Crocking Cloth/Cotton Lawn

For Testing Colour Transfer

Crocking cloth, also known as cotton lawn or rubbing cloth, is used in a Crockmaster (Crockmeter) to check the amount of dye transfer, following a dry or wet rub fastness test. The dyed sample is rubbed, under controlled conditions, against the white crocking cloth. Subsequently, the degree of colour transfer is evaluated using a Grey Scale for assessing Staining.

Yellowing Test Kit (Phenolic yellowing)

One of many colour fastness tests, this is a predictive test to assess the potential of white or pastel-coloured yarns, fabrics or garments to yellow (garment yellowing). Our Test Kit is the original, developed by Courtaulds Research, for investigating complaints arising from transit or storage yellowing. Beware of copies and counterfeit products, which do not produce accurate or consistent results or might cause health and safety issues.

Grey Scales (For Assessing Colour and Staining)

There are two types of Grey Scale (Gray Scale) – one for assessing ‘colour change’ and one for assessing ‘staining’. The colour change scale consists of nine pairs of grey coloured chips, from grades 1 to 5. The staining scale consists of nine pairs of grey and white coloured chips, from grades 1 to 5. They are manufactured strictly in accordance with ISO 105-AO2 and -AO3. We stock the American and Japanese equivalents as well.
