GESTER Concludes a Highly Successful Exhibition at CAITME 2025 The 16th Central Asian International Textile Machinery Exhibition (CAITME 2025) was held from September 9 to 11 at the Uzexpocentre NEC in Tashkent. GESTER showcased textile testing equipment, including the Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester GT-C13B, Color Assessment Cabinet GT-D08, and Hydrostatic Head Tester GT-C26A. At the exhibition, a steady stream of clients visited the GESTER booth for product consultations. Among them, the newly upgraded Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester GT-C13B received consistent praise from international customers. Instead of the structure supported by steel balls, the new and upgraded design avoids the risk of uneven cover plate caused by ball wear. The cover plate can be folded and turned up to facilitate sample loading and test results. Many customers expressed that the GT-C13B Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester precisely matched the ideal product they had been seeking. Other GESTER products, such as the Color Assessment Cabinet GT-D08, Hydrostatic Head Tester GT-C26A, and Electronic Crockmeter GT-D04, also attracted significant attention. The GESTER Color Assessment Cabinet GT-D08 renders colors with greater accuracy. Equipped with six distinct light sources (D65, TL84, CWF, F, UV, U30), it effectively detects metamerism. Operation is simplified through individual switches for each light source. Digital Hydrostatic Head Tester is used to testing the waterproof properties of fabrics through waterproofing work such as canvas, coated fabrics, hood fabric, tarpaulin, rain-proof fabrics and geotextile. It features an internally installed water tank design and an original water pressure balance system, ensuring a stable and precise rate of rise. The Electronic Crockmeter GT-D04 evaluates textile colorfastness to dry or wet rubbing. Its pinned acrylic sample holder enables rapid sample mounting and consistent results. Temperature Humidity Test Chamber GT-C52 is for conditioning of samples prior to testing. It also can be used for a variety of materials of high - low temperature alternating test. The test temperature, humidity, time can be programmed. Provides conditions of temperature form -40degree to +150degree and of humidity form 20% to 98%. Temperature and Humidity Climatic Test Chamber: High quality appearance, Matte Line processing on the surface, and embedded and non-counteractive handle, easy operation, safe and reliable. The exhibition provided an excellent platform for GESTER to expand its market presence. Moving forward, GESTER will continue to committed to our customer-centric philosophy, delivering superior products and services to clients worldwide.

Color Fastness Tester Compliant with the ISO 105 Series Standards Colour fastness refers to a textile's ability to resist fading or discolouration when subjected to various external factors during processing, use, or storage, such as friction, washing, light exposure, or perspiration. Products with poor colour fastness are prone to colour loss or transfer onto other items, compromising appearance and quality. Such issues may even pose potential health risks due to dye migration. ISO 105 Series: Textile Colour Fastness Standards Compliance testing to the ISO 105 series constitutes the international standard for assessing textile colour fastness performance. These tests evaluate a textile's colour retention capability under diverse environmental conditions. Such assessments are crucial for ensuring colour stability during washing, friction, light exposure, perspiration and similar conditions, directly impacting product quality, durability and consumer satisfaction. What makes ISO 105 particularly valuable is its granular approach to colorfastness evaluation. Each subsection isolates specific environmental challenges: B-series: Light and weathering resistance C-series: Washing and laundering resilience E-series: Water and perspiration resistance X-series: Various mechanical factors (rubbing, etc.) Colour fastness tester according to ISO 105 series Principle Colour fastness is an important demand and refers to the resistance of colour to fade or bleed of a dyed or printed textile materials to various types of influences including water, light, rubbing, washing, perspiration, etc. to which they are normally exposed during textile manufacturing and in daily use. Standard test methods: a few examples Colour fastness to light ISO 105-B01:2014 specifies a method intended for determining the resistance of the colour of textiles of all kinds and in all forms to the action of daylight. ISO 105-B02:2013 specifies a method intended for determining the effect on the colour of textiles of all kinds and in all forms to the action of an artificial light source representative of natural daylight (D65). The method is also applicable to white (bleached or optically brightened) textiles. Light Fastness Testing Machine (Air-Cooled, Room Temperature) GT-D02A-2 This machine apply to light color fastness, anti-climate color fastness, light & perspiration color fastness and light aging tests of textile, paint, dye, coating, rubber, plastic, wood floor, paper and other materials, it have anti-climate functions of exposing to the rain, revolution and mist spraying. GESTER Light Fastness Testing Machine Standards: GB/T 8427, GB/T 8430, GB/T 14576, GB/T 15102, GB/T 15104, ISO 105-B02/B04, ISO 12040, ISO 11341, ATCC TM 16, AATCC 169, ASTM D5010, ASTM D4303,1, JIS L0843, M&S C09/C09A Colour fastness to laundering ISO 105-C06:2010 specifies methods intended for determining the resistance of the colour of textiles of all kinds and in all forms to domestic or commercial lau...

Understanding Color Fastness to Ozone What is an Ozone Test in Garments? Color fastness to Ozone (ozone test chamber) is intended for assessing the Ozone resistance of color of textiles of all kinds and in all forms when exposed to atmosphere with certain temperature and humidity. Assessing Ozone Resistance. How Do you Test for Ozone Resistance? 1. Add purified water at the water filling point of the ozone test chamber. 2. The water level should be increased to about 60-70. Turn on the power air switch at the back of the machine. 3. Press [Power] button at the panel to turn on the power. [Lighting] is the button to turn on the light in the test chamber. 4. Click [Fix Test] to enter fix test page. 5. Set the test temperature and humidity according to the standard. 6. Click [Start] to run the test. After the displayed temperature and humidity reach the set value and become stable. 7. Start to set the concentration value of the ozone meter. 8.Click [《PF] and up & down arrow to set the ozone concentration value. Warm tips: Please set the ozone concentration according to standard. Place the sample on the sample holder in the test chamber. 9. Click [Ozone] to turn on the ozone, ozone value starts to increase. When the test time specified in the standard is reached, it means the test is completed. Press the [Ozone] ozone switch to turn off ozone and press [CLEAR] the ozone clearing switch. 10. When the ozone in the test chamber is cleared, the light of the [CLEAR] button will go out. 11. When the [CLEAR] button is dark, it shows that the current ozone value in the test chamber is low, and the sample can be taken out. How to Improve Color Fastness to Ozone? The ozone colourfastness testing system places the sample in an ozone environment of a certain concentration until a certain colour change occurs or a specified time has elapsed, after which it is compared with a standard colour chart. Although ozone is present in very low concentrations in the atmosphere, it can significantly affect the colour of textile dyes. The Ozone Resistance Test Chamber simulates and intensifies atmospheric ozone conditions to study the mechanisms by which ozone affects fabric colourfastness. It provides a rapid method for evaluating fabric resistance to ozone-induced colour fading and assessing the efficacy of ozone-resistant agents, enabling the implementation of appropriate measures to prevent colour fading and thereby extend the service life of textiles.
