Octa®
Features
Special Cross Section Fiber Octa®
Through a variety of fiber shapes, we can add the perceptual qualities of softness, draping, dry touch and the functionalities of sweat absorption, quick drying, non-see-through, lightweight, heat retention, and thermal insulation. Octa® is an exceptionally unique polyester fiber with a distinctive, highly modified cross-section with eight projections aligned in a radial pattern around a hollow fiber.
The voids in 8 fin fiber structure improve heat shielding and insulation properties, as well as create the lightweight feel of hollow yarn at roughly 50% weight of yarn of similar thickness.
