About shaped
filament technology

By precisely controlling their cross-sectional form, we can create filament structures that deliver distinct advantages over conventional round filaments.

Yarn structure

Pertex Diamond Fuse filaments have a uniquely engineered rhomboid form, providing significantly increased durability to fabrics woven from them.
