Optim™ Fine – a new generation of ultra-fine fibres with a structure and physical properties that closely resemble silk, providing weavers and knitters the scope to create high quality, sophisticated, lightweight fabrics that are soft to handle. Fabrics made from Optim™ Fine fibres have a silk-like touch, fluid drape, distinctive sheen and subtle lustre, plus the natural performance benefits of wool.
The advanced equipment developed to produce Optim™ Fine fabrics typically uses twisted wool sliver of 19 microns, which stretches by some 40-50%, making each fibre 3 to 3.5 microns finer. The reduced micron fibre is then chemically set in this finer form and results in a fine, lustrous, silky soft strong fibre.
