Textile – Clothing

Technical textile factories have specific needs that differ from traditional textile factories due to the advanced and specialized nature of their products.

High-precision weaving or knitting machines require very specific air quality, especially for fibres such as aramid, carbon, polypropylene, and polyester.

The same applies to coating, laminating, and surface treatment applications during specific chemical treatments to improve textile properties (heat resistance, anti-UV, etc.).

ETT, recognized as an air treatment specialist, will be able to assist you in designing the best technical solution.

The main objective is to adapt to technological developments and market requirements to maintain their competitiveness and meet the varied needs of customers.

Textile manufacturing workshops are subject to various constraints related to worker comfort, which can directly influence productivity, work quality, and the general well-being of employees.

Due to its strong experience in this field, ETT has become a reference in the design and manufacture of autonomous air treatment machines. The challenges focus on three key points:

• Control geared to operator comfort
• Particular attention to air diffusion
• A very reduced noise level

Textile dyeing factories face unique environmental challenges in ensuring product quality, worker safety, and compliance with environmental regulations. 

Temperature control is critical for maintaining dye and treatment quality. Even slight temperature fluctuations can lead to colour inconsistencies and defects in the final product.

Humidity levels also play a crucial role, influencing how dyes penetrate and bond with textile fibres. Improper humidity can result in colour variations and fixation issues.

Effective ventilation is paramount in these facilities. It's essential for removing solvent vapours and chemical fumes used in dyeing processes. Poor ventilation not only poses health risks to workers but can also compromise product quality.

Ventilation systems must be designed to provide adequate air exchange while minimizing workers' exposure to potentially hazardous substances.

Controlling airborne particles, dust, and contaminants is another key factor. These elements can interfere with dyeing processes and impact the quality of finished products if not properly managed.

Implementing effective energy management strategies helps reduce costs and carbon footprint. Additionally, heat recovery systems can optimize energy use in the dyeing process by reclaiming heat from exhaust air and wastewater.

Clothing and fashion accessory factories have diverse energy needs depending on their production processes, facility size, and technologies used.

Well-designed ventilation and air conditioning systems are crucial for maintaining comfortable and safe working conditions.

Special attention must be given to certain processes, such as garment pressing to remove wrinkles or heat treatments used to set dyes or patterns. These processes often require heat sources that need careful management to ensure both efficiency and safety.

Textile factories rely on the same energy-intensive equipment as laundries for washing and drying processes. To address this, ETT offers high-efficiency, decarbonized solutions that can significantly reduce energy consumption and environmental impact.
