As the UK’s largest commission printer and fabric dyehouse, we know how important it is that our customers get the best quality fabrics possible.
We take quality seriously at Pincroft, which is why we are a trusted partner for businesses and militaries across the globe and we stand out from the competition. We also don’t just say that we’ll deliver great quality fabrics, but we prove these claims every time.
So how do we do this?
We have a state-of-the-art lab at our fabric dyehouse where all of our fabrics undergo rigorous testing to ensure they meet a wide range of criteria and can withstand repeated laundering so they deliver on performance.
Our tests include:
- Abrasion and pilling
Air permeability
Colour fastness
Infrared wavelength interpretation
Tear strength
By testing our fabrics, we ensure that they meet our clients expectations and are suitable for the intended purpose, whether that’s as office attire, military uniforms or hotel bedding.
How else do we provide quality assurance?
We don’t just carry out extensive tests on our fabric, over 130 years of manufacturing in the UK we have perfected our tried and trusted methods for guaranteed quality assurance.
We utilise modern computerised colour matching and shade evaluation equipment to ensure precise and repeatable colour is achieved.
We carry out LaB colour testing to ensure that the fabric colour is perfect down to the specific shade and tone.
We use manual and automatic inspection to make sure all of our fabric meets customer requirements. Using a mixture of these techniques allows us to notice any issues straight away and get a computerised breakdown of any imperfections.
Not only do our dyeing processes achieve the necessary safety standards to comply with OEKO-TEX® standard 100, but they ensure that your fabric will withstand repeated industrial laundering and wear.
We have the capabilities to do what other commission printers cannot so we can meet your requirements and make your design dreams come true.
