Product type
Polyester yarn is a synthetic fiber made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a type of plastic. It is produced through a process of polymerization, where the raw materials are heated and extruded into long strands that are then cooled and spun into yarn. This type of yarn is known for its strength, durability, and resistance to shrinking and stretching, making it a popular choice in various textile applications.
