Tight And Soft Fabric Materials And Clothing Are On The Market.

Tight and soft fabric material, clothing began to become popular.

In fact, bamboo fiber has become the most successful example of "eco fabric", such as soybeans, corn, milk, kelp and recycled plastic materials.

Bamboo fiber products have related products in Nordstrom, SaksFifthAvenue and Target shops, as well as ErmenegildoZegna, RagBone and RalphLauren brands.

Some prominent brands that focus on environmental protection use bamboo fiber more.

Because bamboo fibers are very soft, they are often used with luxurious silk and cashmere.

The discovery and application of bamboo fiber is very logical: similar to natural hemp fibers, crops grow very fast without using large area irrigation, spraying pesticides and cotton crops and requiring fertilizers.

It is widely used as a "biodegradable" and plant antibacterial property in the development of sportswear.

"Compared to cotton fiber, people now prefer bamboo fiber," said AartiDoshi, manager of DoshiGroup, a bamboo fiber fabric distribution company based in Mumbai, India.

But seeing the essence through the phenomenon, I find that

In August, the Federal Trade Commission prosecuted four small bamboo fiber clothing manufacturers, saying they were cheating on trademarks and other issues.

According to the 1958 textile fiber product identification method, these companies used slogans such as "natural", "degradable" and "antibacterial".

But the Federal Trade Commission thinks that because the development of bamboo fibers has undergone chemical processes, it is not natural.

The plant also said that the production process of plant fibers could not retain its biodegradability and antibacterial properties.

In a notice entitled "whether you have been confused by bamboo fibers", the Federal Trade Commission said that the production of bamboo fibers "uses toxic chemicals to release pollutants into the air."

The 4 cases of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) have been solved and no penalty has been imposed, but the fabric is labeled with viscose rayon and can not be labeled with biodegradability and antibacterial properties.

Of course, bamboo fiber is more natural than pure rayon.

But SalvatoreGiardina, an associate professor of textile development and marketing at the Institute of fashion design and fashion technology, said he now uses linen and linen fabrics.

When a manufacturer told him a few years ago that bamboo fibers were viscose fibers, he no longer used bamboo fibers.

He said: "the products I designed are all high-end products, and I can't label them as 100% viscose."

Jon and no, the designer and founder of BonnieSiefers, are one of the clothing manufacturers prosecuted by the Federal Trade Commission.

She said she had stopped selling bamboo fibers with biodegradable and antibacterial properties.

She is still studying the use of corn sugar instead of petroleum extracts to make polyester fabrics technically.

But on the Internet, we can quickly find that many clothing manufacturers still sell bamboo fiber in the name of eco friendly in the market.

Ms. Ewing pointed out that these may not be malicious.

Most of the bamboo is grown in China, and American designers are unable to monitor China's suppliers.

Of course, bamboo fibers can still be used as industrial and home textiles such as furniture and flooring.

There are other arguments about bamboo fiber.

Giardina, Professor of FIT, said he found bamboo fibers unstable and extensional in humid environments.

According to a spokesman for UniformKnittersLtd., a clothing manufacturer in Hongkong, they did not use bamboo fibers for reasons of chromatic aberration and shrinkage.

HalaBahmet, the designer of ViridisLuxe, said bamboo fibers were not very durable, and there would be some holes after several cleaning.

These small holes are caused by broken fibers.

She also said that the brand's clothing is beautiful, light and smooth, but the durability is not good.

But now organic cotton is added to improve durability. They label "bamboo viscose fiber" on labels.

She has successfully blended bamboo fiber with hemp and cashmere, weaving the best fabric.

Ms. Bahmet said she hoped that the Federal Trade Commission would pay more attention to bamboo fiber research because it did not involve the application of important food sources such as corn to fabric production.

She is optimistic that the action of the Federal Trade Commission will encourage scientists to study the production methods of real ecological bamboo fibers.

She said: "bamboo is still in its infancy only 10 years, and the road ahead is still long."
