Natural fibers such as cotton, linen, silk, and wool require cleaning, combing, and spinning to form yarns suitable for weaving or knitting. Chemical fibers such as polyester and nylon are processed into fibers through melting, stretching, and cutting, and then spun into yarns. The fineness, twist, and uniformity of the yarn directly affect the fabric's feel, strength, and weaving performance. Yarns are woven or knitted to form fabrics. Woven fabrics use interlacing warp and weft yarns to create plain weave, twill, and satin weaves, resulting in a stable structure and uniform thickness, suitable for outerwear, shirts, and home textiles. Knitted fabrics, on the other hand, use warp or weft knitting to create a mesh structure, offering good elasticity and softness, suitable for casual wear, sportswear, and underwear. The weaving method and structure directly determine the fabric's density, elasticity, drape, and breathability.
Furniture undergoes finishing and functional treatments to enhance its performance and aesthetics. Common finishing processes include dyeing, printing, softening, wrinkle-resistant, waterproofing, and UV protection. Composite fabrics may be given waterproof, windproof, or warming properties through coating, heat pressing, or laminating techniques. A well-balanced combination of production processes ensures that fabrics meet application requirements in terms of comfort, durability, and functionality, satisfying the needs of various apparel, home textiles, and industrial products.
