What are the several textures of hotel linen and their advantages and disadvantages?

May 23, 2024

COMMON CONCEPTS:


1. YARN FINENESS


The representation of yarn fineness is generally divided into two categories: fixed length system and fixed weight system.


a. Fixed length system


In the fixed length system, there are two kinds of Tex system (metric system) and Denier system (imperial system), which 

are generally used to indicate the fineness of pure chemical fiber filament and natural long 1 filament.


b. Fixed weight system


In the fixed weight system, there are two kinds of metric count (metric) and imperial count (imperial). Here only focuses on 

the commonly used imperial count, which is generally used to show the fineness of pure cotton yarns and polyester yarns 

in Table 


The imperial count is defined as a number of pieces per pound of yarn at a common moisture regain rate (about 9.89%6), 

which is a number of 840 yards, often represented by "S". Such as pure cotton yarn in the public moisture recovery rate (about 9.89%6) 

when the weight of 11 pounds, its length is 40×840 yards that is 33600 yards, the cotton yarn is 40, commonly used "40S", generally 

speaking, the larger the number of yarn, the finer the yarn, the greater the difficulty of spinning, more processes, high equipment 

requirements, and the higher the requirements for cotton quality 1 quantity,(requirements for cotton pile length) ), the higher the 

price per ton of yarn.(Martha Andy selected Xinjiang high-quality long staple cotton), it is not difficult to understand the difference 

in the price of 40 fabrics and 6 fabrics.



2. Density


Density - used to indicate the number of yarn roots per unit length of woven fabric, generally 1 inch or 10 centimeters of yarn roots, China's 

national standard stipulates the use of 10 centimeters of yarn roots to represent the density, but textile enterprises are still used to use 1 inch 

of yarn roots to represent the density. It is divided into warp density and weft density.


a. Warp density -- fabric length direction; This direction yarn is called warp yarn; The number of yarns arranged within 1 inch is warp density (warp density);


b. weft density -- fabric width direction; The directional yarn is called the weft yarn, and the number of yarns arranged within 1 inch is the weft 

density (weft density); As usually seen in the hotel linen, "40X40/110×90" means that the warp and weft are 40, and the warp and weft density is 110,90.


3. Width


Width - the effective width of the fabric, generally used to be expressed in inches or centimeters, common 36 inches, 44 inches, 56-60 inches, etc., 

respectively called narrow, medium and wide, more than 60 inches of fabric for wide, generally called wide cloth, today's China's extra wide fabric 

width can reach 360 centimeters. Width is generally marked after density.


4. Weight in grams


Gram weight - the gram weight of the fabric is generally the gram number of square meters of fabric weight. The gram weight of VISA tablecloth 

used in hotels is an important technical index of the fabric.


5. Yarn-dyed


Yarn-dyed - Japan called "first dyed fabric ", refers to the first yarn or filament dyed, and then the use of color yarn weaving process, this fabric is 

called" yarn-dyed fabric ", the production of yarn-dyed fabric factory is generally called dyeing and weaving factory, such as the hotel with VISA 

checkered tablecloth and some do bed towel fabric is color fabric.



FABRIC CLASSIFICATION


1, according to different processing methods classified


(1) Woven fabric: fabric composed of yarns arranged vertically with each other, namely horizontal and longitudinal systems, interwoven on 

the loom according to certain laws.


(2) Knitted fabric: fabric formed by yarn knitting into a circle, divided into weft knitting and warp knitting.


(3) Nonwovens: loose fibers are bonded or stitched together. At present, two methods are mainly used: adhesion and puncture.


2, according to the fabric yarn raw materials classification


(1) Pure textile: the raw materials of the fabric are all made of the same fiber, including cotton fabric, wool fabric, silk fabric, polyester fabric, etc.


(2) Blended fabric: the raw materials of the fabric are made of two or more different kinds of fibers, which are blended into yarns, including 

polyester viscose, polyester nitrile, polyester cotton and other blended fabrics.


(3) Mixed fabric: the raw material of the fabric is made of single yarn of two kinds of fibers, which is made by merging into strands, such as 

low-elastic polyester filament and medium-length polyester filament, and polyester staple fiber and low-elastic polyester filament.


(4) Interwoven fabric: the raw materials that constitute the two directions of the fabric are respectively made of different fiber yarns.

(such as most of the bed skirt fabric and bed end towel fabric in the hotel linen are interwoven fabrics)


3, according to the composition of fabric raw materials dyeing classification


(1) White fabric: unbleached raw materials are processed into fabric, silk weaving is also known as raw goods fabric.


(2) Color fabric: the raw material or fancy thread after bleaching and dyeing is processed into fabric, silk weaving is also known as 

cooked fabric.



4, according to the structure of the fabric is divided into plain, twill, satin and jacquard organization.


Also known as plain, twill, satin and jacquard fabric (fabric), the hotel quilt cover, pillowcase, bed sheet these three fabrics are very common, 

the most used.(Satin strip fabric, back grid fabric, large jacquard fabric is a combination of one or more types of organization, the specific 

explanation must be combined with specific fabric).


5. Classification of novel fabrics


(1) Adhesive cloth: made of two pieces of fabric that are back-to-back to each other. (Hotel linen is usually not used).


(2) flocking processing cloth: The cloth is covered with short and dense fiber fluff, with velvet style, which can be used as clothing and decorative 

materials. (Some hotel curtains are such fabrics).


(3) Foam laminated fabric: foam is adhered to the woven fabric or knitted fabric as the base cloth, mostly used as cold clothing material. 

(Usually not used in hotels).


(4) Coated fabric: the woven fabric or knitted fabric is coated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), neoprene rubber, etc., which has superior waterproof 

function. (such as shower curtains in hotels).


3, PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO DISTINGUISH SEVERAL EASILY CONFUSED CONCEPTS:


1, yarn-dyed and printing dyeing:


a. yarn-dyeing - dyeing the yarn and then using colored yarn to weave the cloth, such as the plaid tablecloth used in many hotels.


b. printing and dyeing - the fabric after weaving is printed and dyed, such as many and many printed fabrics with rich patterns,


2. Blending and interweaving


a. Blending - the blending of two or more different fibers in the spinning process, and then weaving cloth with the blended yarn;


b. Interlace - fabric made of different kinds of yarn or fiber filaments (bundles) when weaving.
