Textiles in widths of up to 1200cm are at swisstulle AG still stretched and dried by hand. The refining process on hand tenter frames in widths of 800-1200cm is unique and there is no comparable technical solution. Both natural and synthetic materials can be processed. At least 8 people, many years of experience and sensitivity are needed to stretch straight in such wide latitudes. Synthetic fibers up to 800 cm of width are fixed to the hydrofixing system before dyeing for mass stabilization. After dyeing and finishing, the hand tenter frame is stretched to the desired size and, depending on the quality, it takes 30 minutes to 3 hours to dry. The drying is done by hot air, which comes from the heat recovery of the running frame.
