Yesterday, reporters visited some shopping malls, supermarkets and clothing stores to understand that at present, regular manufacturers of clothing products, will be marked on the label product type, fabric composition, washing methods and other information, but did not specify the shrinkage rate of products.

The shrinkage of raw materials, density, thickness and production technology of textiles will be affected. Generally speaking, the shrinkage rate of synthetic fiber and blended fabric is small, and wool, linen and cotton fabrics are in the middle. The shrinkage of silk fabrics is larger, and the shrinkage of viscose fibers is larger.

Reporters yesterday found that China's textile industry standards for different textiles "shrinkage rate" specific provisions, for example, knitted T-shirts, superior products shrinkage rate should not exceed 3%, first-class and qualifying products must not exceed 5%-6%; knitted casual wear, superior products shrinkage rate should not exceed 4%, first-class and qualified products must not exceed 5%; bed top quality shrinkage rate should not exceed 3%, first-class goods must not exceed 4%, qualified products must not exceed 5%.
