The company specializes in a variety of product lines, including fine yarns, premium yarns, recycled fabrics, chiffon, and rayon. The company also offers finishing services such as dyeing, paper printing, screen printing, and metallic printing. Furthermore, Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co., Ltd. is able to provide process support for fake linen production.
Raw Material Selection and Blending: Fibers and Blending: In the production of fake linen, Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co., Ltd. leverages its abundant raw material resources, using blends of polyester, nylon, recycled fibers, and hemp fibers. The company is able to select high-quality recycled fibers for fake linen fabrics, which provide high durability and wrinkle resistance. The recycled fabrics produced by the company effectively reduce the environmental burden while maintaining the comfort and texture of fake linen.
Textile Technology: Fine Weaving: Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co., Ltd. utilizes advanced weaving equipment to produce fake linen using a variety of weaving techniques, mimicking the appearance of natural linen. The company can produce fabrics with various weave structures, such as plain, twill, and variable weave, to provide fake linen with a variety of textures and styles. Furthermore, the company can customize the texture of the fabrics to meet customer needs, such as using a variety of satin and jacquard weaves to simulate the rough or soft texture of linen.
Finishing Technology: Dyeing and Printing Technology: Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co., Ltd. has strong technical capabilities in dyeing and printing, providing high-quality finishing for fake linen fabrics. Through a variety of dyeing processes (such as reactive dyeing and disperse dyeing) and printing (such as watermarking, paper printing, and metallic printing), fake linen can achieve long-lasting color and pattern effects, simulating the natural color and texture of natural linen fabrics.
Metallic Printing/Watermarking: Metallic printing or watermarking can enhance the gloss of fake linen, giving it a more fashionable look. These processes enhance the visual appeal of fake linen fabrics and meet consumers' diverse aesthetic needs.
Enhancing Fabric Functionality: Wrinkle Resistance and Softness: Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co., Ltd. uses sophisticated finishing processes such as coating and softening to effectively improve the wrinkle resistance and softness of fake linen, making it not only resemble linen but also highly wrinkle-resistant and comfortable. Leveraging the company's advanced technology, the elasticity and stability of fake linen fabrics are greatly improved, avoiding the wrinkle-proneness of traditional linen fabrics.
Environmental Protection and Sustainability: Recycled Fabrics and Eco-Friendly Dyeing: Shaoxing Yongjun Textile Co., Ltd. is also committed to environmentally friendly production. In the production of fake linen, recycled fibers are used to reduce resource consumption, and environmentally friendly dyes and processes are employed. This production method not only improves the quality of the fabric but also meets modern consumers' concerns about environmental protection and sustainability, enhancing the market competitiveness of fake linen.
How wrinkle-resistant and easy-care is fake linen?
Fake linen is generally more wrinkle-resistant and easy-care than natural linen fabrics. These advantages are primarily due to its synthetic composition and production process.
Wrinkle Resistance:
The addition of synthetic fibers: The synthetic fibers (such as polyester and nylon) in fake linen enhance the fabric's wrinkle resistance. Synthetic fibers are more elastic than natural fibers (such as linen or cotton) and are less susceptible to external pressure or friction, thus reducing the formation of wrinkles. Compared to pure linen fabrics, fake linen fabrics exhibit significantly improved wrinkle resistance, maintaining a smooth appearance when worn.
Weaving Method and Finishing: Through sophisticated weaving and finishing processes such as heat setting and softening, fake linen fabrics have a smoother surface texture, which helps reduce the formation of wrinkles.
Ease of Care:
Durability and Cleaning: Due to the synthetic fibers contained in fake linen fabrics, they are generally more durable and stain-resistant than natural linen fabrics. Synthetic fibers effectively avoid the staining issues associated with linen, making fake linen easier to clean and maintain.
Fading Resistance: Synthetic fiber dyes are typically more durable, making fake linen less prone to fading or discoloration during washing. Compared to pure linen, fake linen exhibits improved colorfastness during washing.
No Special Care Required: Compared to natural linen, fake linen is less likely to wrinkle, warp, or damage, and generally does not require expensive or complex dry cleaning. Most fake linen fabrics are machine washable and withstand high-temperature washing, making them less susceptible to shrinkage.
Quick Drying: Synthetic fibers have low water absorption, making fake linen dry quickly. Even after washing, it quickly returns to its original shape, eliminating the need for traditional linen fabrics to dry for a long time.
What are the washing and care requirements for fake linen?
Due to its synthetic composition and durability, fake linen is easier to wash and care for than natural linen.
Washing Temperature: Fake linen can generally be washed in warm water. Generally, a water temperature of 40°C to 60°C is suitable and will not affect the color or shape of the fabric. High-temperature washing may damage some synthetic fibers, so avoid using excessively high temperatures.
Washing Instructions:
Machine Wash: Due to its synthetic fiber content, fake linen is generally safe to machine wash and will not easily lose its shape or shrink. When machine washing, use a gentle cycle and avoid excessive agitation.
Hand Wash: When hand washing, avoid using strong detergents or excessive rubbing. A mild, neutral detergent can be used and gently scrubbed.
Drying Instructions:
Air Drying: Fake linen's synthetic fibers typically do not shrink or warp like linen after air drying, so it can be hung to dry in a well-ventilated area.
Avoid High-Temperature Tumble Drying: Although fake linen is more heat-resistant than linen, it should still be avoided in a dryer, especially if the fabric contains a high concentration of natural fibers. High-temperature drying may cause the fabric to lose its shape or become damaged.
Ironing Instructions: If fake linen is slightly wrinkled, use a low-temperature iron. Due to its synthetic composition, avoid using high temperatures when ironing to avoid surface damage or gloss changes. Some fake linen fabrics may not require ironing and will return to a smooth, flat state after air drying.
Avoid contact with chemicals: Fake linen fabrics should be protected from contact with harsh chemicals such as bleach, strong acids, or strong bases during use. These substances may damage the synthetic fibers, causing aging, fading, or structural damage.
Regular Care: To extend the life of fake linen fabrics, we recommend regular cleaning to maintain breathability and cleanliness. Additionally, avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight to help prevent fading.
These simple washing and care instructions ensure that fake linen maintains its appearance and performance in everyday life while also facilitating regular care and maintenance.
