Every verified application is documented based on actual fabric production volumes, supported by mill records and licensing data. In addition, independent performance testing ensures that the finished textile meets the required standards. This gives brands confidence, transparency, and credible proof of performance from production to retail.

Learn moreWhat are the differences in requirements between Finishing of Apparel and Home Textiles?
Often Home Textiles can´t be washed at all like couches or beds or are only washed very rare. Therefore, they need to be treated with high performance products, that keep the performance level high even after a long time.
They also must perform under extreme conditions, like heat in the summer, cold in the winter, UV-light the whole day etc. Therefore, we can identify also different focus technologies compared to apparel.
Very important finishes for Home Textiles are for example:
- UV-Protection
- Antistatic
- Flame retardants
- Stain release products
