Invista Presents Lycra® Fusion Long gone are the days of run in stockings thanks to Invista’s latest invention, Lycra Fusion. Created with state of the art yarn technologies, stockings that will not rip themselves apart are now available on the market. Unlike all other solutions already available, this innovation is bicomponent, which allows the external part to “melt” during the stockings’ thermo fixation, creating greater resistance for the product, while keeping the stretching and elastic quality that has made Lycra’s reputation. No specific process is needed to use this new fibre, which makes it easier for all manufacturers to adopt the new fibre. L ycra® Fusion is leading the way for a whole new set of developments yet to come in the hosiery business.
