"As polypropylene is lighter in specific gravity than natural fibres, weight for weight, you get more runnage for your money - almost double in some cases."

Bonar Yarns has been manufacturing quality PP backing yarns for Axminster & Wilton woven carpets, since 1970. Our commitment to quality and an extended range of products has made Bonar Yarns the Global Market Leader with a worldwide renowned reputation.

 

This commitment to quality and an extended range of products has made Bonar Yarns the market leader in the UK, Europe and indeed the world!

Bonar's polypropylene yarns have a higher tenacity than conventional spun yarns made from natural fibres or polyester thus reducing stoppages due to warp and weft breaks. As polypropylene is lighter in specific gravity than natural fibres, weight for weight, you get more runnage for your money - almost double in some cases.

In specialised areas such as aircraft and shipping line carpeting these weight savings are particularly beneficial.

Polypropylene yarns can also be made flame retardant to help the finished carpet system meet international FR standards. All these advantages come in a range of yarns with guaranteed consistent quality.
