The Indian market for carpets is very promising and still in the initial phase of growing: The Indian carpet manufacturers are now willing to benefit from all the advantages of SUPERBA’s latest generation of heat-setting lines (TVP3) in terms of energy saving, high productivity and efficiency. The Indian market for the carpet industry is at the dawn of a technological mutation and will rapidly grow in the coming years. SUPERBA will participate in this modernization by supporting the Indian industry not only with its machines but also with its extended knowledge gained over the years of the carpet markets worldwide.
SUPERBA’s lines are designed to perform efficiently through five necessary industrial processes in the manufacture of carpets or rugs. After extrusion and twisting, heat-setting is an important process for the twist set as well as, in some cases, fixation of the dyestuff.
Heat setting of carpet yarns is a necessary operation to get a high quality woven or tufted carpet. SUPERBA’s heat-treatment process is currently the best in the market as a treatment using saturated steam under pressure. This process gives the carpet a high quality and definition due to the “pin-point effect”.
The flooring industry is always looking for innovation, alternatives and differentiating development areas. This is the reason why SUPERBA is also now proposing GREENTEX, an innovative texturizing machine for the artificial turf. This new line allows to realize the well-known Knit De Knit (KDK) technology. It is a continuous process, and all kinds of PE, PP or PA yarns can be texturized to be used on different types of artificial turf like hockey fields, football fields, tennis courts, landscaping, etc. The artificial turf market is steadily gaining ground worldwide with about 15 per cent growth per year.
SUPERBA’s main concern is to provide its customers with high quality industrial machines incorporating the latest innovative automation technology. All its machines are manufactured in France. The company attaches utmost importance to product quality and durability as well as the safety of people operating the machines.
