D Core Indigo

Leave a reply

A variation on A&E’s D-CORE® premium core spun sewing thread manufactured with continuous filament polyester core and cotton staple wrap dyed with Indigo dyes. This construction provides a sewing thread with a higher strength over staple spun products. The Indigo dyes tend to wash down similar to the body fabric, allowing the thread to blend with the finished garment.


Thread Construction – Core Spun – Cotton Wrap


Finish – Soft


Application – Jeans, Denims


Available Tex sizes– 24, 30, 40, 60, 80, 105, 120, 150,180, 240

Advantages

  • Excellent sewability on manual and automatic multi-directional sewing machines.
  • Good seam strength and abrasion resistance
  • Can provide a wash- down appearance. Since finishing techniques differ we encourage those interested to obtain samples and test for intended results. Vardhman does not guarantee consistent wash down effects using D-Core® Indigo.
  • There is natural variation in the shading of the thread prior to sewing and laundering

Performance you can count on


Continuous Filament Polyester Core Construction :

  • Excellent uniformity for consistent performance
  • Recommended for garments subjected to enzyme, stone and chemical washes
  • Excellent Resistance to micro-organisms, mildew, abrasion, ultraviolet radiation and
    chemicals
  • Reduces downtime and rejects due to seam failure and minimizes repairs after laundry

Cotton Wrapper

  • Superior resistance to needle heat and heat applied during laundering
  • Contribute to excellent loop formation that will minimize thread breakage and skipped
    stitches
  • Ideal for contrast stitching and wash down effect on denims. Pre-production wash testing is recommended to assure that the wash down look is acceptable

Superior Strength per Size – higher tenacity than 100% Spun thread Costructions

  • Allows the use of finer thread sizes to minimize seam puckering
  • More yards per bobbin-fewer bobbin changes
