Cotton and other natural fibers based on cellulase can be enhanced by an enzymatic action known as Bio-polishing. This action gives the fabric a smoother and glossier emergence. The treatment is used to eliminate fluff - the minute strands of fiber that stick out from the surface of thread. A ball of fluff is called a 'pill' in the textile trade. After Bio-polishing, the fluff and pilling are condensed. The other profits of removing fluff are a softer and smoother handle, and better color brightness.
Goodrich Agrochem has developed the EnziTex series — specialized cellulases for the bio-polishing of fabrics.
