CURLY YARN

From the technical point of view, curly yarn is mainly divided into two types: AYT (Air Textured Yarn) curly yarn and KDK (Knit de Knit) curly yarn. Today, we mainly introduce the AYT curly yarn which is commonly used as thatch yarn in landscaping artificial grass. AYT curly yarn is extruded by yarn production machines as the straight yarn initially, then it is texturized by the air pressure in the equipment.

If you did not choose the right artificial grass from the right supplier. You may encounter many problems. One of the common problems is that the curly yarn float up, which makes the whole grass surface not look so good. The reason for this problem is most likely: that after the curly yarn is produced, it is not tufted in time.

The curly yarn must be tufted into a lawn within a period of time, preferably within a month. Otherwise, there will be a phenomenon that the curly filaments are not so curled, especially in summer when the temperature is high. And the temperature in winter is relatively low, which is slightly better, but it should not be delayed for too long.
