Wilkie manufacture our own Spun Polyester yarn in our purpose built facility in Jiaxing, China whereby we twist Staple Polyester fibres together to make a cohesive thread, or "single”. These singles are then plied together to create a ply yarn up to 4 ply.
Wilkie have the ability to manufacture up to 4 ply yarn.
