Lavsan is a material of synthetic origin, one of the kinds of polyester. The key component of its composition is polyester fibres. The main properties of lavsan are strength, moisture and heat resistance, high wear resistance and the ability to hold its shape. It is widely used in the textile industry for sewing curtains and drapes. Lavsan products look smart, do not fade in the sun, do not collect dust and last for decades. In addition, lavsan is used as an additive in the production of other fabrics, which increases the elasticity and wear resistance of natural and artificial materials.
