Industry selection

Technical Selection & Resources

Start with fabric construction and final hand feel, then define the print or coating role and use tests.

What to confirm

Fabric construction

Describe fiber composition, construction, absorbency and existing finishing treatments.

Process role

Specify printing or coating use, application method and drying conditions.

Appearance and feel

Provide target softness, pattern effect, coverage and coating-weight preferences.

Use and care

Define wash, rub, adhesion or other tests and care conditions for the intended end use.

Selection FAQs

Looking for waterborne polyurethane for textiles?

The three grades listed here, 2002, 2008 and 2010, are acrylic emulsions. For a waterborne PU requirement, share your fabric, process role, drying conditions and test requirements so FAST can confirm materials and documentation available for evaluation.

Why should different fabrics be sampled separately?

Selection should account for fiber, fabric construction and finishing. Confirm compatibility, appearance and hand feel on the actual fabric before evaluating use performance.

How can hand-feel comparisons be made more consistent?

Provide a reference fabric and hold add-on, application and drying conditions constant when comparing feel and appearance.

How should home-textile and garment uses be distinguished?

Describe the finished article, use environment and care method, then confirm the relevant tests. Similar industry categories do not replace project-specific acceptance conditions.
