Texsafe
In technical applications, surface structures subjected to mechanical stress are often monitored only at specific points or after the fact. This development presents a solution based on knitted structures.
HuminTex
Researchers at the STFI have developed a bio-based and biodegradable textile composite for particle-filtering respirators, as well as a novel, environmentally friendly antiviral finish for it.
SefiPro
An eco-friendly, flame-retardant, abrasion-resistant and segmented protective coating, including a backing material, for fire-fighting clothing and for personal and occupational safety.
Biodegradable textile coatings
The chitosan-based textile finishes proved to be highly biodegradable, but still have shortcomings in terms of certain functionalities and durability.
