Goller“KNIT MERC”open width knit mercerizing range

Goller - A famous German leading company in manufacturing of open width textile processing ranges and has become a member of the CHTC Fongs Group since 2006. The integration of Goller into the CHTC Fongs Group has facilitated the proliferation of Gollers state-of-the-art wet finishing ranges all over the world. Starting from 2007， there are more than 400 Gollers ranges being manufactured at CHTC Fongs factory.

During ITMA 2019 Barcelona， Goller showed its latest model of knit mercerizing range， which is “KNIT MERC” together with the new generation of washing unit - Sintensa Cyclone Tandem， which is designed for generating high washing efficiency with minimal tension incurred. Goller knit mercerizing range has been commonly applied for enhancing the values of cellulosic fiber-made fabrics. By putting fabrics on Goller knit mercerizing range for mercerizing， the fabrics will be firstly immersed in caustic soda in high concentration， then followed by certain extent of tension applied. Mercerizing not only improves the dyeability but also the dimensional stability of fabrics. After the fabrics being mercerized， the luster gained is ever-lasting whereas a smoother hand-feel can be expected， which ends up bringing the overall quality of fabrics to the stand-outfrom-the-crowd level.

The very first set of Gollers Knit Merc has been sold to a customer who produces high-end knit fabrics in Portugal. With the demand of comfortable clothing growing year by year， it is expected that the applica- tion of mercerizied knit fabrics on garments will be increased accordingly.
