Custom Popular Fabrics For Clothing

After the production of popular fabrics, what finishing processes are performed to improve the texture, softness and durability of the fabrics?

In our company's knitting factory, after the production of popular fabrics is completed, it will go through a series of carefully designed finishing processes, aiming to significantly improve the texture, softness and durability of the fabrics, ensuring that the final product not only conforms to market trends, but also is of high quality. Exceed customer expectations. This series of finishing processes, relying on the company's advanced equipment and technical team, achieves full coverage from basic processing to high-end customization, fully demonstrating the company's profound heritage and technical advantages in the field of knitted fabric production.
Basic finishing process
1. Pre-shrinking
First, all fabrics need to be preshrunk. This step uses mechanical or chemical methods to simulate the shrinkage behavior of fabrics during wearing and washing, effectively reducing dimensional changes in finished clothing during use and improving wearing comfort and stability. We use advanced pre-shrinking equipment to ensure that the fabric achieves ideal dimensional stability while maintaining its original style.
2. Stenter finalization
Subsequently, the fabric enters the tentering and shaping process. This process uses high temperature and tension to adjust the width and fix the shape of the fabric to ensure that the fabric is accurate in size, smooth and wrinkle-free. Our stenter setting machine is equipped with a precise temperature and humidity control system, which can set the most suitable setting conditions according to different fabric characteristics, thereby optimizing the feel and drape of the fabric.
Softness and texture enhancement technology
1. Biological enzyme treatment
In order to improve the softness and skin-friendliness of the fabric, we use biological enzyme treatment technology. By selecting specific enzyme preparations, the fabric fibers are gently treated to remove surface hairiness without damaging the internal structure of the fibers, making the fabric more delicate and soft. This process is green and environmentally friendly and meets the sustainable development requirements of the modern textile industry.
2. Softener finishing
On the basis of biological enzyme treatment, a high-efficiency softener is further applied. These softeners can penetrate into the fibers and reduce friction between fibers through chemical bonding or physical adsorption, giving the fabric a lasting soft touch. We select environmentally friendly softeners to ensure that the fabric is softer without affecting its breathability and moisture absorption.
3. Sanding and raising
For fabrics that require a special touch, such as velvet, fleece, etc., we use sanding or raising processes. Through mechanical friction or brushing, a fine fluff layer is formed on the surface of the fabric, which not only enhances the warmth and softness of the fabric, but also gives it a unique visual effect and feel. Our sanding and raising equipment is equipped with a sophisticated control system that can precisely control the length and density of pile to meet diverse design needs.
Durability-enhancing technology
1. Resin finishing
In order to improve the wrinkle resistance and wear resistance of the fabric, we use resin finishing technology. By evenly coating a specific resin solution on the surface of the fabric and curing it at high temperature, the resin molecules and fiber molecules undergo a cross-linking reaction to form a stable network structure. This process significantly enhances the elastic recovery and tear strength of the fabric, extending the service life of the garment.
2. Waterproof, oil-proof and anti-fouling treatment
For outdoor or functional fabrics, we provide professional three-proof (waterproof, oil-proof, anti-fouling) treatment. Using advanced nanotechnology, functional additives are evenly dispersed on the surface of the fabric to form an ultra-thin protective layer. This protective layer can not only effectively block the penetration of moisture, oil and stains, but also maintain good breathability and feel, allowing the fabric to maintain excellent performance in harsh environments.
3. UV protection finishing
Additionally, we offer UV protective finishing services. By adding specific UV absorbers or reflectors to the fabric, it can effectively block UV damage to the skin, especially suitable for summer clothing and outdoor sports equipment. Our UV protective finishing technology is rigorously tested to ensure compliance with international safety standards.
After each process, we have strict inspection links to ensure that each step of processing meets the predetermined standards. For the final products, we conduct comprehensive quality inspections based on customer requirements and international (U.S.) standards, including but not limited to dimensional stability, color fastness, abrasion resistance, softness, breathability and other indicators. Our inspection team is equipped with advanced testing equipment and professional technical personnel to ensure that every product can be delivered to customers in the best condition.
Through a series of scientific and sophisticated finishing processes, our company's knitting factory not only improves the texture, softness and durability of the fabrics, but also ensures the environmental protection and functionality of the products, meeting the needs of different markets and customers. Behind these processes is the company's unremitting pursuit of technological innovation and strict control of quality control, which is also the key to our ability to stand out in the fierce market competition.
