Drake threads unique, customized and design-specific features into all of our products; but we are a known and trusted market leader in texturing yarns. 

Texturing can be done in a number of deniers and filament counts and a wide variety of fibers can be used: PET, rPET, N6/rN6, N-66/rN-66, HMPE, Meta aramid and Para aramid, PTFE. We work with multiple plies and have the ability to mix multiple yarns together creating unique hybrid yarns for our clients.

These abilities, combined with our specialized air jet texturing, false twist texturing and air entanglement techniques, open a world of opportunity to creatively produce yarns that outperform other materials in a wide array of markets and applications.
