Polyester – The versatile textile material
Polyester is one of the most widely used synthetic fibers in the textile industry and is particularly valued for its durability, ease of care and versatility.
What is polyester?
Polyester is a synthetic fiber derived from petroleum. Through chemical processes, it is produced as a durable material used in many areas of the fashion and textile industry – from clothing and bags to home textiles.
Advantages of polyester
- Durable & long-lasting: Polyester is highly resistant to wear, stretching, and shrinkage.
- Easy care: Dries quickly, hardly wrinkles and is machine washable.
- Dimensionally stable: Retains its shape even after frequent washing.
- Colorfast: Colors stay vibrant longer and don't fade as quickly.
- Moisture-repellent: Absorbs little water and dries faster than natural fibers.
- Cost-effective: Cheaper to produce than many natural fibers
- Versatile: Can be mixed with other fibers to achieve optimal properties.
Applications of polyester
Polyester is found in numerous products:
- Clothing (sportswear, outdoor clothing, everyday fashion)
- Bags and backpacks (as lining material or outer material)
- Home textiles (bed linen, curtains, upholstered furniture)
- Technical textiles (seat belts, tents, sails)
Polyester in our products
We use high-quality polyester as lining material in many of our bags and accessories. The polyester lining ensures:
- Durability and resilience in daily use
- Easy cleaning and quick drying
- Shape retention, so that your bag keeps its shape
- Protect your valuables
Care of polyester
Polyester is particularly easy to care for:
- Machine washable at 30-40°C
- Dries quickly in the air.
- Ironing at low temperature is possible (if necessary).
- Stains can usually be removed easily.
sustainability
While polyester is made from petroleum, increasingly sustainable alternatives such as recycled polyester (rPET), which is derived from recycled plastic bottles, are becoming available. This option reduces the environmental footprint and contributes to a circular economy.
