A.T.E. has tied up with Matchpoint Textilmaschinenbau Deutschland GmbH for sustainable denim processing. Matchpoint, the developer and manufacturer of diamond tools for dry finishing of textile fabrics, has developed DDF – diamond denim finishing – a chemical-free pre-finish process for flat denim fabrics which supports colour-fading and stable soft-touch.
Matchpoint’s product – diamondpeach plus – has been developed specifically for the surface treatment of textile fabrics in order to create sanding/peaching effects. Matchpoint diamond emery paper can be used with different types of peaching machines. Existing sanding machines at mills can be easily upgraded with Matchpoint’s rollers to achieve micro-sanding effects. These upgrades also increase the machine productivity by 30 per cent and more.
A.T.E. is committed to provide up-to-date sustainable technology solutions to textile mills. A.T.E.’s partnership with Matchpoint is yet another step in this direction.
