The polyester partially oriented yarn market is segmented into three types namely

Polyester POY Bright Yarn

The global Polyester POY Bright Yarn market is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecast period. This is attributed to the rising demand for non-woven fabrics used in the textile industry and the shift toward smooth, soft, and lightweight fabric with high resilience. Moreover, growing sports participation owing to increasing awareness of health and well-being is also projected to boost market revenue growth.

Overview of the Market

The polyester partially oriented yarn market is segmented into three types namely – semi-dull, bright, and trilobal bright. The market is driven by rising demand for textured fabrics in garments, home furnishings, and automotive materials owing to their superior properties such as soft crimp, elasticity, and durability. Furthermore, these yarns find applications in textile processes such as crimping, twisting, texturizing, and dyeing.

The semi-dull and bright polyester partially oriented yarns are manufactured by spinning continuous filament from PTA, MEG, or polyester chips. The yarns are characterized by low strength and a high percentage of elongation. The yarns are suitable for warp knitting, weaving, and twisting.

The draw textured polyester partially oriented yarns are produced by texturizing a polymer fiber. The texturizing process involves the formation of a natural orientation or partial orientation in the molecular chains, which results in enhanced durability, elasticity, and retention qualities. Several other technical properties of DTY / DT yarns include good air permeability, excellent drape, higher color fastness, and better crease recovery.

The raw white POY is spun from polyester chips or masterbatch using Barmag technology, after which it is deformed into DTY or low elastic textured yarn. The raw white DTY is then dipped in the dope-dyed chemicals to obtain various colors such as grey, blue, red, orange, green, and yellow. The yarn is then packed loosely onto a perforated plastic tube before being dipped in the dyeing solution.

The DTY / DT YARN from India is available in various combinations of intermingled points. These are Non-Intermingle (NIM) having 0 - 10 knots/meter, Semi-Intermingle (SIM) having 40 - 50 knots/meter, and High-Intermingle (HIM) having 100 - 120 knots/meter.

DTY / DT yarns are mainly used in ladies' dress materials, shirtings, suits, sarees, knitwear, and home textiles. They are also preferred in men’s clothing due to their wrinkle resistance, crease recovery, and softness properties.

The fully drawn synthetic fiber filament is further obtained by spinning and drawing. The synthetic fiber filament is further obtained by spinning and drawing using texturizing machines. The fiber is then characterized by its texture and cotton feel, which results in enhanced durability, elasticity, abrasion resistance, and retention qualities.

Upon texturizing, the polyester fiber becomes similar to the natural fibers and is hence suited for producing fabrics. Moreover, this process also helps reduce the production cost and time required for manufacturing fabrics.

The market for polyester partially oriented yarns in Europe is anticipated to register a significantly fast revenue growth during the forecast period. The growth in the European market is primarily attributed to the rising demand for fabrics with high resistance and durability as well as abrasion resistance. Additionally, growing sports participation owing to increasing awareness about health and well-being is also projected to boost the market growth in this region.
