Composition & Records
Traceability Methodology
How fibre composition is determined
Fibre composition is declared on a weight basis using controlled input ratios, batch-wise yarn production records, and supplier documentation, according to prevailing textile-industry practice for blended yarns.
Technical limitation disclosure: Due to the cellulosic nature of fibres used, laboratory differentiation of individual fibre percentages post-spinning is technically limited under current standard methods.
