DRYING
This important step in the enhancement of the yarn, is made with a modern hot dryer that ensure uniformity in the drying process and volumizing of the yarn through the rotation and enlargement of the skeins inside the room. The particular type of ventilation, the temperatures employed, the residence time in the room and the preconditioning both in the last room and outside, allows the yarn to obtain a high volumization and an excellent final touch with due to the right degree of humidity. This type of drying is specifically suitable for knitting yarns.
