Coats Group has introduced a fusible thread ‘Secura’ which helps secure buttons and also other decorative applications such as sequins and beads. The new thread has enhanced fixing security which is of particular benefit for buttons used in children’s wear. The bonding properties of the thread are heat activated, by steam or iron, which forms a durable bond between the stitches, and thus helps enhancing security by preventing the stitch from unravelling and also provides a cleaner finished appearance to the final garment than standard sewing threads as loose ends can be sealed using the same method.
Rajiv Sharma, CEO, Industrial, Coats Group plc, said, “Secura has been developed in response to feedback from our customers looking for ways to reduce returns of garments due to buttons, beads or sequins coming loose. Using Secura helps increase their confidence that buttons and decorative attachments will remain in place, as well as improving the appearance of the final garment.”
