Viscose jersey: preparing the specification

Yaro-Tex

Agree composition, usable width, weight, colour and wash performance together when ordering viscose jersey.

Start with the garment

A loose dress and fitted top need different specifications. Explain the style, season and handle; a physical reference sample is more useful than a photograph alone.

Compare equivalent specifications

g/m² measures mass per square metre, not per linear metre. Compare quotations at the same width, composition and finishing, including agreed parameter tolerances.

Check after care

Before cutting the collection, test washing, dimensions, seams and twisting. Do not assume one shrinkage figure applies to every viscose quality.

Keep the approved reference

Retain the sample, colour number and specification. For repeat orders, identify the previous batch and explain shade-matching requirements so the comparison refers to a specific fabric.
