With the sharp fluctuations in the price of home textile raw materials, labor costs, financing costs continue to rise, and electricity costs continue to rise. Affected by various factors such as tensions, “opening up the industrial chain, jointly developing new products, and increasing product added value” has become the consensus of upstream and downstream enterprises in the textile industry chain. Among them, the advent of bamboo fiber has undoubtedly provided strong support for the home textile industry.

According to statistics from the National Bureau of Statistics of 1,514 home textile enterprises above designated size, industrial sales increased by more than 23% in the first half of 2011, export delivery value increased by 24.87% year-on-year, and profit indicators showed a year-on-year increase of 31.64%. It can be seen that my country’s home textile industry maintained a growth momentum in the first half of 2011. According to the Bamboo Fiber Franchise Network, since June, the home textile market has shown a sluggish trend. First, domestic sales have not shown the strong demand in the same period in previous years; second, the number of exports has declined, and the high cost of production factors has led to a rapid increase in production costs. , product price transmission is not smooth. In 2011, cotton prices fluctuated significantly and production costs continued to rise. Based on the above situation, cotton spinning companies focused on developing new fibers, new fabrics, new technologies, and new products to provide more choices for home textile companies to open up markets and jointly increase the added value of products.

Application of new fibers and technologies to enhance product added value

According to the Bamboo Fiber Franchise Network, by the end of 2010, there were approximately more than 70,000 tons of new fibers in the domestic cotton spinning market. Among them, bamboo fiber and other fibers have been widely used in the production of home textile products and have been recognized by consumers. Others, such as Tencel, chitosan fiber, corn silk-like fiber, milk fiber, soybean fiber, wood fiber and other new fibers are being developed and gradually used in the production practice of home textile products.

The cross-section of bamboo fiber is covered with large and small oval pores, and is highly hollow, which can absorb and evaporate a large amount of water instantly, giving bamboo fiber good moisture absorption and breathability. The fiber has natural antibacterial and antibacterial properties and can resist the proliferation of bacteria; it is biodegradable and can be completely degraded by microorganisms and sunlight in the soil. This decomposition process will not cause environmental pollution. The textiles produced from this fiber have properties such as finer unit fineness, smooth hand feel, strong toughness and wear resistance, and excellent recovery and drape properties. At present, bamboo fiber has been widely used in the development and production of home textile products and has been favored by consumers.

In recent years, the application and promotion of new spinning technology have achieved remarkable results. In particular, the corresponding compact spinning and siro spinning modifications on the ring spinning machine have made the bamboo fiber yarn less hairy, wear-resistant, and compact in structure, which greatly meets the fabric style requirements of home textile products. According to the Bamboo Fiber Franchise Network www.037066.com, bamboo fiber yarn spun through siro spinning technology has been accelerated in its promotion and use. Super-soft compact spinning of bamboo fiber is a new type of yarn developed in recent years. Different from traditional spinning technology, super-compact spinning yarn has the characteristics of small kink number and small twist coefficient, which not only retains the bamboo fiber Compact spun yarn has smooth finish, good strength and color fastness, and does not need to add softeners and hair removers to achieve a softer effect than ring spinning. Super compact spinning yarn is tight on the inside and loose on the outside, relatively fluffy and soft to the touch. At the same time, it retains the characteristics of bamboo fiber compact spinning, can remove mercerization and dehairing processes, and is more environmentally friendly. Bamboo fiber towels and bathrobes made of ultra-soft compact yarn are soft, comfortable and highly hygroscopic.
