Representation of fillers for composite and blended materials

Fibre Fillers: Tailored Solutions for Your Applications

At STW you can choose from a comprehensive range of fibre fillers. Employing unique grinding technology, fibre fillers are made from randomly-oriented fibres, continuous fibres, threads or woven textiles, again, often according to your individual requirements, and often using fibres from the recycling sector. In this way, depending on fibre fineness and specification, we can produce products with a high degree of purity and uniform fibre length distribution.
