In 1954, Bayer AG launched a new fiber made of polyacrylic on the market and called it “dralon®”. This high-tech material was soon to become a bestseller and has now been holding its own on the world market for more than half a century.
On the animated time line, you can witness several highlights of the dralon® history - for example, a film about the fashion competition “The Golden Bayer Scissors”, which was awarded in the 50’s and made dralon® popular at home and abroad. Adverts from past to present further illustrate the career of the individual applications of dralon® fiber.
