Recycled polyester fabric
RPET fabric is a new type of recycled environmentally friendly fabric, its full name is Recycled PET Fabric (recycled polyester fabric). Its raw material is RPET yarn made from recycled PET bottles through quality inspection, slicing, spinning, cooling and collection. Commonly known as Coke bottle environmental protection cloth. The fabric can be recycled and reused, which can save energy, oil consumption and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Each pound of recycled RPET fabric can save 61,000 BTU of energy, which is equivalent to 21 pounds of carbon dioxide. After environmentally friendly dyeing, environmentally friendly coating, and calendering, the fabric can also pass the testing of MTL, SGS, ITS and other international standards, including phthalates (6P), formaldehyde, lead (Pb), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, Nonylfen and other environmental indicators have reached the latest European environmental standards and the latest American environmental standards. Organic cotton Organic cotton is a natural and pollution-free cotton produced in agricultural production that uses organic fertilizer, biological control of pests and diseases, and natural farming management. Chemical products are not allowed. From seeds to agricultural products. And based on the "Agricultural Product Safety Quality Standards" promulgated by various countries or WTO/FAO as the measurement scale, the content of pesticides, heavy metals, nitrates, harmful organisms (including microorganisms, parasite eggs, etc.) in cotton and other toxic and harmful substances are controlled within the limit specified in the standard. Inside, and certified commodity cotton.
Colored cotton Colored cotton is a new type of cotton with natural color of cotton fiber. Natural colored cotton is a new type of textile material cultivated by modern bioengineering technology. The fiber has natural color when the cotton is spit out. Compared with ordinary cotton, it has the characteristics of soft, breathable, elastic and comfortable to wear, so it is also called A higher level of ecological cotton. Internationally, it is called Zero Pollution (Zeropollution). Since organic cotton has to maintain its pure natural characteristics during the process of planting and weaving, the existing chemical synthetic dyes cannot be dyed. Only natural plant dyes are used for natural dyeing. Naturally dyed organic cotton has more colors and can meet more needs. Experts predict that in the early 21st century, brown and green will be the popular colors of clothing. It embodies the trends of ecology, nature, leisure and fashion. In addition to brown and green, color cotton clothing is gradually developing blue, purple, gray-red, brown and other colors.
Bamboo fiber bamboo fiber yarn raw materials use bamboo as the raw material, and the staple fiber yarn produced by bamboo pulp fiber is a green product. The knitted fabrics and garments produced from cotton yarn made of this raw material are significantly different from cotton and wood-type fibers. The unique style of plain fiber: abrasion resistance, lint-free, high moisture absorption and quick drying, high air permeability, excellent drape, smooth and plump, silky soft, mildew, mothproof and antibacterial, cool and comfortable wearing, beauty and skin care The effect. It has excellent dyeing performance, bright luster, good natural antibacterial effect and environmental protection, which conforms to the trend of modern people's pursuit of health and comfort. Of course, bamboo fiber fabrics also have some shortcomings. This plant fabric is weaker than other ordinary fabrics, has a higher damage rate, and the shrinkage rate is more difficult to control. In order to overcome these shortcomings, bamboo fiber is usually blended with some ordinary fibers. The blending of bamboo fiber and other types of fibers in a specific ratio can not only reflect the performance of other fibers, but also give full play to the characteristics of bamboo fibers, bringing new characteristics to knitted fabrics.
Pure spun and blended yarns (blend with different types of fibers such as Tencel, Modal, sweat-wicking polyester, negative oxygen ion polyester, corn fiber, cotton, acrylic and other fibers in different proportions) are the preferred fabrics for knitted close-fitting textiles. In trendy fashions, bamboo fiber fabrics are more effective for spring and summer wear.
Soy fiber Soy protein fiber is a degradable regenerated plant protein fiber, which has many excellent properties of natural fiber and chemical fiber. The fabric has a cashmere-like feel, silk-like luster and breathable warmth of cotton. It is skin-friendly and comfortable. It is hailed as a "healthy and comfortable fiber in the 21st century" by domestic and foreign experts. Soy protein fiber is similar to silk, with good drape and fine surface texture. It is an ideal fabric for high-end shirts. It also contains a variety of essential amino acids, suitable for wearing. China is the world's third largest producer of organic cotton after Turkey and India, and Xinjiang is the main production center. In the process of planting organic cotton, chemical pesticides and other chemical products can not be used or only a small amount can be used. Organic fertilizers, biological control of pests and diseases, and natural farming are the main ones. From seeds to agricultural products, they must be all natural and pollution-free. Organic cotton fabrics are about 50% more expensive than traditional fabrics.
Hemp fiber Hemp fiber is a fiber obtained from various hemp plants, including bast fibers of the cortex of annual or perennial herb dicots and leaf fibers of monocots. Bast fiber crops mainly include ramie, jute, green hemp, hemp, flax, apocynum and kenaf. Among them, hemp, flax, apocynum and other cell walls are not lignified, and the fiber thickness is similar to cotton. It can be used as textile raw materials to woven into various cool linen cloths, summer cloths, and can also be blended with cotton, wool, silk or chemical fiber. The strength of hemp fiber is higher than that of cotton fiber, up to 6.5 g/denier; the elongation is small, only half of cotton fiber, about 3.5%, and it is more brittle than cotton fiber.
The surface of hemp and flax fiber is smooth, it is easier to absorb moisture, and the moisture is released into the atmosphere faster; the fiber is relatively straight and not easy to deform. Modal Modal is also a common environmentally friendly fabric. It comes from the Lanzing company in Austria and is often used in high-end underwear. Modal fiber is a Lyocell fiber made of beech wood. It is pure natural and biodegradable. It combines the gorgeous texture of natural fabrics and the practicality of synthetic fibers. It has a soft hand feeling, gloss like silk, smooth as **, moisture absorption, The air permeability is better than cotton, and at the same time it is easier to dye than bamboo fiber fabrics, and the color is still full and bright after repeated washing. According to Shaoxing Jinyu, the price of imported modal fabrics is more than US$7.04 per kilogram, while Taiwan modal fabrics only cost about US$4.23, which is nearly half the price difference. Organic wool Organic wool is produced on farms that are chemical-free and GMO-free. These flocks are freely stocked and grow completely in nature, so they have become a new topic that excites the wool industry. In recent months, the market's interest in organic wool has greatly increased.
Log Tencel is a sporty environmentally friendly fabric. Because of its special nano-thread molecular structure, it is like a pipe for air circulation on the surface of the fabric, ensuring sufficient oxygen circulation and locking moisture, so it has a fairly good humidity control effect. Some fabric experts pointed out that this kind of fabric has super antistatic properties and does not produce the feeling of being attached to the body, so it is very slippery and is especially suitable for sports wear. Its moisture content best meets the physiological requirements of human skin, has good air permeability and humidity control function, and is consistently called "breathable fabric" by domestic and foreign media. Its fabric has the advantages of soft hand feeling, smooth and cool, breathable, antistatic, and colorful dyeing.
