BRIGHTER COLORS
Enhanced color offerings
Diaper, adult incontinence and feminine hygiene product manufacturers now have access to an expanded color palette of LYCRA HyFit® fiber. The LYCRA Company increased capacity at its LYCRA® fiber manufacturing facility in China, providing additional flexibility to produce new color offerings. LYCRA HyFit® fiber has traditionally been offered in three standard colors: white, blue and green. Eight additional colors — red, black, grey, dark blue, dark green, pink, purple, and macron blue — are now available, with more in development. Additionally, customized colors can also be produced upon request.
Colored fibers are often used to designate the different sizes for personal care and hygiene products, to make differentiated product offerings with specific designs or to create styles with more color for aesthetically pleasing personal care and hygiene products.
