BELCOTEX® fibers

BELCOTEX® staple fibers are ideal starting materials for nonwovens, technical papers and fiber reinforced composites. BELCOTEX® fibers are available as SC - short cut staple fibers and as LC – long cut staple fibers.

BELCOTEX® 110 fibers were developed for the fabrication of high quality and durable nonwovens, technical papers and felts at which heat and fire protection, insulation and sealing functions are a priority.

  • Mean fiber diameter 9µm
  • Melting range > 1500°C

BELCOTEX® 225 fibers were particularly developed for applications during which in-situ high mechanical forces occur, e.g. vibrations and/or pressures at high temperatures. BELCOTEX® 225 is therefore particularly appropriate for fiber reinforcement of composites, high temperature filtration, complex heat and fire protections and insulation.

  • Mean fiber diameter 7.5µm
  • Melting range > 1500°C


  • Available fiber lengths from 3 to 26 mm
  • High single fiber tensile strength
  • Excellent fiber dispersion characteristics
  • Developed among others for fabrication of technical papers and felts, plates, formed parts, mouldables, castables, fillers, MMC, FMC etc.

  • Fiber lengths from 34 to 130 mm
  • High single fiber tensile strength
  • Excellent fiber dispersion characteristics
  • Qualified for needle-punched aerodynamic or carded nonwovens
