Woven fabric requirements

Metallic Yarn for Weaving Units

Connect the intended woven fabric and decorative effect with the yarn construction, colour and technical details already known by the weaving team.

Start with the woven fabric

Share the fabric construction, intended visual effect and the yarn specifications already known so the requirement can be reviewed more efficiently. If the yarn has a defined position or use within the fabric, include that context as well.

Weaving Applications and Weaving Zari frame the end use, while Metallic Yarn provides the technical metallic-yarn routes.

Construction details

Include denier, TPM, twist and yarn construction when available. Use Zari Lab to align these terms before the enquiry.

Appearance in the weave

Describe the decorative effect, colour or finish and whether the yarn is intended for a particular fabric area or woven feature.

Review the weaving application route

A saree, jacquard or brocade brief may place different emphasis on appearance, pattern and fabric construction. Review Saree, Jacquard and Brocade application context before selecting a sample route.

Where machine or process requirements affect yarn selection, include them in the enquiry. The construction can then be discussed against the intended fabric and the information supplied by the weaving unit.

Sample trial

Request a sample with the fabric, effect, colour and known specification so the proposed yarn can be evaluated in context.

Production brief

Bring the reviewed sample, fabric construction, technical details and quantity context into the commercial enquiry.

What should a weaving unit share first?

Share the intended woven fabric, decorative effect, yarn position where known, colour or finish, available denier, TPM, twist or construction details, and any sample reference.

Can process requirements be included in the review?

Yes. Include relevant machine or process requirements when they affect yarn selection so the brief can be reviewed against the intended weaving use.
