From calendering to sanforizing – high-quality properties for your textiles

AG_Cilander_Sanforisieren

Our range of surface treatment services of textiles includes, to name but a few processes, calendering, brushing, roughening and shrinking. We also maintain long-standing partnerships to ensure we have reliable, individual access to a comprehensive array of brushing, emerizing and roughening machinery.

Brushing

By brushing or emerizing fabrics, we can achieve a range of results on textile surfaces, such as the popular "peach skin effect" or a carbon finish. Using special carbon brushes, we create a finer, shorter, denser fluffy effect on the fabric. The density and fineness is highly dependent on the quality of the yarn and the structure of the fabric, and is also key to how the fabric feels.

Shrinking

Shrinking or sanforizing is an important finishing process – after all, the last thing we want is for the textile goods, which have continuously been tensioned during the production process, to shrink because of water or heat once the end customer has them. This possibility is intentionally prevented using our Montex sanforization system without the use of any chemicals. Our sanforization system enables us to achieve extremely high dimensional stability in the warp direction – generally between -1% and -1.5%.
