In the dyeing process, the fabric is typically scoured, bleached and dyed to the desired shade, with chemicals, which improves its color, appearance, and performance. In the finishing process, fabrics are treated with chemicals and equipment to impart specific characteristics such as wrinkle resistance, shrink resistance, anti-microbial properties, fire resistance, UV protection, etc.
