Low-Dosage Compound Sizing Agents<\/h1>\n

Every kilo of size that goes onto the warp has to come off it again, and the mill pays for that at the treatment plant. Lowering the dosage by up to 35 percent lowers what has to be washed off, with the same film strength and the same loom stability.<\/p>\n

WHAT IT IS<\/p>\n

Less on the yarn, the same on the loom<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Global chemical regulators are raising the bar for sustainability, pushing chemical suppliers, brands, mills, and entire textile supply chains to reduce overall chemical usage, hazardous discharge, and environmental impact. Alpenol anticipated this shift and reimagined sizing from the ground up, engineering low-dosage solutions that align weaving performance with these global demands. Alpenol’s advanced textile sizing agents boost weaving efficiency by cutting dosages by up to 35%, lowering chemical load, reducing effluent impact, and trimming overall costs, while preserving fabric quality and loom stability.<\/p>\n

Supplied as a single, ready-to-use compound, they eliminate the need for binders, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and other additives, delivering the performance of a complete sizing system with simpler preparation and consistent results.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

WHY MILLS SWITCH<\/p>\n

Sizing less is the cleanest way to size<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Dosage is the one lever that reduces cost and effluent at the same time, because the chemical you never add is the chemical you never have to treat.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Up to 35 percent less chemical<\/h3>\n

Less size bought, less stored, less carried onto the yarn and less arriving at the effluent plant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Easier desizing<\/h3>\n

A thinner film desizes faster, so the wash box works less hard and the desizing liquor carries a lighter load.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Time and resources saved<\/h3>\n

Shorter wash cycles and lower oxygen demand on the treatment side, against the same weaving performance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Sustainability targets met<\/h3>\n

Lower COD and higher BOD per beam, and OEKO-TEX, GOTS and ZDHC Level 3 documentation ready for the audit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
