About shaped
filament technology
By precisely controlling their cross-sectional form, we can create filament structures that deliver distinct advantages over conventional round filaments.
Pertex Y Fuse filaments have a uniquely engineered Y form, tightly interlocking to create highly stable yarn structures.

Whereas conventional, circular sectioned filaments lie loosely side by side, Y Fuse filaments interlock tightly in layers to create a unified yarn structure. Fabrics created using Y Fuse yarns have greatly enhanced downproof and water beading properties.
