TERRYL? is a bio-based polyamide fiber brand launched by Cathay Biotech for the textile industry. It is made from renewable plant raw materials. The bio-based content has been analytically verified by third-party laboratories using ASTM 6866 methodology to have renewable carbon content as high as 45%-100%. This effectively reduces the use of products made from fossil raw materials such as petroleum, and thus reduces carbon emissions. The environmental benefits and the sustainable nature of TERRYL? are not only reflected in its renewable source of raw materials, but also in the Live Cycle Analysis (LCA) of these products. The LCA, especially the reduced Global Warming Potential of these products, demonstrate the environmental benefit of TERRYL?.
All TERRYL? fiber products have excellent spinning and finishing properties. Compared with polyamide fibers from fossil ressources such as petroleum (e.g. PA6 or PA66), TERRYL? fibers have excellent wearing characteristics such as easy dyeing at low temperatures, soft and skin-friendly feel, good moisture and sweat absorption, good wear and weather resistance. Its natural flame retardant properties also bring unique application advantages in some special applications.
