Welcome to Purtex®: the eco-friendly, 100% solvent-free polyurethane treatment for the ultimate textile finishing and coatings
Kind to textiles, kind to you
Purtex is a solvent-free, water-based polyurethane emulsion that can be quickly and easily applied to any textile to achieve a range of desirable characteristics. It is completely safe, both to the people who work with it and to the natural environment.
Tough protection from the elements
Purtex makes textiles soft to the touch, highly durable and wear resistant, water repellent, and
UV-resistant. Purtex prevents pilling and prolongs fabric life, even in garments that experience extremely hard use or frequent washing.
Easy and economical to use
Purtex can be safely and easily applied using existing wet finishing processes, without the need for equipment modification or retooling.
Complete application flexibility
Depending on the textile’s intended application, Purtex can be custom-formulated to create specific characteristics. From specialist textiles for workwear to high-wear domestic fabrics or the ultimate in performance sports clothing; there is no limit to where Purtex can be applied.
Kind to the environment
Purtex is not only a highly effective textile surface and finishing treatment. Because it is 100%
solvent-free and safe to use, it helps to fulfil the environmental aims of both textile manufacturers and consumers alike.
