Dyeing & Finishing

The Barnstaple site, in addition to being the Company's Headquarters, is also home of the Dyeing and Finishing plant where a large range of plain and surface finished fabrics are processed on modern Jet and Beam dye equipment, supported by the latest 'state of the art' colour prediction and measuring technology.

Employing around 75 staff, many on a three shift basis, the plant is capable of dyeing and finishing around 300,000 metres of fabric per week.

A wide range of finishing routes for nylon or polyester warp knitted fabrics can be programmed including:

Beam Dyeing
Jet Dyeing
Brushing
Loop Raising
Finish Applications (incl: Resin, Antistat & Flame Retardant)
Inspection

A full range of testing equipment is available on site where the laboratory is accredited by Marks & Spencer plc and the MOD.
