Where is the main performance of the textile industry's competitiveness?

my country has good textile machinery and textile raw materials. my country is a big textile country. The existing fabrics can definitely be found in China. However, many international brands say that my country’s copying power is far greater than creativity, and innovative fabrics are hard to find in China. Even if there are, it is difficult to quickly know which domestic supplier is producing.   International clothing brands attach great importance to the pre-development of fabrics, and provide various styles of fabrics for brand designers to choose from. If a zagna garment is to be sampled, there are hundreds of new fabrics to choose from, giving the designer endless imagination and room for development. Whether it is a fabric factory or a fabric middleman, the accuracy of fabrics provided is the key to obtaining orders. Because every brand designer attaches great importance to fabric feel and color matching. Generally speaking, many domestic fabric manufacturers pay attention or lack patience. Compared with the fabric technology and style that are constantly renovated according to brand requirements, many fabric factories attach importance to the repeatability of fabric production technology, while the creative strength is marginal. In the eyes of many domestic managers of small and medium-sized enterprises, the cost of developing new products is too high. You have to see the actual order to operate, and you have to reach the minimum quantity. Most of the time, this minimum quantity requirement is the first time the brand company prepares the order meeting. Hard to reach. If the huge textile production capacity and fabric supply speed are used as a measure of the core competitiveness of an enterprise, their argument is not unreasonable. Each enterprise's financial status, machinery and equipment, and management style determine their market positioning and target customers' choice.   If there is no way of innovation of their own at all, their development path may become narrower and narrower.

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.

What are The Flame Retardant Test Methods ?
Flame retardant testing evaluates materials' ability to resist ignition and slow fire spread. This guide covers key textile test methods (45°, horizontal, vertical), standards (ASTM, ISO, BS), and equipment like flammability testers for upholstery, carpets, and fabrics.
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
