Ontario, Canada-based Fine Cotton Factory is taking on one of the textile industry’s biggest headaches: fabric shrinkage.
The technical knit mill and apparel manufacturer has introduced a proprietary solution called 333 Jersey, which reduces shrinkage to 3 percent or less after a product is laundered by the end consumer. The exclusive technology uses a high degree of twisting force to give yarns their strength, compactly winding them to create a pre-shrunk effect and cut down on fabric contraction.
