HYDRAFAB - Durable Water Repellent Finish

HydraFab is a water-based durable water repellent (DWR) finish for textiles and upholstery, supplied for professional treatment and mill lines. The chemistry bonds to fiber surfaces so soils release more readily than on untreated goods; air-cure and heat-cure grades differ in documented wash durability—request the technical sheet that matches your process (Type 1 air cure versus Type 2 heat cure).

Run a controlled trial on production fabric and confirm hand feel before bulk runs; C6 finishing options are documented where padding mangle or exhaust curing applies.

HYDRAFAB is a Water Repellent Nano Coating for textile

HYDRAFAB suits wool, silk, synthetics, and cotton apparel where breathability and hand feel must stay unchanged across garments from formal wear to performance wear.

In practice: Deployed by professional upholstery protection services in hospitality and residential projects across India; supplied to textile mills for mill-applied DWR finishing on production yardage. For volume supply or mill-line technical consultation, contact the ANT LAB team.

WHY HYDRAFAB WATER REPELLENT ?

• Let's face it, whether it's in hotels, hospitals, or homes, there's always a risk of unintentional spillage of tea, coffee or other beverages, which not only makes our costly textiles/dresses look dirty but also damages our image, which also spoils our mood.

• During the production of Jewelry Ornaments, when cutting precious stones such as Diamond, Gold, and others, their tiny fragments cling to the operator's fabric, design uniform due to the sticky nature of our Garments. We need to wash these clothes every time to recover the fine gold, the diamond particles. But more than 35% of these large particles could not be retrieved when washing them.

Frequently asked questions

HydraFab is a preventive coating applied to fabric, not a retail stain remover. It helps protect fibers and supports easier cleaning with water when the fabric is contaminated, per technical documentation. Set in stains may still need appropriate cleaning methods.

The product is documented to protect fabrics from liquids and stains and to address behaviors such as wine spills and coffee stains. Juice behaves as a liquid spill. Hydrophobic behavior helps liquids bead for blotting. Results depend on fabric, application, and how quickly the spill is addressed.

Air cure (Type 1) is applied by professional spray or dip with room temperature cure (about 24 hours before normal use for the V1 Air Cure line, per TDS). It fits fixed upholstery, curtains, and applications where the priority is not maximum repeated home laundering performance. Heat cure (Type 2) is applied in textile mill or manufacturing processes with heat curing (for example padding mangle or exhaust per TDS). It is specified where higher wash-cycle durability is required as shown on the product characteristics table—not sold as a consumer retail spray. Request the correct technical sheet for the line you need.

For Air cure (Type 1) on typical upholstered pieces, allow about 24 hours of room temperature cure after professional application, as stated in the HydraFab V1 Air Cure technical data. Heat-cure fabrics follow mill cure schedules in the heat-cure TDS.

The datasheet states no change to colour and maintained breathability when the product is applied as specified.

Air cure (Type 1): The published characteristics table lists wash performance up to 5 cycles under the stated test conditions. This line is not positioned as the high-laundry-endurance option for apparel that will see many machine washes—use heat cure (Type 2) from the mill for that requirement, subject to TDS. For non-wearables such as fixed upholstery, the datasheet cites typical duration ranges that are fabric and use dependent.

Heat cure (Type 2): Applied during manufacturing; the same characteristics table documents Type 2 wash testing at 20 and 40 HL cycles. Channel is mill and manufacturing supply—not B2C retail packaging.

No. Stain removers sold for consumers are typically cleaning chemistry for removal. HydraFab is a professional nano finish applied to the textile, not a bottle meant to dissolve marks after the fact.

Air cure (Type 1) application is by professional spray or dip for finish quality; the datasheet recommends spray for optimum results on suitable pieces. ANTLAB in India offers trained application for furniture. Heat cure (Type 2) is for mills and manufacturing lines with the right equipment—not a home DIY product. Export buyers work with authorized partners.

Yes. HydraFab reduces severity and frequency of many incidents but does not eliminate all maintenance or deep cleaning needs for every household.
