The United States strengthens control of Xinjiang-related products. How much is Xinjiang's textile industry affected?

According to feedback from some textile and apparel foreign trade companies in Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places, recent U.S. buyers and retailers have requested orders not to use Xinjiang cotton (the processor needs to provide the cotton’s origin certificate). Other departments issued the 'Xinjiang Supply Chain Business Advisory Announcement,' claiming to strengthen export controls and sanctions related to Xinjiang. In addition, the U.S. government requires U.S. persons and non-U.S. persons to gradually settle transactions with entities in which the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps directly or indirectly owns 50% or more of the equity before September 30, 2020; the relevant transactions cannot be settled before September 30 For transactions, you need to seek guidance from the U.S. Treasury Department. In order to reduce troubles and avoid risks, some US customers have made clear orders to ban Xinjiang cotton. Domestic export-oriented textile and clothing enterprises and foreign trade companies in coastal areas said that because the order recovery from US buyers from June to August was much slower than Europe, the Middle East, Japan and South Korea, etc., the contracts were still 'short, flat, and fast'. It has an impact on the consumption demand of cotton in Xinjiang, but it is not prominent. The enterprises solve the problem by purchasing high-quality bonded cotton in the port and customs clearance. According to industry insiders, if the United States threatens customers in other regions to ban the use of Xinjiang cotton, it will have an adverse impact on my country's textile and apparel exports that have just improved, especially orders for high-end, high-profit products exported to Europe and the United States will have a greater impact.

Heat Contact Machine GT-C101-The Ultimate Selection Guide

The Heat Contact Machine GT-C101 is a specialized testing instrument designed for evaluating the heat resistance and thermal protective performance of gloves, protective clothing, and other heat-resistant materials used in high-temperature environments. In industries such as smelting, casting, welding, and glass manufacturing, workers are frequently exposed to intense heat, making accurate testing of contact heat resistance essential for ensuring safety and compliance.

GT-C101 simulates real working conditions by measuring heat transfer delay and thermal transmission under instant contact with high-temperature surfaces. Fully compliant with EN 407, EN 702, and ISO 12127-1 standards, this machine provides precise, repeatable data for manufacturers, laboratories, and research institutions. With high-temperature capability up to 500°C, advanced calorimetry, digital monitoring, and adjustable contact speed, the Heat Contact Machine GT-C101 is an indispensable tool for developing and certifying next-generation PPE and heat-insulation materials.
What Are the Types of Color Fastness Testing for Fabrics?
Color fastness testing evaluates how well fabrics resist fading or bleeding under conditions like washing, rubbing, light exposure, and perspiration. Key tests include rubbing fastness, washing fastness, light fastness, perspiration fastness, and sublimation fastness. These tests ensure textiles maintain color integrity, prevent health risks, and meet quality standards. Learn about different testing methods and equipment used in the textile industry.

What Are the ISTA Standard Tests and ISTA Testing Equipment?
ISTA (International Safe Transit Association) standard tests are globally recognized transportation packaging test procedures designed to evaluate the safety and reliability of products and their packaging throughout the logistics chain. By simulating real-world transportation conditions such as drops, vibration, impact, stacking, and compression, ISTA testing helps identify potential packaging weaknesses before products enter large-scale distribution. ISTA testing equipment—including drop testers, vibration testers, incline impact machines, and compression testers—plays a critical role in accurately reproducing these conditions under laboratory settings. Proper selection and use of ISTA-compliant equipment enable manufacturers to reduce transportation damage, lower return costs, enhance packaging design, and improve customer confidence in product quality and logistics safety.
