Why does the fabric need to be shrunk before composite?

Time:2022-08-16

With the continuous development of the market, people have higher and higher requirements for clothing, which is not only beautiful, but also comfortable and washable.

Some customers once asked me: the composite fabrics they made in other factories were beautiful before washing, but wrinkled after washing. They asked whether we could solve this problem?

After a detailed understanding of the customer's fabric material and shrinkage rate, it was found that it was not the composite problem, but the shrinkage rate of the fabric caused the wrinkle. As the fabric is compounded, generally two or more fabrics are compounded together, so the shrinkage rate of the two fabrics needs to be similar, with a difference of about 1%. If the difference is too large, it will appear as the previous customer feedback. It is also very beautiful when it is combined, but once it meets the water, its original shape will be revealed and it is irretrievable. Because most of the fabrics that need to be water-resistant are relatively strong in composite fastness, the probability of rework is very low once they need to be reworked.

From the above examples, we also have several points to summarize:

We need to find a professional fabric compounding enterprise to do this kind of compounding, because there are many things that can be obtained through trial and error. The professional compounding enterprise will first inform the customer of the risks and preventive measures in the early stage, so that they can deal with the raw materials and eliminate the subsequent problems;
