Test and rating method of color fastness to washing machine 1

The technical engineer said that the color change assessment and the staining assessment are usually carried out by using the discoloration gray card and the stained gray card. 


Color change evaluation: The color change of the sample can be directly evaluated by using the discoloration gray card with reference to the rating procedure 


1. In order to increase the accuracy of the rating, several people can jointly evaluate. 

Level 5.0: Can be ignored or not stained. 

Level 4.5: The color change is equivalent to Level 4-5 of the color-changing gray card. 

Level 4.0: The color change is equivalent to Level 4 of the color-changing gray card. 

Level 3.5: The color change is equivalent to Level 3-4 of the color-changing gray card. 

Level 3.0: The color change is equivalent to Level 3 of the color-changing gray card. 

Level 2.5: The color change is equivalent to Level 2-3 of the color-changing gray card. 

Level 2.0: The color change is equivalent to Level 2 of the color-changing gray card. 

Level 1.5: The color change is equivalent to Level 1-2 of the color-changing gray card. 

Level 1.0: The color change is equivalent to Level 1 of the color-changing gray card. 

In addition, the color change can also be measured using a colorimeter. 


Staining assessment: The staining of the multi-fiber cloth can be assessed by using the stained gray card and the stained color card. The report should indicate whether the stained gray card or the stained color card is used. 

Level 5.0: Can be ignored or not stained. 

Level 4.5: The color staining is equivalent to level 4-5 of the stained gray card or level 4.5 of the 9-level AATCC stained color card. 

Level 4.0: The color staining is equivalent to level 4-5 of the stained gray card or level 4.0 of the 9-level AATCC stained color card. 

Level 3.5: The color staining is equivalent to level 3-4 of the stained gray card or level 3.5 of the 9-level AATCC stained color card. 

Level 3.0: The color staining is equivalent to level 3 of the stained gray card or level 3.0 of the 9-level AATCC stained color card. 

Level 2.5: The color staining is equivalent to level 2-3 of the stained gray card or level 2.5 of the 9-level AATCC stained color card. 

Level 2.0: The color staining is equivalent to level 2 of the stained gray card or level 2.0 of the 9-level AATCC stained color card. 

Level 1.5: The color staining is equivalent to level 1-2 of the stained gray card or level 1.5 of the 9-level AATCC stained color card. 


The procedure of color transfer from the sample to multifiber cloth or bleached cotton cloth can be determined by comparison with unwashed multifiber cloth or bleached cloth. If multifiber cloth NO.10A or FAA is used, the width of the multifiber strip The aperture is wider than that of the colorimeter, so the staining of this multi-fiber cloth can be measured by the tester.

Additionally, GESTER INTERNATIONALCO.,LTD has a few new features planned to roll out in the app to provide more convenience, comfort and options to our clients.

Color Fastness to Washing Testing Machine: Ensuring High-Quality Production
One crucial aspect of textile production is color fastness, which determines how well a fabric retains its color after exposure to washing or other forms of exposure. To ensure high-quality fabrics, manufacturers use color fastness to washing testing machines.
What we need to know about color fastness
Color fastness to washing is one of the common test items for textile dyeing fastness, which is mainly used to test the fastness of fabric clothing and home textile products after one or more times to simulate the dyeing after household washing and commercial washing.
Dry and Wet Rubbing Color Fastness Test Method
The wet and dry rubbing color fastness test is mainly used to test the color fastness of textiles. It is widely used in the textile industry. At present, the textile instrument industry has different types of wet and dry rubbing color fastness test instruments, and the common ones are electric dry and wet rubbing colors. Fastness tester and manual dry and wet rubbing color fastness tester, this paper mainly introduces the Electronic Crockmeter as an example.
Bally Leather Flexing Tester GT-KC10A Assembly Guide
This comprehensive guide provides detailed instructions for the proper assembly, calibration, and operation of the Bally Leather Flexing Tester GT-KC10A. Essential for quality control labs, it ensures accurate testing of flex resistance in leather, coated fabrics, and textiles used in footwear uppers, helping to prevent material failure.
Why is a Computerized Universal Testing Machine Important?
A computerized universal testing machine (UTM) is essential for evaluating material properties like tensile strength, compression, and bending. Widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and footwear, UTMs ensure compliance with ISO, ASTM, and DIN standards while improving accuracy and efficiency in quality control.
ISO 17694 / ISO 5402-1: Footwear Flexing Resistance Test Methods
Footwear soles and uppers endure thousands of flex cycles during use, risking premature cracking, delamination, or chipping if material resistance is inadequate. This technical analysis details two critical international standards:

1. ISO 5402-1: Specifies the flexometer method for testing leather flex resistance under repeated bending.

2. ISO 17694: Defines test methods for footwear upper and lining flex resistance, simulating real-world bending stress to assess long-term durability.

Analysis of Pilling Influencing Factors and Testing Methods
Pilling testing plays a vital role in textile quality control, helping manufacturers evaluate and improve the wear performance of fabrics. Through the use of advanced instruments like ICI Pilling Box Test Method (GT-C18) , Martindale Abrasion Test Method (GT-C13B) , and Random Tumble Pilling Test Method (GT-C19A) , laboratories can conduct precise and standardized assessments, ensuring that final textile products deliver superior appearance, comfort, and longevity.
Water Resistance Testing Standards and Methods
Textile water resistance testing evaluates fabrics through three primary methods: hydrostatic pressure (measuring water penetration resistance), spray rating (assessing surface water repellency), and water repellency tests (quantifying water absorption). Hydrostatic pressure testing is critical for high-performance applications like outdoor apparel and diving gear, while spray rating evaluates surface staining for rainwear. Water repellency tests, such as the Bundesmann method, determine overall
