The producers of POWERED CLOTH® are clearly identified in every process, from raw materials and yarns to weaving and processing, and all of them are controlled under Kowa's strict quality standards. In particular, we have some of the best engineers in Japan in the fields of weaving and processing technology, and based on our own formulas and theories, we produce high-quality, outstanding fabrics that cannot be achieved by machine manufacturing alone.

Move

For the POWERED CLOTH®, we set certain standards for elongation and elongation recovery rates, which affect comfort, and calculate the best elastane yarn thickness, draft rate (twist), and balance of warp and weft density to take advantage of the characteristics of each textile. A Kowa engineer with more than 30 years of experience in spinning and weaving once said, “Making fabrics is a multiplication of physics and chemistry.”

Delivery

Although it is a combination of logical and logical, only the experience of the engineer can tell you what to put and in what quantity. Even if the same loom is used, the fabric will be different depending on who makes it. Even if the blending ratio and the density are the same, the look and feel of the fabric will be very different.
