yarn

All yarns currently manufactured by Toyotashigyo are gas singeing process. Gas-singed yarn is called gas yarn. This gas-singed yarn is made by exposing the fine fluff on the surface of the fibres to the flame of a gas burner, which burns off and removes the fluff from the surface.

Gassd yarn features

1. smoothness: the removal of surface fluff reduces the area in contact with the skin, resulting in a very smooth and light touch.

2. Gloss: A fine-grained, high-quality sheen is produced, making yarns and fabrics look more beautiful. Colour development during dyeing is also improved and the pattern comes out clearly. 

3. Strength: The uniform surface of the yarn reduces friction and increases the strength of the yarn.

4, durability: the yarn and fabric are less prone to pilling and last longer. Pilling grade increases.

Before gas firing, the fabric looks blurred, but when it is made into a fabric, the fluff is gone and the grain stands out. This gives the fabric a much more pleasant feel and a silky sheen.
