An antimicrobial polyester yarn developed by Turktex to provide lasting freshness from inside the fibre.
A TURKTEX innovation
BioNAT is a polyester-based synthetic yarn with antibacterial and antifungal properties. It helps block the growth and propagation of bacteria and fungi while reducing the odours they can create.
Unlike a temporary surface treatment, BioNAT receives its antimicrobial agents during melt spinning. This integrates the active function into the polymer structure and supports performance through repeated use, washing and abrasion.
From fibre to finished textile
Flexible constructions, one embedded technology.
How it works
01
Antimicrobial agents are added directly to the polymer during the fibre-forming process.
02
The integrated additive helps inhibit microbial growth and the odours linked to bacteria and fungi.
03
The function is designed to remain after repeated washing, abrasion and subsequent dyeing processes.

Manufacturing flexibility
Raw white BioNAT yarns are held in stock, while dope-dyed colours can be produced on demand. The BioNAT technology can also be applied to WoolNAT and NAT group yarns across available counts.
