|
Delicate garments which require the abraded, stonewashed look are washed with Perlite Powder in conjunction with Enzymes as, if Pumice stones are used in these Garments the percentage of damage will be high.
Perlite has been found to perform many of the same properties as Stones, it produces a much softer, pliable finish.Perlite also gives a worn, finished look through out the fabric and not just on the upper surface |

|
|
| Functional Finishes |
Garment manufacturers are challenged to find innovations and to seek new materials that provide tangible benefits.
Properties such as Easy care, antimicrobial, Antistatic, Stain resistant, water and oil repellency ,flame retardant, UV protection, thermal and moisture control can be incorporated into the garment to make them functional.

| Antimicrobial |
|
Anti-microbial finish causes a fabric to inhibit the growth of Microbes. The humid and warm environment found in textile fibers encourages the growth of the microbes. In the present day world most of us are very conscious about our hygiene and cleanliness. Clothing and textile materials are not only the carriers of microorganisms such as pathogenic bacteria, odour generating bacteria and mould fungi, but also good media for the growth of the microorganisms.
Anti Microbial finished Garments remain pure, clean and fresh as the finish combats the growth of the odor causing Bacteria. Microbial infestation poses danger to both living and non-living matters. Obvious smell from the inner garments such as socks, spread of diseases, staining and degradation of textiles are some of the detrimental effects of bad microbes. Though the use of antimicrobials have been known for the decades, it is only in the recent couple of years several attempts have been made on finishing textiles with antimicrobial compounds. The consumers are now increasingly aware of the hygienic life style and there is a necessity and expectation for a wide range of textile products finished with antimicrobial properties. |

|
| Ultra Violet Protection |
Sunlight includes rays of invisible UV radiation and over exposure to UV radiation can lead to Sunburn,accelerated skin ageing, Skin cancer.
Garments treated with this finish protects us from the harmful radiations.
UV protection is especially required for fair skinned sun sensitive people, Children, People who spend more time in the sun. |
|
|
| Soil Release |
|
Stain release agents give the fabric a property by which stains can be easily washed out during laundering. This is achieved by a combination of Fluorine and Hydrophilic groups in the Soil release Agent.The fluorine group repels oil while the Hydrophilic group facilitaes stain removal in the washing. |
|
|
| Water & Oil Repellency |
Water and Oil repellency happens when the surface tension of the solid surface is lower than that of oil & water. As such water and oil will enter the fabric surface as surface tension of cotton is higher than that of Oil & water.
When the fabric is treated with this finish the surface tension is lowered than that of the Liquids. Hence your garment becomes Water and Oil Repellent. |
|
|
| Flame Retardancy |
Flame retardants improve the resistance to ignition of the Substrate thereby reducing the chance of starting a fire. In case of a fire they reduce the flame spread and rate of fire development, thus providing extra time to extinguish the fire or make an escape.
Flame retardants act physically as well as chemically in combating the fire by cooling the substrate,forming a protective layer over it,diluting the combustible material and also by chemical reactions. |
|
|
| Moisture Management |
|
By this finish the Garments especially that are worn next to the skin, transport the sweat from the body and evaporate it to the atmosphere in double quick time. So you feel the garments more dry ,they don’t cling on to your body. Also you feel lot more cool. This finish makes the fabric more breathable. |
