ChiuVention ICI Pilling and Snag Tester
The ICI Pilling and Snag Tester is designed to evaluate textiles for pilling and snagging resistance. The process begins by placing the fabric sample on a polyurethane tube, which is then inserted into a rotating chamber. As the chamber rotates at a consistent speed, the cork lining inside gently abrades the fabric, simulating real-life conditions that lead to pilling and snagging. After completing the specified number of rotations, the sample is carefully removed and compared against standard reference images to determine its pilling and snagging grade.
