ISO Released Several Textile Testing Standards

As people

In recent years, the export of functional textiles, such as antibacterial, mites, mildew proof, mosquito repellent, flame retardant, wrinkle free and ironing, has increased rapidly.

Recently, the international organization for Standardization (ISO) has continuously issued the two functional textile testing standards of the second parts of the textile antifungal performance test standard and the textile fabric antistatic performance test standard.

This series of standards is used to determine the antifungal and antistatic properties of specific functional textiles, including woven and knitted fabrics, fibers, yarns and finished products.

Since the launch of the antiviral textile testing standard in August this year, the organization has issued three functional textile testing standards continuously.

With the continuous warming of exports and the corresponding testing standard system, ISO has developed a series of functional evaluation methods, including flame retardance, UV resistance, radiation protection, physiological comfort, oil repellency, water absorption and water repellency.

The publication of the three test standards of antibacterial, antistatic and antiviral marks the further improvement of the international evaluation system of functional textiles.

China is a big exporter of textiles. In the first three quarters of this year, China's textile and apparel exports totaled US $221 billion 935 million, an increase of 5.92% over the same period last year.

In the first three quarters of the Ningbo port, the export of textile yarn, fabrics and products exceeded US $13 billion 879 million, an increase of 6.77% over the same period last year.

Inspection and quarantine experts pointed out that for private small and medium enterprises (SMEs) whose main mode of operation is the processing of the raw materials and the incoming orders, the export textile products are often difficult to obtain substantial export profits due to the low added value, enhance the proportion of functional products, and enhance independent research and development, which is of great benefit to break through the export bottleneck and expand the export market.

To remind the relevant enterprises, we should further study the development trend of the international textile industry and explore its functions.

In the future, we should conscientiously learn the relevant evaluation standards of functional textiles, and grasp the right direction for the development of enterprises. On the other hand, we should increase R & D investment, devote great efforts to research and develop high value-added products, and strive to enter the international high-end product market.
