What does the 'K-Textile certification' mentioned in the material description mean?
While looking through the sportswear introduction, I encountered an unfamiliar certification name. It makes me want to know what standards make it different from typical functional fabrics.
It is a mark indicating that an accredited domestic institution has recognized the yarn and fabric as excellent products produced in Korea, meaning the clothes are made based on the parent company's fabric technology.
It is an official mark indicating reliable fabric produced domestically. The K-Textile certification, reviewed and granted by the Korea Federation of Textile Industries, is given to textiles that meet domestic manufacturing processes and quality standards.
PLAKNIT is an eco-friendly sportswear brand introduced by fabric manufacturing company Woojoo Global through its subsidiary Abird Company[1][2]. The starting point is different. Unlike the method of purchasing fabric from outside to make clothes, it applies directly woven materials based on the fabric manufacturing technology of its parent company, which received certification from the Korea Federation of Textile Industries[3][4].
hmmm, for a sportswear brand to put an official certification from a fabric manufacturer at the forefront is an attempt to prove the reliability of the material—the foundation of the clothing—before its design.
The specific eco-friendly fabric blend ratios and detailed functional specifications of Woojoo Global, which obtained this certification, have not yet been confirmed.
