the video was so easy and helpful tq
No idea why this showed on my fyp, but im all on board.
@@gamingaceg.a4851 we talk about textiles in this channel! If you have questions, feel free to ask, have a good one!
I would like to suggest a subject ...pilling problem
@@noranabeel934 Thank you for the suggestion. In the next videos I will surely talk about pilling, stay tuned!!
The milk industry in proven to be some of the most polluting industries, while it takes a lot of food crops area for animal feed to produce- To procure the milk the cows are continuously pregnated and their babies- who the milk is for- are killed , and these mothers are known to cry after their missing calf’s for weeks while being sucked dry by machine, only to have this repeated As many a times as the mother cow can become pregnant. Doing this is so common that culturally people think it’s closer to breakfast than sa ta nism, but from energetic& spiritual point of view the opposite is true, and it’s up to each individual to wake up to the sadistic behavior$ they’re supporting while living on earth. We are unlimited spirits in a school for compassion on Earth, cows are animal teachers who give their lives as long as we feel we NEED to take them. The future of the planet is love and abundance for all - and to get there in this great awakening: we stop being cruel to each other, our selves, and the animals & the planet : it’s all you , we are all one , what we do, comes back to us. I’m sure for every pint of milk we drink we have a sad life as dairy cow, just to get both perspectives , this is how our soul evolves. And it doesn’t have to be through pain anymore, be it bloating, acne or animal cruelty: it doesn’t have to be so. 3D is over… We are becoming more responsible & aware to do better. By every day we choose to love others like we love ourselves 🙏 ❤Namaste
I've heard that it is an expensive process , is it?
@@noranabeel934 It is, that’s why it is not widespread in textile world. I am sure this is also due to lack of advertisement!
how to setting zigzag comb to reduce sticky yarn, but not make yarn brakage on comb?
@@redimaulidi It’s all about regulating and calibrating tension and speed. A good raw material surely can help. If you have sticky yarns though, you should perhaps measure the sizing bath.
Hello Alberto despite having a textile background i never heard of this fiber. I know I fiber called Qmilk which should be quite similar. The ideas are nice but often the commercialization fails. Do you know the Qmilk fiber and do you know the differences to Lanital? Have you ever heard about Carbios and there process to depolymerize PET? This could be an idea of a next video?
Hi and thank you for the interesting question. About Qmilk: of course I know it! In fact, when I was saying in the video: "Now Lanital as been rediscovered" I was indeed referring to milk fibres, such as Qmilk. Fun fact about this fibre: if you smell it, it really smells like milk! I honestly don't know the differences, because Lanital is no longer produced, but I suppose they are really quite the same thing. Regarding Carbios: I didn't know it (thanks for sharing it with me), but I know other similar technologies. PET depolymerization is really interesting and returns every now and then, but has several issues: it's expensive, it's slow and requires specific production plants with a high-educated personnel. So far, polyamide can be chemically depolymerized and chemically recycled, whereas PET is just mechanically recycled. We will see in the future! (BTW: I will surely make a video regarding the recycling of PET, thanks for the hint!).
@@textilewithalberto998 regarding the Process of Carbios it is a enzymatic process. So the Esther gets destroyed and you get MEG and PTA. Then you synthesize ist back to PET. At the End you get a virgin PET fiber. Yes it will cost something and more like mechanical recycling but you can fulfill EUs regulations and end up with a fiber without using crude oil. SASA of Turkey is in Contact with them and could adapt this process. Anyway thanks for your work and greetings from Germany.
@@TheWechris Thank you for sharing your beautiful ideas with me, I will surely make a video talking about this in the future. Greetings from Italy!
Thanks 🎉
interesting
mega professionale
Grazie mille!
Good
Excellent video.
Really interesting presentation - thank you. Please could you make a video of a jacquard loom working - but slowed down for clearer explanation.
@@MarkE-v8o Hi Mark, unfortunately I don’t have my own weaving mill, but I will surely do it in the future, as sono as I have the possibility!
Hi , I saw all of your videos it’s useful ,thanks , I have one question if you don’t mind , I am willing to work as a fashion buyer, is there an approximate price for each textile materials so I can know the right price for a peace of cloth? I mean for example ,world wide today one meter of 100% satin polyester is how much ? is there a list price for each fabric or each weaving process ?
You can contact me on textilewithalberto@gmail.com, but anyway it depends on the type of polyester, type of weaving, type of finishing, etc. 1 meter of satin polyester can go from € 3,00/meter to € 50,00!
Sir we are manufacturing jaquard fabrics we are exporting i need to contact you, can i get your mail id

Do you think non-woven material is deemed as food grade? e.g. to use as tea or coffee bags or as filter?
Nonwovens can be indeed used for filters, also in food industry.
is there a more eco friendly version of elastane? Like a version that is still stretchy, but it stands out from other types in the eco-friendly category
@@capkapchannel4587 There is natural rubber. The performances are very similar, elasticity is good. Only downside is that it dries and crumbles faster than elastane (still elastane doesn't have a long shelf life. After 6 months it starts deteriorating)
@@textilewithalberto998 Thank you so much for the info!
You were saying a word like "veil" around 2:48, I'm not sure if "fibre" or "layer" or what would be a better word here but that didn't seem quite right. Nonwoven clothing: You forgot about felt! felt is a nonwoven that is widely used for hats and is not at all a low quality material in that context.
nice bro
Thank you!
Really Nice🖕

If I have a piece of clothing made from 91% polyamide and 9% elastane would it be possible for tailor to find the exact fabric and custom make another piece?
Hi Carniolan, it's not easy but he can surely find a similar fabric with the same features and same knitting points/pattern, but the color will not be 100% the same due to metamerism. A tailor cannot reproduce a fabric, you have to ask to a knitting mill/weaving mill, but it will cost you a lot of money to study the fabric, project a new one, set up the machines, buy the correct yarn and knit/weave it!
@@textilewithalberto998 if i found the same type of clothing with the same fabric material composition in a shop how different can the fabric be really? Thanks
If it's the same clothing with the same fabric material, of course the fabric is the same. Clothing are always produced in series. Are you 100% sure it's the same fabric material?@@Carniolan
@@textilewithalberto998 i may have worded my question in a wrong way. I meant the same type of clothing with fabric consisting of 91% polyamide and 9% elastane
@@Carniolan Composition is not the only feature that distinguish one garment from another. You can have two fabrics with the same compositions, but different yarns, different yarn counts, different finishings, different type of weave/knitting patterns, different dyeing technologies. If you think about weaving and knitting alone, there are thousands of different weaving that you can make with the same yarn. If you put a fabric into a stenter for different time, the hand changes completely.
Great video! Could you apply dwr coatings to natural fabrics like linen? Do you know what more sustainable dwrs are made with these days? Thanks Alberto
DWR Coatings can be applied on linen fabrics. There are some fluorine-free DWR coatings that use some kind of natural waxes, but even though they are considered "green", the durability and the performances drastically decrease.
Thank you ! that was helpful :)
(Hai la mia stessa tastiera btw)
Grandissimo!
