MATERIAL PROPERTIES

• High absorbency: Thanks to its double layer, double terry can absorb significant amounts of liquid, greatly enhancing its effectiveness in cleaning tasks
• Soft surface: Despite its robustness, double terry remains pleasantly soft and gentle on the skin, which is particularly advantageous when cleaning delicate surfaces
• Durability: The double structure ensures an extended lifespan of the material, even with frequent use and intensive cleaning

The Terrot I3P 196 is a high-system interlock and fine rib circular knitting machine that enables high production performance and is particularly suited for the production of double terry. It ensures precise and consistent manufacturing, resulting in consistently high-quality cleaning cloths. Thanks to its efficiency and versatility, the I3P 196 is the preferred choice to produce these medical textiles. Additionally, the circular knitting process ensures cost-efficient fabric production.

Knitted fabric: Double terry / double-sided loops - napping possible

The loops are created by stitch drop on rib and cylinder needles. The needle latches are opened in the following knitting system by yarn feeding over the well-known Terrot hold-down unit. These loops allow for excellent absorption of cleaning water and dirt particles.

APPLICATION AREA

In hospitals and laboratories, double terry cleaning cloths are highly sought after. They are used for disinfecting surfaces, absorbing liquids, and ensuring a sterile environment. Due to their high absorbency and durability, they are optimal for daily use in these demanding environments. Additional applications include wipes and gloves for sensitive surfaces, particularly in the automotive industry. The use of antistatic yarns also opens further possibilities in the electronics sector.
