Our 100% In-House Vertical Production Workflow

Yarn Selection & IQC
01

Yarn Selection & IQC

We partner with world-class spinning mills to source premium raw materials, including GRS-certified recycled polyester and LYCRA® elastane. Every batch undergoes strict in-house IQC to guarantee consistent yarn tension and quality.

High-Gauge Knitting
02

High-Gauge Knitting

Using advanced 18G to 50G knitting machinery, we produce squat-proof, high-density fabrics. Our climate-controlled facility eliminates tension variations to ensure exceptional 4-way stretch and shape recovery.

Custom Eco-Dyeing
03

Custom Eco-Dyeing

Utilizing low-liquor ratio vats and OEKO-TEX® certified dyestuffs, we guarantee outstanding color consistency (Delta E < 1.0). Our digital color-matching ensures exact brand palettes and rapid lab dip turnarounds.

Performance Fabric Finishing
04

Performance Fabric Finishing

We precisely heat-set fabrics using advanced stenters to control shrinkage and weight. Here, we apply functional finishes—like moisture-wicking, anti-odor, UV protection, and peach-brushing—to match your garment specifications.

Rigorous Quality Assurance
05

Rigorous Quality Assurance

Every yard undergoes a final 100% inspection following the international 4-Point System. Our in-house lab tests for shrinkage, pilling resistance, and stretch recovery to ensure zero-defect delivery.

Our Technical Knitting FacilityHigh-Gauge Technical Knitting

Cofinay operates a high-gauge knitting plant equipped with advanced German warp-knitting technology and high-precision circular knitting machinery. By utilizing premium German needles and digital yarn tension regulators, we eliminate tension variations and physical defects. This ensures an ultra-smooth, flawless greige surface—the perfect foundation for premium yoga wear and athletic tights.

Creeling & Tension Setup

Cones are carefully mounted on creels, balancing all yarn paths for uniform tension control.

German Warp-Knitting & Needles

We operate high-precision circular knitting machinery equipped with German Groz-Beckert Litespeed® needles, ensuring exceptionally uniform loop formation and highly consistent, defect-free fabric structures.

18G–50G Ultra-Fine Gauge

Our high-gauge capability produces compact, high-density fabrics. This achieves excellent opacity (squat-proof performance) while retaining a lightweight, buttery-soft, "second-skin" hand feel.

Automated Flaw Detection

By combining continuous automated scanning sensors with hands-on monitoring by our skilled technicians, we instantly detect and rectify yarn flaws to prevent bulk fabric defects.

Our Dyeing & Finishing FacilityThe 12-Step Journey of Digital Color & Performance Finishing

01/Pre-Scouring

Removes knitting oils and machine residues from the fabric to prevent spot defects and ensure uniform dyestuff absorption.

02/Pre-Setting

Eliminates internal fabric stress and stabilizes initial width and density on stenter frames to prevent creasing during subsequent wet processing.

03/Air Tumbling

Utilizing Italy’s Biancalani AIRO®24, high-speed air currents mechanically tumble and soften the fabric to unlock maximum loft, elasticity, and comfort.

04/Color Matching

Our chemists use digital spectrophotometers to analyze targets and prepare precise dye formulas for perfect color reproduction.

05/Jet Dyeing

Bulk fabrics are dyed in modern high-temperature, low-liquor ratio jet machines to achieve deep color penetration and superior fastness.

06/Shade Auditing

Every dyed batch is audited under standard D65 light sources and computerized systems to ensure Delta E deviation is under 1.0.

07/Dewatering

Excess moisture is gently removed via continuous centrifugal extractors to prepare the wet fabric for open-width processing.

08/Fabric Slitting

Automatically de-twists, slits, and flattens rope-form fabric into an open-width state to ensure uniform subsequent finishing.

09/Wet Sueding

Equipped with Santex Rimar wet-sueding technology, we gently raise a fine fiber nap to deliver our signature buttery-soft, peach-skin hand feel.

10/Final Setting

Fabrics are heat-set on stenter frames to lock in final GSM and shrinkage, while simultaneously applying performance finishes like moisture-wicking.

11/Lab Testing

Every batch is tested in our in-house lab for shrinkage, pilling resistance, color fastness, and stretch recovery before release.

12/Warehousing

Inspected rolls are precision-packaged, tagged with GRS/OEKO-TEX traceability barcodes, and organized in our digital warehouse for delivery.

Our Multi-Gate Inspection & CNAS Testing ProceduresWe verify quality at every milestone to ensure we achieve an ultra-low B2B complaint rate of <0.5%

QC Gate 1 - Yarn Strength & Density Check
Gate 01
Inbound Raw Materials

Yarn Strength & Density Check

Prior to production, we verify raw yarn parameters—including tensile strength, yarn count, and moisture regain—to ensure absolute material consistency from the very source.

QC Gate 2 - Knitting Tension & Roll Weight Monitor
Gate 02
In-Line Production

Tension & Roll Weight Monitor

Our technicians conduct continuous, on-loom inspections of tension, knitting density, and structural defects during both the knitting and finishing stages.

Answer

Yes. We offer free activewear fabric swatch catalog hangers containing our flagship high-stretch Nylon and Polyester activewear fabrics to verified sportswear brands. You only need to verify your business email or brand website to request one.

Answer

Our standard custom dyeing MOQ to match your specified Pantone code is 100 KG per color. For specifications that we permanently stock in greige form, we can accept trial order MOQs down to 50 KG per color.

Answer

We utilize Datacolor digital spectrophotometers. Every bulk dyeing batch is evaluated and matched against the confirmed sample using the CMC 2:1 color difference formula, keeping Delta E strictly below 1.0.

Answer

Yes, we are GRS certified. Once your order of recycled nylon or recycled polyester is shipped, we can officially apply and issue the Transaction Certificate (TC) via our certifying body to verify full traceability.

Answer

Our fabrics undergo digital pre-shrinking and tension-free drying. We guarantee that all fabrics comply with AATCC 135 washing standards, keeping dimensional shrinkage strictly within +/-3%.

Answer

Upon receiving your Pantone TCX/TPX code or a physical swatch, we will formulate recipes and dispatch 3 to 4 Lab Dips variations within 3 to 5 business days.

Answer

Yes. Our R&D laboratory specializes in yarn analysis, structural decoding, and replicating handfeel. Once we receive your physical sample, we will send you a duplicate reference sample and technical specifications.

Answer

Yes, we permanently maintain over 500 tons of undyed greige fabrics (nylon, polyester, spandex blends) in our warehouse. This enables custom dyeing in just 7 to 10 days, bypass the long weaving times.

Answer

We accept EXW shipping terms. Our standard payment terms are 30% deposit prior to production, and 70% balance paid after 4-point system quality inspection and before shipment.

Answer

We apply an anti-phenolic yellowing treatment during the production stage. This prevents phenolic yellowing at the source, keeping the fabric white throughout transport and storage.
