Why directional velvet requires specialized cutting techniques in factories

Directional velvet is a very special kind of fabric with a unique feel and texture. It is very soft and luxurious making it a popular choice for both clothes, furniture and décor. However, cutting this fabric isn't as simple as you may first think and requires special techniques to ensure it looks good and functions well in any number of products. At WANXIE, we understand the importance of these techniques and how vital they are to the creation of high quality directional velvet items


Why Specialized Cutting Techniques are Essential for Directional Velvet in Wholesale Production

Cutting directional velvet is challenging because of the way in which the fabric is made. The fibers in directional velvet are all aligned in a specific direction. If the fabric is cut the wrong way then it is possible to produce uneven, or varying shades in certain areas. This phenomenon is known as 'shading' and it will totally ruin the aesthetic of any item made with the fabric. Consider, for instance, a gorgeous dress made from directional velvet. If the fabric isn't cut properly then it may not have a rich, consistent color throughout and this will inevitably make the dress less attractive


As well as having a distinct directional grain directional velvet often has a 'pile', the fluffy parts of the fabric which give it a wonderful soft feel. If this is crushed or cut incorrectly then instead of being smooth the fabric will be rough. This is why factories like WANXIE use cutting machines which are specifically designed for use with delicate fabrics such as directional velvet. These machines are capable of performing extremely accurate cuts, but the fibers are never pressed down. In addition to the machinery, workers in the factory must have a certain amount of training and experience when working with directional velvet; they have to take great care and time to ensure each cut is perfect


These techniques are particularly important as, typically, directional velvet is used in higher end products. Customers would have a certain expectation regarding quality and it is more than likely that cutting corners and not using the correct cutting techniques would not be met with satisfaction and could lead to complaints. This is exactly why companies such as WANXIE endeavor to train staff in the best cutting methods for directional velvet

How Directional Velvet Texture Influences Specialized Cutting Methods

Directional velvet is an extraordinary kind of fabric that is both soft and smooth; its aesthetic is so unique because its fibers are all woven in a single direction. This means that when the fabric is stroked it has a different feel in one direction to the other, the direction you are stroking in if you go one way will feel smooth, whereas going the other way would have a slight roughness to the touch. This is why the cutting techniques for directional velvet are somewhat special, you have to be very careful that the fabric is cut properly otherwise it may look out of sorts and have a different feel to it in the final product be it in an item of clothing or in furniture and more

To avoid this, workers must use cutting methods that allow them to cut the directional velvet in the correct direction, or have machinery that can be used at different angles according to the texture of the fabric. If you want to be completely sure that your directional velvet fabric is cut to perfection you need to find the right company to do so

 

What to Look for in a Factory When Sourcing Directional Velvet Cutting Techniques

When looking to purchase directional velvet there are several things that you should always look for in the factory providing the cutting service. The first of these is, unsurprisingly, how long the factory has been providing the cutting service, the longer they have been established, the more experienced they are likely to be when cutting directional velvet. In addition to this you should always ensure that a company employs workers who have a thorough knowledge of how to handle this kind of fabric, and that they are experienced with using the correct cutting machines required. Some machines, but not all, will be specific for cutting velvet so it is important to find a factory with machinery of this type


Next, it is important to consider how stringent their cutting techniques are; the workers should be taught specific procedures on how to cut the fabric at a certain angle depending on the direction of the fibers, you should always get a sample if possible so that you are satisfied that the fabric meets your standards. Finally, you must check what level of quality control a company provides. They will not necessarily provide high quality if they are not checking the quality of the cuts they produce; at WANXIE, for example, we have rigorous quality control checks to ensure that our customers always receive high quality fabric
