Textile testing instrument technology upgrade and closure, domestic technical strength improvement

China is a big country in the textile industry, but the textile testing instrument industry that provides certification for textile safety still relies on foreign countries in terms of technology, which has led to the current domestic textile testing instruments. A domestic textile testing instrument manufacturer can compete with foreign technology. As a result, my country's textile testing instrument technology has been subject to foreign companies for a long time, and every foreign technology update and upgrade will lead to a large number of textile testing instrument companies being affected. In 2014, the ratio of national export enterprises affected by foreign technical trade measures was 36.1%. The results of Ningbo's 8th survey on the impact of foreign technical trade measures also showed that in 2014, foreign technical trade measures centered on technical regulations, standards and conformity assessment procedures caused a direct loss of US$1.662 billion to Ningbo's exports and an additional cost of US$918 million. . Trade barriers become Ningbo's largest export“stumbling block”, including electromechanical instruments, textile and clothing, chemical minerals and metals, light industrial toys, rubber and plastics, paper and wood non-metals, food and agricultural products and other advantageous industries. From the perspective of the specific categories of technical trade measures that have an impact, all industries are roughly similar. Among them, the most frequently affected technical trade measures come from“Certification Program Requirements”,Followed by“Restriction of Toxic and Hazardous Substances”,“General technical standards”and“Environmental protection and energy saving requirements”. There is no doubt that the upgrade of foreign technical barriers to trade has brought direct economic losses to the export of some enterprises, but (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. believes that the upgrade of such technical barriers to trade will increase the domestic and foreign markets of industrial testing instruments such as textile testing instruments. ? On the one hand, foreign technical barriers to trade have been upgraded, and enterprises in the industry need to actively strengthen quality control and testing in response to such upgrades if they want to develop. Although the current rising cost of raw materials and labor will squeeze a certain profit margin of the company, it will bring difficulties to the normal production of the company. However, as long as the enterprise strengthens product research and development and continuously launches test equipment products that meet the market demand, the enterprise will definitely be able to win in the industry reshuffle. This is an opportunity for the testing instrument industry. On the other hand, the escalation of foreign technical barriers to trade lies in the fact that emerging markets closely follow developed countries and attach importance to standards and certification. Such a situation of coming from behind, and even continuous fermentation, will create a huge market for textile testing instruments. Can it directly drive the transfer of textile testing instruments overseas and become another opportunity? Under the circumstance that foreign textile testing equipment technology is forced, domestic textile testing equipment enterprises must speed up technical research, overcome long-term dependence on foreign technology, and develop textile testing equipment and related technologies with independent intellectual property rights on their own.

How to Test Firefighter Turnout Gear Thermal Protection?
Firefighter turnout gear plays a critical role in protecting firefighters operating in extreme environments involving high temperatures, flames, radiant heat, and convective heat. Its thermal protective performance directly affects firefighter safety and survival during fireground operations. This article explains how to test firefighter turnout gear thermal protection through Thermal Protective Performance (TPP) testing. It introduces the scientific principle based on the Stoll curve, outlines key influencing factors such as heat flux intensity and exposure time, and reviews internationally recognized standards including NFPA 1971 and ISO 17492. The article also highlights the testing advantages of the GT-RC02 TPP Thermal Protection Tester, which provides accurate, stable, and standards-compliant evaluation of flame-retardant protective clothing materials under combined radiant and convective heat exposure.
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
