Staple Fiber
Staple Fiber is a short piece of fiber with crimps.
01
KAF's Staple Fiber
KAF produces staple fiber materials by using polymer materials such as Polypropylene(PP), Polyehylene(PE) and Polyethylene terephthalate(PET). In the spinning process, raw material polymers are melted at a high temperature to turn them into thread shapes. This is followed by a drawing process in which spun threads are extended and assigned crimps and functionality.
KAF's staple fibers are classified into Polypropylene(PP) Monocomponent staple fiber(single ingredient) and Sheath/Core style Bicomponent staple fiber(dual ingredients). Sheath/Core style Bicomponent staple fibers include PE/PP (polyethylene/Polypropylene) and PE/PET (polyethylene/polyethylene terephthalate) products. These are mainly used as raw materials for non-woven fabrics. Non-woven fabrics made of staple fibers are very soft and bulky.

Application
The staple fibers manufactured by KAF are mostly processed into non-woven fabrics; in some cases, they are processed into yarns.
01
Thermal point bonded nonwoven
Calender roll’s embo pattern leads to successful point bonding. As a result, flat and smooth products are created.
02
Air-through bonded nonwoven
Hot air in the oven melts the overall sheath to perform bonding. As a result, bulky and soft products are created.
