Why High-End Garments Prefer Imported Fabrics?

China's clothing import fabrics are mainly Chemical fiber products It accounts for 60%-70% of the total number of imported fabrics. According to the statistics of the use of fabrics in 14 typical garment enterprises, 70%-85%, made of cotton, wool, silk and its blended fabric, is made of domestic fabrics, and 98% of hemp and hemp blended fabrics are made of domestic fabrics. In recent years, with the development of China's chemical fiber technology, the import of chemical fiber fabrics has been decreasing year by year, but some high-end brands still prefer imported fabrics.

　　 Clothing enterprise The main reason for the selection of imported fabrics is that the quality of appearance, handle performance, defect, drapability (formability) and color of foreign chemical fiber fabrics is superior to those of the five areas. Investigation and analysis shows that the main body of imported high grade chemical fiber fabrics is polyester differential filament fabric, and a few are other new chemical fiber fabrics and their blended fabrics, mainly from Korea, Taiwan, Hongkong, Japan and other countries or regions. It can be seen that the quality of domestic chemical fiber fabrics is still far from the international advanced level. Today we will analyze the gap between domestic fabrics and imported fabrics.

The difference between varieties is far away.

In developed countries and regions, such as Japan, Korea and Taiwan, the latest fabric has developed to 2-4 kinds, and more than 5-6 kinds of fibers have been blended. It has become a trend of development to achieve simulation and hyper real effect through the change of fiber structure and fabric structure. At present, the performance of the new type of chemical fiber is not stable in our country, and the application is not widespread. The average amount of fiber used in the blended fabric is 1.3.

Domestic functional fiber is too coarse. Itself is comfortable fiber, but the handle and style do not meet the requirements of summer wear.

There is a gap in aesthetics.

The simulation and reality of chemical fiber printing in China are mainly through " Alkali decrement "Achieve. The "alkali decrement" method has less style change, serious environmental pollution and large energy consumption. It is a technology that needs to be gradually replaced.

As a result, the softness of fabric is increased and the surface aurora is improved. However, the drawback is that the style is single, the formability of the fabric is reduced when clothing is made, the fabric's rich fluffy, the surface is slippery or waxy or not smooth.

The impression made of domestic polyester fabric is softer than before, but the uniform fabric made of it is hard enough, its fullness is poor, its surface is slippery and waxy or its smoothness is not enough. Most of the drape fabrics are made of low density weaving, but the fabric is soft but the yarn is hard. The fabric can not be naturally smooth and droop. The fabric has poor chromogenic appearance, uniform appearance and no natural appearance of natural fibers. As a result, polyester fabrics from Korea and Taiwan poured into the mainland market.

Chromatic light

The color of the domestic fabrics is not bright enough, the purity is not high enough, and the ash is gray, so that the fabric looks chaotic and has a feeling of not being clean. The printing of domestic printing products is characterized by insufficient whiteness, fine continuity, poor continuity and lack of vividness. The accuracy of printing is also different from that of the original products. The brightness, luster and color reproduction accuracy of the fabrics produced by imported grey cloth, imported equipment and imported dyes and dyes are still not as good as those of foreign products.

Hand feel

The top grade fabrics produced by foreign fabric manufacturers are mostly fabrics containing many new fiber components. Because of the advantages of many fibers, its drapability, softness and glossiness often exceed natural fiber fabrics. The new synthetic fabric, YISHION polyester filament or polyester filament, is novel and elegant, soft and fluffy and elegant in appearance.

Some domestic products, though small in appearance, are thin, draping, elastic and other indicators if they are foreign products. The handle is not as soft and full as the sample.

Performance after ready-made garments

The appearance of fabrics similar to imported products is different after wearing the same tailoring, sewing and ironing. In the process of tailoring, lining and steam ironing, the difference of fabric expansion and shrinkage between domestic fabrics and imported fabrics is an important reason. After the finished products, the size of the fabrics has already had a big gap with the original size, which affects the adhesion and appearance quality of fabrics and interlinings, resulting in high turnover rate in garment processing. Qualified fabrics can not meet certain requirements of clothing, resulting in economic losses and waste of resources.

Although the fabric products of our country are qualified, there is a certain gap between the appearance and the internal quality compared with foreign fabrics. Therefore, many brands of clothing still choose imported fabrics for clothing production, which is why the same fabric, high-end clothing is an important reason for expensive.
