DISTO® 3D Fabrics are distance weftknits with exceptional properties in terms of elongation, stiffness to compression and resilience. The patented product has been developed, produced  and marketed by Ames Europe.  DISTO® 3 D Fabrics consist of three seperate layers enabling us to use different yarns with e.g.  fire retardant, antistatic or antibacterial properties.

 

DISTO® 3 D Fabrics offer the following advantages:

 

    • Elongation in three dimensions
    • Excellent ventilation and moisture transport
    • Thicknesses of 3 - 6 mm
    • Durablity
    • Recyclability
    • Passed the Fire and Emissions test required for the Aviaton Authorities

 

The fabrics have been developed for different application, e.g.

 

    • Bedding : added comfort in pressure areas of mattresses
    • Boats/Aircraft :  boat interiors, foam replacement, FR properties
    • Automotive : added comfort, foam replacement, insulation
    • Footwear : liner in fire fighter boots
    • Filtration : airflow systems
    • Protective Clothing : added comfort and ventilation

 

Test results on compression, ventilation and fatique are available on request.
