Online Ordering and Just-in-Time Manufacturing of Laser-Finished Garments

An on-demand manufacturing of apparel system includes online customization and ordering of garments, previewing of the garments, manufacturing including laser finishing of garments, and delivery to the customer. Laser finishing of apparel products reduces finishing cost, lowers carrying costs, increases productivity, shortens time to market, be more reactive to trends, reduces product constraints, reduces lost sales and dilution, and more. Fabric templates can be used to produce a multitude of laser finishes. Operational efficiency is improved.

Purified concentrated aqueous leucoindigo salt solutions
11384245 · 2022-07-12 · ·

Aqueous leucoindigo solution comprising an aromatic amine, in particular aniline or aniline and N-methylaniline, wherein the concentration of the aromatic amine is below 200 ppm, wherein the leucoindigo salt in the solution is in the form of a mixed sodium and potassium salt, wherein the molar ratio of sodium to potassium is in the range of from above 3:1 to 10:1, preferably wherein the concentration of the salt is in the range of from above 25 to 45% by weight, based on the total weight of the solution.

Preventing Degradation of Stored Base Templates Before Laser Finishing

Indigo-dyed garments are treated with an anti-ozone agent to prevent ozone-related degradation of the garments before laser finishing. Without treatment, the garments can exhibit color loss (e.g., color change or fading) from exposure to ozone in the atmosphere. The indigo-dyed garments with anti-ozone treatment can serve as base templates in a laser finishing process flow. The anti-ozone treatment of the base templates can include a rinse including an ascorbic acid or vitamin C constituent during a base preparation process. Then quantities of these base templates can manufactured and stored for periods of time without exhibiting ozone-related degradation effects.
