Fastness

These classifications are very complicated, one of them is thread color fastness, such as soaping fastness, rubbing fastness, light fastness, perspiration fastness, water fastness, chlorine bleaching fastness, etc.


Price Error

(1)When purchasing fabrics or yarn or thread, there will be short code and gap. Generally, when buying woven fabrics, there will be short code, and when purchasing knitted fabrics, there will be gap and paper tube

(2) Short yard is less than the number of meters to collect enough money. Fabric short code calculation standard: according to the standard is shuttle fabric +/-2%, knitting +/3%.

(3) Air gap and carton are only for the yarn/thread purchased by kilograms, and it is the kind of winding. As the name implies, a carton is in the center of a roll of yarn, and the gap is that there is no carton in the center. Fabrics with cartons are basically weighed off when weighing, but it does not matter whether there is cartons or not in terms of metres.

(4) For the same kind of cloth, the unit price of net cloth is different from that of carton. For example, net cloth costs 30 yuan per kilogram; for carton, the gap is 2 kilograms, and the unit price is 27.
