HOW SI-RO-SET WORKS
, 'Hie Si-Ro-Set crease is produced by changing the molecular structure of the wool. If analysed. it would be found that wool fibre consists of approximately 40,000 molecular fibres, each in a magnetic field of its own.
When a crease is made in a piece of material, the fibres are re-arranged and one of several bonds is made in the molecular structure of the fibres. The permanence of the bond is maintained by the manner in which it is created.
The Si-Ro-Set bond can only be reversed by the application of the solution used in the first instance plus identical heat t eattnent.
