Fleece tæpper til salg

Fleece tæpper, af nogle danskere kaldet flece tæpper, har vundet indpas i en mængde sammenhænge. Store fleece tæpper bruges som sengetæpper til sommerbrug, eller som ekstra tæppe at have liggende i bilen eller båden.

Små fleece tæpper bruges meget til småbørn, for eksempel til at holde babyen varm i barnevognen, eller til at svøbe spædbarnet i, når det bæres fra et sted til et andet. Børne fleece tæpper er også fine til klapvognen.

Fleece tæpper er nemme at vaske, selv om de kræver længere tid til at blive tørre. De findes i mange farver og smitter ikke af, da det er selve materialets farve, der giver fleecetæppet farve.

Det er interessant at fleece oprindeligt blev kaldt polar fleece. I Danmark mødte vi først fleece som materiale til fleece trøjer og fleece jakker, eller fleece foor og det var ganske dyrt tøj. Fleece bliver fremstillet udelukkende af recirkulerede plastikflasker (genbrug), sådan som det følgende uddrag fra den engelske udgave af Wikipedia fortæller:

Polar fleece is a soft napped insulating synthetic wool fabric made from PET. It was created in 1979 by Malden Mills; it was a new, light and powerful pile fabric meant to mimic and in some ways surpass wool. Polar Fleece has some of wool's finest qualities but weighs a fraction of the lightest available woolens. The creators, Malden Mills, named it "Polar Fleece", never suspecting that they were coining an industry-household word.

As of 1998, only the following companies manufactured Polar Fleece in America: Malden Mills, Dyersburg Corporation (leader in polar fleece manufacture today), Menra Mills, Huntington Mills, Siltex Mills and Glenoit Mills.

Polar Fleece is primarily used in sweatpants, gym clothes, hoodies, and inexpensive throw blankets. It is made entirely from recycled plastic bottles and is very light, soft and easy to wash.

Vi har brugt billige fleece tæpper til at vintersikre vore radiatorer i ødegården i Blekinge, og håber det holder os fri for frostskader i den kommende vinter.

Billige fleece tæpper kan købes hos blandt andet Jysk.

Polyethylene terephthalate (aka PET, PETE or the obsolete PETP or PET-P) is a thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family that is used in synthetic fibers; beverage, food and other liquid containers; thermoforming applications; and engineering resins often in combination with glass fiber. It is one of the most important raw materials used in man-made fibers.

Depending on its processing and thermal history, it may exist both as an amorphous (transparent) and as a semi-crystalline (opaque and white) material. Its monomer can be synthesized by the esterification reaction between terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol with water as a byproduct or the transesterification reaction between ethylene glycol and dimethyl terephthalate with methanol as a byproduct. Polymerization is through a polycondensation reaction of the monomers (done immediately after esterification/transesterification) with ethylene glycol as the byproduct (the ethylene glycol is recycled in production).

The majority of the world's PET production is for synthetic fibers (in excess of 60%) with bottle production accounting for around 30% of global demand. In discussing textile applications, PET is generally referred to as simply "polyester" while "PET" is used most often to refer to packaging applications.

It is manufactured under trade names Arnite, Impet and Rynite, Ertalyte, Hostaphan, Melinex and Mylar films, and Dacron, Terylene & Trevira fibers.
