Hand feel, drape, volume, softness, together with a complete bio-polishing for a perfectly clean appearance, or elegant and sophisticated vintage effects for a lively and contemporary look on any cellulosic textile surface, without any defect and in complete safety. For more than 20 years this is all what the owners of a Biancalani AIRO machine with washing capabilities used to expect from their equipments.
Up to now all of these treatments using enzymes had to be performed exclusively in rope form, limiting application to specific fields and fabrics, with very high processing and labour costs. After intensive tests Biancalani can offer a new method for a completely open-width process from beginning to end, thanks to the high efficiency of the new continuous AIRO 24E machine.
Biancalani and leading chemical products developers joined their forces to offer a new way to develop and perfect the enzyme fabrics treatment, delivering high quality results.
AIRO 24E demonstrated its advantages of maintaining a fully open-width processing chain, reaching a production volume that is not possible with any existing rope processing system. While the standard Biancalani AIRO Quattro is already capable of producing around 500 metres (and also dry) of enzymed fabric, the continuous production with AIRO 24E easily reaches 1000-1500 metres/hour, in a streamlined open-width process (less labor intensive and much easier to control).
The users of this new method will notice a general reduction in the management costs and the opening of new perspectives for a wide range of their textile products. The enzymatic treatment will be extremely interesting for home textiles and fabrics for upholstery and for all large and heavy cellulosic fabrics, at extremely competitive prices.
