TEIJIN's polyester hook-and-loop fastener offers extra-soft touch

摘要

FASTENANOTM, an extra-soft polyester hook-and-loop fastener developed and marketed in Japan by Teijin Ltd., will now enter the global market. FASTENANOTM uses Teijin's NANOFRONT polyester nanofiber-pile fabric for its loop surface, as well as polyester raised fabric for its hook surface. While FASTENANOTM achieves high adhesiveness when pulled in a horizontal direction, it separates easily when pulled in a vertical direction. The key is the pile fabric's high friction, which enables to twine effectively around the hook surface.
