Inconsistent quality meansloss of profitsVariations in the thickness of the yarn cause an uneven appearance– often recognized as a pattern, an irregular structure or avariation in color.Today consumers’ increased quality expectations demand thequality to be matched with the brand and the price paid. In thecase of this T-shirt the retailer is forced to sell the product as“second quality” at a lower price or may not be able to sell theproduct at all.Multi-purpose laboratory testing systems can measure yarnproperties to ensure consistent quality.Unbeständige Qualität wirkt sichauf den Profit ausEine hohe Garnungleichmässigkeit führt zu einem ungleichmässigenGewebebild. Es entstehen Muster oder Unterschiedein der Farbintensität.Die hohen Erwartungen der Konsumenten setzen voraus, dassdie Qualität dem Preis und der Marke entspricht. Im Fall desabgebildeten T-Shirts ist der Händler gezwungen, das Produktals „2. Wahl“ zu einem reduzierten Preis anzubieten, wenn eres denn überhaupt verkaufen kann.Mit Mehrzweck-Laborprüfsystemen lassen sich Garneigenschaftenmessen und damit eine beständige Qualitätgewährleisten.
