Another area to which the latest Montex stenter has contributed to success for Orsa is the production of so-called ‘colour catcher fabrics’ – the strips that are employed in household washing machines to capture any loose dye particles and ensure clothing comes out the same as it went in.

Pernigotti and his R & D team have been working to add further functions to the colour catcher strips, including optical bleaching, which, according to him is difficult to achieve since it requires a combination of both cationic and other resins that are not naturally compatible.
