Filling and stiffening agents
These auxiliaries are commonly used to enhance body, fullness, or rigidity in fabrics, particularly for garments and home textiles. Traditional stiffeners often include synthetic polymers or formaldehyde-releasing resins, posing health and environmental risks. Contemporary alternatives prioritize bio-based sources like starches, celluloses, and biodegradable resins. These offer comparable performance while reducing dependency on petrochemicals and improving end-of-life outcomes for treated textiles. B2B sourcing networks are instrumental in helping brands and mills transition to compliant, low-impact options that maintain desired fabric properties without compromising sustainability goals.
