TEXTILE IS OUR PASSION
THE CUSTOMER IS OUR REASON FOR BEING.



MORE THAN EVER, EUROPEAN TEXTILES ARE THE FUTURE!

 

UTEXBEL is convinced that prosperity and ecology can go hand in hand.

We believe that prosperity comes from a strong manufacturing industry. By
producing locally in Europe under strict conditions, you also keep the
ecological footprint as low as possible and make the supply chain more robust.

Thanks to our passion for textiles and sense of innovation, we are constantly
pushing boundaries.

As a result, we have been able to create added value for our customers for more
than 90 years.

textile group from fiber to finished fabric, market leader in public
procurement, industrial protective workwear, leisure wear and technical

the safety and comfort of the end users are paramount.

KEYPRODUCTS


MOVE COLLECTION

At the end of the 90s, Utexbel were the first to succeed in making  a durable
blend of polyester cotton stretch fabrics for corporate wear. These products are
still being worn daily across Europe by many public authorities.

Later, we were the first to industrially produce fabrics for workwear, using
elastolefin. These products are in use at most laundries in Europe today.

In addition, we have created a workwear collection using T400 (Coolmax- label)
which has an optimal moisture transport function.




REFIBRA

Refibra is a cellulose fibre made from clothing waste and sustainably managed
wood. In use, this fibre is very similar to cotton but is much more ecological:
no pesticides, much less water consumption, the basic raw materials are all
sourced in Europe and the fibre as such is already partially circular.

When mixed with e.g. recycled polyester we obtain a durable and sustainable
fabric for shirts or workwear.




LAVAPRO

This is a blend of Lenzing FR (inherently fire resistant cellulose) ,
para-aramid and polyamide.  This allows us to combine the benefits of treated
cotton (protection against welding drops and molten iron) with those of
inherently fire retardant products (abrasion, shrinkage, washability at higher
temperatures)

Within this range we offer different weights , where the heaviest even achieves
in a single layer class 2 for welders (EN ISO 11611). It is ideally suited for
industrial applications where protection against heat and flames (EN ISO 11612),
explosions (EN ISO 1149/5) electric arc (EN 61482-2-1, EN 61482-1-1)  and
chemicals (EN ISO 13034) are needed, all with the highest level of comfort for
the wearer.

KERMEL ALPHA AND LCI

Here the main component is Kermel, (a polyamide-imide, family of the meta
aramids) which is mixed with modacrylic, cellulose and in the case of the LCI,
also polyamide. These antistatic fabrics are cheaper and more comfortable than
the 100% aramids, offering the same level of protection against flames, heat an
electric arc.




DR GREEN

Utexbel has an extensive and steadily growing collection (for sportswear and
workwear, corporate fashion and protective wear) in organic and/or  fairtrade
cotton,  BCI-cotton and recycled PES.

Dr. Green goes beyond this.

Used, end-of-life garments are collected from laundries,  taken apart, shredded
and used as new material in our spinning process for the weaving of new workwear
fabrics, closing the loop .




CAMOUFLAGE FABRICS

Apart from our basic camouflage fabrics in polyester cotton or Nyco blends, with
or without stretch, all with nIR technology which we produce for virtually every
European army, we also deliver a whole range of inherently antistatic and
 antiflame  products with a variety of possible finishes.

All products are produced according to the highest technical standards and
respecting the strictest European environmental rules.
