Teijin Frontier, the Teijin Group's fibre products converting company, has developed an advanced, high comfort, high density fabric DELTA 2000 that is said to offer excellent performance for use in outerwear. 

Excellent performance

DELTA 2000 is the latest addition to Teijin Frontier’s DELTA series of precisely balanced high performance materials suited ideally to sporting applications.

The fabric has a distinctive structure comprising a warp of densely and finely crimped bulky yarn and a weft of ultra-thin yarn.

According to Teijin, airspaces minimised three-dimensionally achieve 2,000 mm of water resistance, while an aerated fine-waffle structure provides excellent water-shedding performance. 

New applications

An uncoated fabric, DELTA 2000 is also said to offer excellent moisture permeability, a comfortably soft texture and a luxurious surface appearance. 

Teijin Frontier expects to develop sport, fashion and uniform applications for the new high-performance fabric.
