Basofil® is an advanced technology melamine fiber designed to enhance commodity fibers and synergistic high-temperature fibers to deliver cost-effective, engineered heat-insulating and flame-resistant solutions.

Our patented technology produces unique fibers with excellent inherent characteristics for fire protection and heat stability – that are also durable and resistant to chemicals and ultraviolet light.

Basofil’s Processing Capabilities Meet – and Exceed – the Standard

Basofil supports processing capabilities on standard textile manufacturing equipment to produce woven, knit and nonwoven fabrics and can be converted to short-cut length fibers for use in wet-lay applications such as papers, friction pads or other materials.

Basofil Processing Features

• Improved finish
• Dyeability
• Blendability

Thermal Conductivity

Basofil is the most thermal-insulative fiber of all the inherently fire-resistant fibers.

Heat Dimenstional Stability

The ability to char in place rather than shrink or melt makes Basofil the fiber of choice in critical applications.
