Moisture Wicking Finish Specification Targets for Buyers
Setting Moisture Wicking Finish correctly on a tech pack prevents most later disputes. Targets belong on the page before the first fabric sample.
Where to write it
Place Moisture Wicking Finish next to composition and weight so all three are quoted as one package. Working figures for Moisture Wicking Finish normally sit around durability 10-20 washes in mainstream production. Note AATCC 195 before and after washing on the tech pack so nobody tests against an older revision.
Reference level
Typical activewear expectation: durability 10-20 washes. Record elastane content alongside Moisture Wicking Finish, because blends shift the measured value. A result outside durability 10-20 washes usually points to process drift rather than to the fibre itself.
Tolerances that work
Allow a small tolerance rather than a fixed number, since normal process variation exists in every lot. Keeping reference values for Moisture Wicking Finish lets suppliers quote without extra sampling rounds. Ask for conditioning details together with AATCC 195 before and after washing, since both affect the reading.
Verification method
Confirm with AATCC 195 before and after washing and keep the report against the bulk record. Working figures for Moisture Wicking Finish normally sit around durability 10-20 washes in mainstream production. Note AATCC 195 before and after washing on the tech pack so nobody tests against an older revision.
Commercial note
Tightening beyond practical need raises cost without improving garment life, so set the tightest target only where it protects the customer. Record elastane content alongside Moisture Wicking Finish, because blends shift the measured value. A result outside durability 10-20 washes usually points to process drift rather than to the fibre itself.
