Fabric innovation is the key factor to sustain rather than replication

Now a day’s fabric is the most versatile and technical part of garments. Engineers can establish their own creativity by research and development to innovate different seasonal trend to raise buyer glamour by innovative fabric structure and design. In the present competitive business, we must come out from the traditional replication of buyer swatch because of less FOB value of RMG.

We must have to focus on our idea innovation to save the Bangladesh textile industry as well as our economy. A buyer always focuses on fabric characteristics, so the quality of the fabric is the main concern.

To maintain the fabric quality we require modern textile machinery, efficient and skilled manpower, and quality management system. Selection of machines is very important and it depends on the technical skill of engineers, also need to research on modern machinery. At the same time, training is must enlarge the technical knowledge.

At present, engineers face challenges of few fabric qualities such as pilling of blend fabric, spirality of low gsm, stripe and heather fabric, the dimensional stability of sweater look loose constructed designed fabric, fiber migration for brushback fleece fabric. To meet the pilling raw material quality is prior than the process, blend yarn should be vortex spinning, or if it is ring spun cotton- should be combed quality and must add singing, anti-pilling treatment is a must.

Spirality of fabric depends on yarn twist, knitting machine rotation, a number of the feeder of machines, knitting machine gauge, stitch length of fabric, the smaller diameter of the machine as well as knitting, slitting and finishing process. Ensuring dimensional stability of the loose knitted fabric, need to use polyester blended yarn, also need to use special chemical finish.

Keep the fiber migration as standard level need to select right quality, blended yarn in loop, loop knitting structure and stitch length of the loop, proper slitting process, brushing quality, if it needs sharing also. If one needs to control 100% fiber migration fabric, it should be brushed at the grey stage and dye in a continuous knit dyeing machine.

To maintain maximum efficiency with quality, selection and source of raw material, machine selection, and proper process route development is must, that’s why Research & Development (R&D) department needs to be rich to compete world RMG business.

We have enough local textile engineers those are highly technical sound, enough efficiency to meet the versatile fabric production with maximum profitability.

Engineers can reveal their career to both factory and liaison office to take out potential consciousness of fabric. Fabric is the nucleus of garments, the maximum profitability of RMG comes from the fabric. As we have sufficient skilled engineers to meet the buyer standard and to produce the extraordinary fabric that is why Bangladeshi big textile groups are increasing their internal fabric process unit rather than importing fabric from outside.
