Fabric Finishing at ORTUS International India

At ORTUS International India, we pride ourselves on offering a wide range of fabric finishes that enhance texture, appearance, and durability. These finishes add significant value by improving the overall quality and functionality of the fabric. Here, we explore the different types of finishes we provide.

  1. Enzyme Wash Enzyme Wash is a popular finish used to soften fabrics like denim and give them a worn-in look. This eco-friendly process uses enzymes to break down fibers, resulting in a faded, vintage appearance while reducing water and energy consumption compared to traditional stone-washing.
  2. Anti-pilling Treatment Anti-pilling Treatment helps prevent the formation of pills on the fabric's surface. Pilling occurs when fibers tangle and form small balls, which can affect the fabric's appearance and longevity. This treatment extends the fabric's lifespan by maintaining its original look.
  3. Calendaring Calendaring involves using heat and pressure to smooth and polish the fabric's surface. This process imparts a glossy, shiny finish and enhances the fabric's strength and durability.
  4. Tumbling Tumbling uses a large machine to tumble the fabric with abrasive materials like stones, sand, or metal balls. This process softens the fabric, gives it a worn-out look, removes excess dye, and improves colorfastness.
  5. Brushing Brushing uses metal or wire brushes to raise fibers on the fabric's surface, creating a soft and fuzzy texture. This finish, commonly seen in flannel and fleece, also enhances insulation and warmth.
  6. Dyeing Dyeing is the process of coloring fabric to achieve specific hues. We offer various dyeing techniques, including:
    • Solid Dyeing: Immersing the fabric in a dye bath for uniform color.
    • Yarn Dyeing: Dyeing the yarn before weaving or knitting, resulting in patterned or striped fabrics.
    • Digital Printing: Utilizing advanced technology to print high-quality, detailed patterns directly onto the fabric.
  7. Coating Coating involves applying a layer of polymer or resin to the fabric's surface, enhancing water resistance, breathability, and durability. Coatings can also provide a glossy or matte finish.
  8. Mercerization Mercerization treats cotton fibers with caustic soda, causing them to swell and straighten. This process improves the fabric's strength, luster, and dye absorption, making mercerized cotton ideal for dress shirts and fine linens.

In addition to these finishes, we also offer specialty finishes such as flame retardant, water repellent, and wrinkle-resistant treatments. These finishes add specific functionalities, making the fabric suitable for a wide range of applications.
