The term colour fastness is used in the textile industry to describe the resistance that a dyed fabric has to its colour running, fading or rubbing off onto other materials. Apparel and textile manufacturers need to ensure that when a customer washes their product in the recommended conditions, minimal colour fading occurs and colour does not run.
We are pleased to be joining forces with VeriVide, experts in visual and digital colour measurement and assessment, to bring you a webinar which looks at the full process of colour fastness to domestic laundering testing. This includes testing in a rotating laundering tester which uses steel containers, through to the assessment and grading process in colour assessment cabinets or by using a colour imaging system.
This webinar will cover:
• What is colour fastness to laundering and why do we test for it?
• What standards and equipment is used?
• The test process, focusing on the standards ISO 105-C06 and AATCC TM 61
• The visual assessment process, with a colour assessment cabinet and colour measurement system
• Determining what constitutes a pass?
• Top tips and common mistakes
