Will the next yarn batch be the same?

"Will the next batch be the same?"

For anyone buying cotton yarn, this is one of the key questions. Consistent yarn properties determine the quality of the knitted fabric, and in turn the quality of the finished garment.

Among Global Textile's international certifications, one relates directly to this question. It is called Usterized®.

The name comes from Uster Technologies, a company named after the Swiss town of Uster, where its history began. Today the company's instruments help textile mills around the world measure what the eye cannot judge accurately, such as yarn strength, evenness and the number of defects.

To earn Usterized® status, a spinning mill undergoes an audit by Uster specialists. They assess laboratory work, measurement accuracy and the entire quality control system.

Certification calls for significant investment, qualified specialists and ongoing compliance with strict requirements. That is why Usterized® remains a quality mark held by relatively few yarn producers.

At Global Textile, the answer to the next-batch question comes as test results. Every one of them is backed by the same quality control system.
