Synthetic Polymers
Synthetic polymers, including zero formaldehyde acrylic patented polymers
Synthetic polymers are man-made polymers, synthetized to obtain specific characteristics or for a particular finishing effect on the garment.
On jeans, denim and dyed garments finishing, they are typically used to obtain special effects.
Based on the specific types, Garmon’s synthetic polymers offer:
- improvement of denim garment scrapeability and enhancement of the contrast on scraped areas
- realization of 3D effects with a full, swollen hand-feel
- curing at low temperatures
- resistance to repeated home washing
- retention of elastic properties on stretch denim and non-denim fabrics
Among the synthetic polymers offered by Garmon there are sustainable, certified solutions developed without hazardous substances for human health and included in the ZDHC Gateway.

legafinish mar
Acrylic polymer with a solid touch and a medium plasticity for various kind of application (spray, in bath, etc.). Self-crosslinking; when used together with glyoxalic resins allows 3D effects on jeans and denim garments. Applied by spray, legafinish mar improves the washing fastness of dyed garments.
legafinish mir
Resin for self-crosslinking finishes with dry, stiff and shiny touch to denim and non-denim garments. Easy scrapeability.
