKnit AWF is a textured filament yarn with a durable PFC-free anti-wick finish that stops moisture in its tracks. Once knitted into fabric, this yarn effectively repells water from typical knit patterns and eliminates the need for further treatments.
A textured filament yarn that can be twisted with filaments of up to six shades.
The combination of different coloured filaments gives CoatsKnit ColTwist an extraordinary melange effect that can be used for colourful and bright knitted shoe uppers.
As a part of our commitment to building a sustainable future, CoatsKnit ColTwist can be produced from 100% GRS Certified recycled materials as well as virgin origin
CoatsKnit Ultra is a 100% polyester yarn of trilobal cross sectional filament construction, offering a higher sheen after dyeing than standard circular filaments. Once knitted into fabric, this yarn reflects the light more effectively.
CoatsKnit Lucence is a Drawn Textured Polyester knitting yarn with a special ‘glow in the dark’ effect.
During the extrusion process photo-luminescent pigments are added to the Polyester polymer which gives this yarn its glow in the dark feature.
The yarn is 'charged' in sunlight or in artificial light (to a lesser degree) and emits a luminous glow quality when viewed in the dark.
CoatsKnit Mono is a 100% polyester dyed round cross-sectional monofilament. Once knitted into fabric, this yarn can provide increased breathability and moisture management, including excellent dyeing properties.
A 100% polyester yarn treated with an innovative process to give the finished yarn anti-microbial / anti-fungal properties.
The anti-microbial process creates a "zone of inhibition" that prevents the growth of bacteria and pathogens on the yarn where microbes like to harbour, leaving fabric crevices clean and fresh.
As a part of our commitment to building a sustainable future, CoatsKnit Protect can be produced from 100% GRS certified recycled materials as well as virgin origin.
CoatsKnit High Bulkiness is a high bulk textured filament yarn for knitting. Yarns of different stretch characteristics and bulkiness can be knitted into a variety of fabric constructions that provide a soft hand-feel and voluminous appearance to the final product.
As part of our commitment to building a sustainable future, CoatsKnit High Bulkiness can be produced from 100% GRS Certified recycled materials as well as virgin origin.
CoatsKnit FLX is a spandex yarn that is double covered (DC) by textured filaments and is ideal for knitting. Both outer filaments are continuously rotated around the core spandex, which is uniformly drawn in 2 twist directions (S+Z twist).
Once knitted into fabric, CoatsKnit FLX provides a smooth and crisp fabric construction with high elongation and recovery properties. Both filaments used for the covering process are treated with water repellent finish that give an additional feature to the final product.
As a part of our commitment to ethically building a sustainable future, CoatsKnit FLX can be produced from 100% GRS Certified recycled materials as well as virgin origin.
A 100% Recycled DTY Polyester yarn, which is GRS certified. This product can be made with AWF, Protect and ColTwist. It is also available in a low or high bulkiness configuration.
Coats Lattice Lite is a preform-to-component technology developed to create precise composites for use in active and safety footwear. Using an innovative fibre laying method, it places carbon yarns into the exact place and direction specified in your design, to control thickness, flex, torsion and rigidity through the forefoot, mid-foot and rear-foot, creating footbeds to enhance the wearer’s experience.
The sustainable version, Lattice Lite Eco replaces conventional raw materials with eco-friendly raw materials like recycled carbon or basalt fibre.
Lattice is an optimised continuous fibre laying technique to create preforms without cutting or chopping fibres. This allows customers to specify the exact position and direction of fibres for their application without compromising strength.
Coats Synergex™ Technology is a method of commingling dissimilar fibres for final property optimisation that enables you to create advanced, high-performance thermoplastic products that are lightweight yet extremely strong.
Offering a higher breaking strength and optimum stretch characteristics that enhance flexibility and comfort. Coats Nylbond cuts cleanly at thread trimming with no ply separation and provides superior abrasion resistance reducing downtime from thread breakages.
Coats Sylko is a trilobal polyester thread for machine embroidering with superior lustre, durability and smooth operation at the highest speeds. Sylko embroidery thread allows you to create beautiful, attractive logos and decorative seams on footwear.
