Colour Fastness Testing

We can define colourfastness as, having colour that will not run or fade with washing or wear. That means characterizes a material’s colour’s resistance to fading or running. Clothing is colourfast if its colours and dyes do not bleed or run from the clothing. Clothing should be tested for colourfastness before using any type of bleach or bleaching solution, or strong cleaning product. Colourfastness is very important factor for buyer. Colourfastness properties of textiles are an important measure of quality of a product.

Colour Fastness Testing on Fabrics can be done by 5 methods. They are

1. Colour Fastness due to rubbing

2. Colour Fastness due to washing / Dry-cleaning

3. Colour Fastness due to Perspiration and Sea Water

4. Colour Fastness due to sunlight

5. Colour Fastness due to hot pressing and Dry Heat

1. Testing colour Fastness due to Rubbing:

We use the following 3 instruments:
i. Manual Crockmeter:

Pantone Color Standars and Pantone Products

Pantone Color Standards are followed worldwide every day by over 10 million designer and manufacturer to select, communicate and approve color in any design. Pantone Color Standards will come in around 2500 color options for easy identification and communication.

Pantone Color Standards provides a universal language of color that enables color- critical decisions through every stage of the workflow for brands and manufacturers. Pantone color standards provide customized color standards, brand identity, and product color consulting. Pantone color standards bring color and design together across apparel, home, and accessories.

Pantone transformed the printing industry with the colourful PANTONE COLORS STANDARDS MATCHING SYSTEM, an innovative tool allowing for the accurate selection, articulation and reproduction of consistent, accurate color anywhere in the world.

Pantone color standards have influenced product development and purchasing decisions in multiple industries, including fashion, home furnishings, and industrial design, as well as product, packaging, and graphic design.

Pantone color Standards for the fashion/garment industry comes in two material formats.
• TCX – Cotton edition – Material used for pantone color standards production is 100% cotton
• TPG – Paper edition- Material used for pantone color standards production is 100% paper

A Pantone color standards not only help in choosing the right color but also helps to keep color consistent.

Blue Wool Standards

SDCE Light Fastness Standards 1 to 8 each pattern 15x25cm

These are a series of 8 wool fabrics dyed with specified blue dyes to give blue wool cloths ranging from very low light fastness to very high light fastness. This forms a numerical scale of 1 to 8 where 1 has the poorest light fastness, to 8 which has the best light fastness. This allows fabrics to be graded, using a Grey Scale for Change in Colour, for correlation with performance in use. This is used to predict the suitability for a given end use; typically apparel would be a minimum of grade 4 whilst furnishings would require a grade 6. They are used in the ISO 105 B series of tests and can be used in conjunction with the Humidity Control fabric for machine calibration.

To complement the range of Blue Wool Standards we also supply specially prepared mounted card that is totally free of any optical brightening agents. This ensures mounted samples are easier to grade as the card does not show a significant Colour change. It is widely recognised that the Colour of the background can influence how an item is finally graded.

SDCE Humidity Control Fabric

This is an azoic dyed cotton fabric with specified fading properties, which varies with the amount of relative humidity.

It is used as a calibration tool for light fastness testing. When the humidity of the light fastness testing machine is correctly set it will fade at an identical rate to the light fastness standard Number 5. It is supplied with a printed instruction sheet for its use to determine the correct settings for the relevant ISO 105 B series test method
