All over the world! We use many different suppliers in order to provide a wide variety of textures and colors. The fibers we use originate in countries such as Italy, France, Belgium, Brazil, and even the US. All of the assembly and packaging, however, are done within the United States.

Timeless Touches fibers are all quality, high-grade commercial design fibers used by knitters and weavers. The fiber content varies and includes cotton, wool, linen, silk, mohair and rayon. See similar questions...

Let's deal with one at time. Cotton is a great fiber for outer apparel. It is cool and breathable; and it feels good next to the skin. Unfortunately, in the closed environment of a shoe, it becomes the enemy of the foot. During activities both mild and vigorous, the foot perspires. Cotton is what is called a hydrophilic fiber - it attracts and absorbs moisture. As the cotton fiber gets wet, the fabric collapses and loses all of its protective capabilities.

There are typically three explanations: 1) the Felt manufacturing process, 2) the application the Felt is under, and/or 3) the type fiber used to manufacture the felt is not suitable for the application. The Felt Manufacturing Process : requires a set "needling" procedure to insure interlocking of the fibers so they will not "pull" out or simply "lay" on the surface. See similar questions...

They differ in many ways, but as reinforcement for concrete, these differences are especially notable. Polypropylene, nylon and the other synthetic fibers used in concrete serve only one purpose: to restrain plastic shrinkage during the first 24 hours after concrete is poured. Because of their high elongation, or "stretchiness", these fibers are essentially useless for the drying shrinkage and other sorts of cracking that all concrete suffers from.

The nerve cell body remains intact, and only the "sending" or "receiving" fibers have to regrow as longer extensions from the nerve cell body. The peripheral nerves, outside the brain and spinal cord can do this quite easily. But within the brain and spinal cord there is much impediment to such regrowth. See similar questions...

Wicking (capillary action) is the process by which moisture spreads out and moves from a wet area to a drier area. Wicking takes place because moisture has a greater attraction to the drier parts of the wicking fiber than it has to itself. However, wicking fibers are part of the problem because as the moisture wicks along the fiber, the greater adhesion of the moisture to the fiber causes it to leave moisture behind on the fiber.

UltraFiber 500™, with all its benefits, offers a significant combined advantage versus polypropylene fibers - superior finishing, excellent crack reduction, improved hydration, better bonding with cement, higher fiber tensile strength, cost effective bulk dispensing, and more. See similar questions...

UltraFiberUltraFiber 500™ provides a hydration enhancement not possible with polypropylene fibers. UltraFiber 500™ fibers are hydrophilic meaning they readily absorb up to their weight in moisture - polypropylene fibers repel moisture. As concrete hydrates and water eventually becomes scarce, UltraFiber 500™ fibers will gradually release the absorbed water to allow unhydrated cement to hydrate. This results in concrete containing less unhydrated cement. See similar questions...

Generally no. However, multimode fiber can be used on the receiving leg if the bandwidth is not prohibitingly high. See similar questions...

Some information about fabric is included with most of the item descriptions. If you need more information than is included there, please send us an inquiry at sales@priyankas.com or from the Contact Us page with the item number and description. We do want to assure you that all our fabrics (including those with synthetic fibers) are of a very high quality. Also, we generally use cotton linings in our garments so that any synthetic fiber does not come directly in contact with the skin. See similar questions...

A specific formula of Bio Ceramics are made into a powder. The powder is then mixed into a liquid polyester. The liquid mix is then extruded into fibers. These FIR Fibers possess the same characteristics of polyester fabrics used in a wide variety of clothing materials. See similar questions...

Point Source fibers have high efficiency because of the design configuration and quality of optical component employed. We also have a manufacturing quality system that ensures consistency in product performance from one unit to the next. See similar questions...

Sisal, seagrass and mountain grass area rugs and wall-to-wall carpet have excellent durability for residential and light commercial applications. The machine woven, natural fibers are anti-static, non-toxic and colorfast. The plant material creates healthy indoor humidity levels and prevents the build-up of static. See similar questions...

For rugs that can be used outdoors see our new complete line of outdoor rugs. Natural fiber floor coverings are for indoor use only and should be used in a covered area; protected from the elements. Natural fiber rugs are highly recommended for enclosed and screened porches. Do not expose to rainfall or allow to become water saturated (i.e. sisal and seagrass are NOT for bathroom, sauna, Jacuzzi, uncovered patio deck, swimming pool or roof top patios).

There are many wonderful fibers we can eat, but only Fat Absorb has the ability to magnetically attract and bind fat making it indigestible. It is the only fat binding fiber ever discovered. In fact, Fat Absorb is the only known substance that will bind excess fat in this way. See similar questions...

a. Polypropylene (also called Olefin) is the most durable and stain-resistant rug fiber. It is a synthetic yarn and is the most commonly used area rug fiber. On average, olefin is soft in texture and is fade resistant. b. Nylon is another synethic fiber commonly used in rugs. Its characteristics include: strong and elastic, retains its shape, and it is shiny. c. Wool is a natural fiber that comes from sheep, most commonly from New Zealand and Australia.

Yes. PVA has been used extensively to replace GFRC, producing a less expensive, lighter and more durable product. See similar questions...

PVA fiber is about the same price as glass, but you use 1/3 as much, so it ends up being much less expensive. It is a little more expensive than polypropylene and nylon, but it offers far greater performance. No. Even the best AR glass degrades in strength dramatically over time, up to 80%. Field studies have shown that PVA degrades about 1% over 20 years. See similar questions...
